NOISIEST .....,................................ Harold Grady 'Z I x FOOTBALL o n '1- The 1946 season ranked high in the history of our high school athletic records with seven wins and one defeat. The team rolled up an imposing total of 254 points while the opposing teams scored only a total of 72 points. Ansonia was rated highly in the state schol- astic circles. The Co-Captains were Frank Alu and Joseph Giannone. The school was honored also in the choice of an All-State team. On this mythical eleven the defensive and offensive playing of Ray Cicia earned him the position of tackle, while Tony Ortali was similarly honored by being chosen as an end, due to the excel- lence of his catches and defensive playing. Frankie Alu was awarded a place on the second team, while Sam Hoston, Sam Sampieri and Tommy Casagrande were given honorable mention. Another further honor was granted the school with the announcement from the Connecticut interscholastic Athletic Conference that the Committee on Awards of Merit in Football had chosen Ansonia as one of the schools to be recognized for its outstanding season and also that a suitable trophy was to be given to the school.
