1961
The Jaguars Join the WPIAL
A Year of Firsts:
The 1961 Jaguars entered into their first season of officially being a member of the WPIAL as a "AA" school. The team had a strong senior class, and an up and coming underclass that would carry the team. The team was coached by Art Conner in his third year at the helm, defeated arch rival Brentwood and Elizabeth Forward for the first time.
