1947 Trojan Football Team

2009 Hall of Fame Inductee - Team

Led by coach Bill McLaughlin, the Everett Junior College Trojans fielded one of the strongest junior college football teams in the country in 1947 by completing the season unbeaten and untied in 10 straight games. By virtue of their unbeaten status the EJC team was awarded the Washington State junior college football championship. They were also invited to the first ever Evergreen Bowl game (the first game in Everett Memorial Stadium) and were the only undefeated junior college team on the Pacific coast.
