The ball then went to Stamford, the Orange and Black making no noticeable gain. When possession of the ball was returned, Peterson and Giordano ploughed back to the Stamford seven- teen-yard line. Bella launched a thrilling aerial to Gault in the end-zone, but it was called back because the pass-receiver was out of bounds. Giordano scored from the eight, and Fiorita's kick was good, tying the score at 7-7. Toward the end of the second quarter, Banks inter- cepted a pass and ran to Stamford's thirty-seven yard line. The Red and White marched to the eight, and from there Giordano scored. The extra point was not good. Greenwich was ahead 13-7 at the half. Neither side was able to score during the third quarter. The Orange and Black fought to the Greenwich twelve- yard line, but hopes of scoring were shattered when Bella recovered a fumble on the eight. In the last quarter Greenwich fought its way to the Stamford one-yard line, from which Bella scored on a quarterback sneak. The conversion was good, and the Big Red led 20-7. With only a few minutes left in the game, Stamford attempted to score with a desper- ate aerial offensive. Fiorita intercepted, and sprinted forty-one yards to the end-zone. He kicked his third extra point, and the game ended in a smashing 27-7 victory for Greenwich. The game was more than iust a victory over Stam- ford, it was the culmination of a perfect season of nine wins and no defeats. lt also clinched Greenwich's first State Championship with possession of the coveted Waskowitz Trophy, the symbol of this championship falling to Greenwich for the first time. To everyone on the team should go credit for tack- ling a big iob and doing it better than it had ever been done before.
