(joldsboro Pins Pulldogs 10-6 Although statistically inferior, an op- portunistic Goldsboro eleven pulled out a 10-6 victory over the Fayetteville squad. The Bulldogs squandered many excellent scoring chances while the Goldsboro Quakes cashed in on two of their early attempts. An early Bulldog drive to the Quakes’ 16 yard line was to no avail. The Quakes returned the 4th down punt for good yardage, which sparked a march of 84 yards in 10 plays for their initial score. Later on, a field goal put a Bulldog victory out of r each. The lone Fayetteville points came as a result of a blocked punt, credited to Chuck Hickey and Albert Bryant, that put the ball on the Quakes’ 25 yard ' line. Ricky Jenkins took a hand-off from the 1 and plunged over the goal line. The conver- sion was unsuccessful. Ricky Jenkins tackles a Goldsboro Quake and captures a fumble. Chip Bishop gains extra yardage, but is quickly cut down by the Goldsboro defense. 159
