Editor’s Note: Mr. Allen Hymel, the author of the following piece on the 1958 St. James High football team, stopped by a few weeks ago to deliver his article to be published and as the 2023 Wildcats prepare to play for a State Championship this Friday, I thought this week would be a fitting week to bring Hymel’s story to our readers. Enjoy!
