Second Victory
Of New Season
The Cardinals racked up victory
number two of the season Thurs
day evening at Hartington as they
gave their best performance in
tliree seasons of 11-man football,
bringing home a win of 21-0.
A strong defense led By Cal
Peter, Terry Tomjack and R. Be
lina limited the Trojans to only
11 yards rushing, and didn’t allow
a first down until late in the third
quarter. It wasn't until after the
Cards had built up a 21-0 mar
gin that the Trojans were able
to muster anything in the way of
an offense and this came via a
desperation air attack.
Offensively the Cards paraded
5 fine running backs as they
ground out 248 yards rushing.
Gene Shoemaker with 66 yards,
Norman Mudloff, 47, Steve Hig
gins, 46, Jim Spitzenberger, 51,
and Belina, 38 yards, were run
ning at top form, and it was well
that they were as the huge Trini
ty forward wall kept constant
pressure on the Academy for
wards all evening.
The Cards marched 58 yards
for their first touchdown in the
opening quarter on a 14-play
drive which was capped by Spit
zenberger going in from the 3
yard line. Mudloff added the ex
tra point.
Two plays later the Cards again
had possession of the ball via a
fumble recovered by Rich Pon
gratz on Trinity’s 39. With Shoe
maker and Spitzenberger packing
the load they moved to the 10 be
fore being halted iby a fumble.
a po/*r\n/1 K o I f wrifVi
Trinity unable to gain and punt
ing to the Cards 20. An 80-yard
drive put the Cards into paydirt
for the second time as Mudloff
finished off the march with a 7
yard thrusi over tackle and Spit
zenberger connected with Tom
Wanser for the extra point.
The final quarter started with
SMA on their own 36 from which
they proceeded goalward, and 6
plays later Wanser took a pass
from Spitzenberger and raced 15
yards for the score. Spitzenberg
er to Higgins made the extra
point.
Two nice pass plays by Trinity
put them in paydirt as they con
nected on a 48-yard pass and run
before Wanser pulled the man
down from behind. Two plays lat
er they hit on a 22-yard pass for
the score.
All in all it was a fine team ef
fort with good blocking by the
forward wall and good tackling
by each player.
