Don Witt, quarterback for Sub T, immediately lofted a 55-yard strike to john Wilson to give Sub T the football championship. The victory indicated one of the factors in winning an intramural championship. Did Sub T-16 have the best team? Not necessarily. Galaxy defeated the Subbers in regular season. But Galaxy's timing was off, and they reached their peak in late season and early in the playoffs. Sub T shook off the regular season loss and peaked at the right time. In the women's championship football game, Delta Theta used a strong performance from Tanya Rogers to deny the DJ.'s a second consecutive football championship. Strong winds closed down DJ.'s passing attack, turning the game into a defensive struggle. The basketball season was surprising and unpredictable at its worst. The championship game ended the same way. With Old Men leading 51-50 and four seconds left in the lf game,john Lewis of the Commodores dribbled the ball off his leg to turn the ball over to Old Men. Cecil Eager then threw a length-of-the-court pass to Ron Elston, who collided with Ron Evans of the Commodores. The foul was called on Elston, and Evans canned both ends of a one-and-one to lift the Commodores to a 52-51 victory over Old Men. The element of dedication made itself clear in the trek of the Commodores. They gave up every Saturday to practice two hours as a team, and the work paid off. After squeezing by Who Cares, the Commodoes crushed Galaxy and Frats en route to the finals. Although many thought Old Men were the most surprising team, they had the talent to get to the finals and walked past Sub T and Trojans for a berth in the finals. The womens championship did not play second fiddle to the men. Siggies edged Swish 27-25 to win the title. The game was a defensive struggle from start to finish. The
