VARSITY FGOTBALL Talent and Effort Produce Success .s'.y' J. . A .W-1:'?fi 't .2425 ! o.,1d,. :'- 'I Captains Stephan, Thomas, Squires, Callan, Coach Rybicki Coach Rybicki set the precedent on the first day of practice saying There is no such thing as a free lunch. The team prevailed with this attitude through- out the season. After twelve players had attended Football Camp in August, the team was in good shape for double sessions before school. A practice tone of high intensity was maintained under the leadership of captains Marty Stephan, Tony Thomas, Dave Callan and Iared Squires. An inexperienced team with only seven seniors was a concern in the opening game against St. Sebastians. However, these worries were soon dispelled.Tony Thomas's awesome pre-season running attack was hampered by an injury. Marty Stephan maintained his running attack, rushing for 221 yards, 25 carries, 4 touchdowns and two extra points supported by running back Mike Morison. The BB8tN game was another victory for the Governors. The second half was marked by clean execution and constant momentum. Thomas scored first and was set up for another on a Pete Diamond fumble recovery. The final blow to BB8zN came in a 54 yard romp late in the fourth quarter. GDA had already established an awesome reputation in rushing, totaling 712 yards in the first two games. MVP Stephan Playing undefeated Thayer was a high point in the season. Thayer held a half time lead 7-6. In the second half, the Governors fumbled but regained the ball with one minute to play. Set up by a Callahan reception, Pingree passed to Stephan for the winning touch- down. The Governors' defensive strength became apparent as they held the Thayer team that had Front Row: P.
