David Lawrence Bowman

The CGHS Class of 1971 wishes to share and honor David Bowman with an achievement he obtained as a senior "Black Knight" football player. During the November 6, 1970 Friday night name against Roswell, David exceeded all previous CGHS individual players, achieving 219 Receiving Yards in a game according to GHSFHA online records. He held that school record for 41 years, with only three other CGHS players bypassing his record in the past 55 years!
Margaret Holt Mathis remembers when David ran back after making the catch, the play that contributed to the bulk of his yards in that game. David´s Dad, Larry, was so excited, he was running on the track by the fence where the cheerleaders were cheering, and almost knocked them down. Larry ran the whole way to the end zone with David. Great memory to share in honor of our beloved classmate, David Bowman.

David was greatPGA pro and always promoted golf. Always smiling and friendly when you walked into the pro shop
Just a great guy
RIP David.
