It is my pleasure to welcome our community and visitors to the 2009
Panther Football season. I would like to thank all of you for the support
of our program and our young men. Our coaches and our teams are
looking forward to a great season and hope you will be a part of it each and
every night.
Our Panther players have finished a successful summer of seven a.m.
workouts in the weight room, playing in 7 on 7 competitions and going
through a very challenging I.S.U. Team Camp. We return 6 players with
starting experience on offense and 6 with starting experience on defense.
Along with this we have a number of players that have varsity playing
experience from last year’s 10-2 season.
I would like to thank all of those who help to make our off-season program
successful for our young men. We had another very successful Panther 7 on
7 passing tournament and lineman challenge. The success of this day was
due to the hard work of our parents and volunteers. Our 12th Man Golf
outing was a success as always. I would like to thank all of the volunteers
and donors that make it possible.
In Closing, thank you to the Washington community, parents, members of
the 12th Man and all the volunteers that give so much to our players and
football program. You make Washington a great place for our players to
compete and grow up. You all help them to learn, grow and develop as
young men, on the field, and in the classroom and community. Please join
us this year in making this another great Panther Football Season.
Sincerely,
Joe & Kris Bullard

12th Man
Good Evening Panther Fans,
On behalf of the Panther 12th Man Organization, I would like to welcome you to
Babcook Field, home of our Washington Panthers. The 2009 football team looks to be one
of the best we have had. This season should prove to be fun and exciting. Let’s show our
team our support and recognize their hard work as they make a run for the state title.
In 1983 the Washington Panther 12th Man was organized by Charlie Fuller and a small
group of very dedicated individuals. Over the years, the 12th Man has invested thousands
of dollars in our football program and players, as well as other sports and organizations
here at Washington Community High School. I would like to thank all of the volunteers
and members who have so generously supported our programs over the years. Their contributions of time and money have made it possible for our student athletes to have the
best equipment and facilities, enabling them to have a positive and memorable experience.
This summer marked the 21st annual 12th Man Golf Outing. Once again, the day was
a huge success thanks to the volunteers who helped organize and run the event, as well as
the golfers who make this event one of the best golf outings in the area. During the last
few years alone, proceeds from the golf outing have been used to develop a $30,000 weight
room that is available to all students who attend WCHS, a reconditioned playing surface
on the football field, an underground watering system for the football field, coaches headsets, scouting software, and an assortment of quality football equipment to ensure the
safety and competitiveness of our players.
Along with our annual 12th Man Golf Outing, the 12th Man organizes the Washington
Panther 7-on-7 Tournament. This year, twenty-nine teams competed in the tournament
and the Lineman’s Challenge. Again, thank you to the many volunteers who made this
a successful day for all who attended.
Here’s to a successful 2009 football season. GO PANTHERS!!!!
Bob Brown
12th Man Director

Gary Moehle
In Memory of
1948—2009
Washington Community High School’s 12th Man Organization, founded
in 1983, is a volunteer-run organization for the football enthusiast,
but not just any team. Specifically Washington Panther football. This
program is only successful because of the many dedicated supporters over
the years. Gary Moehle was one of these supporters of the 12th Man from
the beginning by sponsoring pre-game team meals. He continued to
contribute to this organization over the next three decades.
A Washington Community High School graduate himself, Gary played for the Panthers as
an offensive lineman from 1962—1965. His jersey number was 65.
The WCHS Booster Club was another organization that Gary served, and was the director
from 1987—89, which was several years before his children even attended the high school.
He really felt strongly about supporting the community, the high school, and the athletic
program there.
Gary and some of his buddies could always be seen at home games in the “Panther Pit,” which
was the upper section of the visitor’s bleachers near the scoreboard. Up there, they would cheer
loudly for the Panthers, smoke cigars, and often videotape games.
Gary’s sons, Matt and Jon, also enjoyed playing Washington Panther football, and all of
Gary’s children look forward to his grandchildren attending WCHS and being apart of the
proud tradition of Panther athletics.

Attention Panther Football Alumni!
Washington Community High School football dates back
to 1923 and is a proud and rich tradition. 2009 marks the
beginning of an alumni association geared towards linking the
past with the present and forming a network of former players.
We will support Panther Football. We will honor our great teams
and players of the past and support our team today.
We want you to be a part of this effort. If you are a former
football Panther, no matter if in 1958 or 2008, please log on to
pantherfootballalumni.com or contact Kenny Hopp, Brad Fuller,
or Rich Burk to find out what events we have planned and
become part of the proud tradition of Panther Football Alumni.
