Time Travel: A 1971 Score at Bridgeport High School and Decades Ago with Victory, Other School's Hi-Ys

By Dick Duez on September 28, 2025 from History Blog

This photo is from the 1971 season and it shows Phil Nicewarner (10) going in for a touchdown as Steve Stout (42) trails on the play in action against Lewis County. Bridgeport won the contest 68-0 and went 9-1 on the year with the only loss being a 14-12 setback to East Fairmont.
There is little information on this combination photo from many decades ago. However, it appears to be members of several school's Hi-Y programs.Locally, in the top of the combined photo to the right if Victory High School and to the bottom left is Elkins High School. If you have any information on this photo, please include it in the comment section below.
 
EDITOR'S NOTE: This ongoing photo feature of pictures from Bridgeport and throughout the Mountain State is part of local historian Richard "Dick" Duez's collection, the unofficial historian of Bridgeport, would appreciate any scanned photos emailed to him for use here or to include in his ongoing efforts to preserve local history. You can email photos, or let him know how to acquire copies of photos you may have in your possession, to Duez at dickdo@citynet.net.
