Sugar Land Elementary Pee Wee Football Team Wins Bellaire Bowl, 1951


I was talking with Leon Anhaiser (SLHS '57) this past week about SLHS football. He asked me if I knew which teams went undefeated, so I mentioned the '38 team (regular season only), 1953 team (regional champs), and 1956 team (also regional champs). He said I was missing one, so he sent me the following item.



The SL Elementary Pee Wees were undefeated in the fall of 1951 and won the Bellaire Bowl. I'd remembered a reference to the team, but didn't know they were undefeated. See the following picture from the 1953 Gator. Also notice they used The Box just like the big boys.

    The 1958 SLHS football team also went undefeated (12 & 0) and was regional champs.
    I played on the 58 team and the 51 pee wee team.

    Thanks,
