PIGSKIN ROUND-UP For the first time since 1926 our Utica Redskins won an undisputed championship. The Redskins won seven games and tied only one, and that to Loudonville. This 1945 squad was probably the biggest and fastest team ever to represent Utica. The first eleven was made up of seven seniors, two juniors, one sophomore, and one freshman. There are eight boys on our squad who won honors. Mr. Yarman, our coach, was very successful in turning out an undefeated football team. This 1945 team will be remembered as one of the best Utica has ever had. 1945 FOOTBALL SCORES Utica. ....
