Bottom: Even the pa- rade floats express the Colonel pride. Regardless of the weather, 16,300 Colonel football fans turned out in full force to support their team on Homecoming. They were treated to a fantastic football game in return. The fans released the traditional first score balloons filling the sky over Hanger Field with maroon as Dale Dawson posted three points with a twenty-five yard field goal. Youngstown State answered with two first quarter touchdowns. Through sprinkling rain the quarter closed with the University team trailing 14-3. The second quarter brightened with a Rocky Hendricks intercep- tion, setting up a Bohler touch- down. The Colonels began to mount a comeback by closing the gap to 14-10. A James Crawford touchdown put the Colonels on top in the sec- ond quarter. The scoring run set a record for Crawford. This play gave him the title of the seventh player in University history to compile a 2000 rushing yard career. The Colonels extended their lead to 24-14 on Mike Cadore ' s touchdown and Dawson ' s conver- sion. The Penguins went to the locker room to regroup for the sec- ond half trailing 24-14. A Youngstown Penguin picked off a Colonel pass midway through the third quarter with a comfort- able lead of 31-17, and two con- secutive quarterback sacks to pro- pell them into the closing period. The third quarter momentum carried the Colonels through an- other scoring drive, chilling the Penguins ' hopes of a comeback and posting a final score of 38-17. Photos by Sam Maples Student Life 21

Then the announce- ment came, the second runner-up was Phi Sigma ' s Jennifer Price, a biology major from Crestview Hills. Alice York, a physical education major from Albany sponsored by Gamma Beta Phi, was chosen first runner-up.
