Bruins' breaks, bruises offset a good start Injurier and initiative were two key words for the 1970 edition of the Bruin football squad. Injuries cost several starters early in the season. But, despite these injuries, the team ended the season with a respectable 5-5 record. The Bruins opened their season with Adams Central and won easily on su- perior passing and rushing, 34-6. The team failed in its CIC opener with El- wood, 14-22. A rivalry with Tipton proved an in- centive, and BHS won, 25-7. Blackford then dominated the game with Missi- ssinewa and easily won, 55-6. Peru also was a stimulus to the Bruins, who won, 7-6, in a closely contested game. Blackford lost to Wabash in a CIC game, 21-0. It was the first shutout ever against the Bruins, who were outrushed 214 yards to 57. Huntington, the Home- coming foe, dominated every phase of that game to win a CIC contest, 51-O.
