VARSITY FOCTBALL First row: Place, Bray, Just, Pingitore J., Schreiner, Suntheimer, Studioso, Morton, Lowenthal, Cusack, McIlwain. Second row: Mr. Hoehn, Coach, Slatoff, Hendricks, Scholes, Rickett, Sottos, Mr. Applegate, Coach, Amerman, Todd, Audino C., Opdyke, Peppler, Mr. Verdel, Coach. The 1954 B.M.I varsity football team had a rough time, it accomplished something more valuable and enduring. Under the able leader- ship of coaches, Mr. Robert Hoehn and Mr. Al Verdel and Co-captains Gene Studioso and Dick Morton, the squad acquired a great deal of teamwork, and most of all, team spirit. The season began at Penns Grove High School, where the cadets fought hard, but didnit have enough strength to beat the high flying home club. The first home game was against Peddieg they ran up a score of 19-0. The week after the Peddie contest, a very 841 powerful Princeton University freshman 'gB,' team came to B.M.I. They beat us by a 39-0 count. Probably the best game of the year was when the team went to Elizabeth to play Pingry School. Although the cadets played top notch ball on the muddy field, their last quarter rally of two touchdowns was not enough to pass the three that Pingry had scored in the first three quarters. Despite the disappointment of having no wins, the players enjoyed working together and are looking forward for a better record next year.
