1941 Football Summary By ARMAND CARLUCCI Football Coach John Brace served his second year as mentor of the Conneaut High School football squad. His ability was proven by the way he pepped his boys into tackling strong teams outside and inside the Lake Shore League. Below is a summary of each football game. Conneaut’s Trojans displayed their early power and threat to the Lake Shore League by deadlocking with Meadville’s Bulldogs, 6-6 at Meadville’s Athletic Park, Friday, September 18. Rex Gaugh intercepted a Bulldog pass and scampered 70 yards for Conneaut’s lone goal. The game was decided a moral victory for Conneaut. The Sons of Troy won another moral victory from the favored Fail-port Skippers by deadlocking the score at 7 at Municipal Stadium, Friday, September 26. In then-first Lake Shore League game, Conneaut scored on successive line plunges by Cowden, Grable, Gaugh, and Tully. Colby’s place kick was good for an extra point. The Trojans won their first league victory over Harbor’s Mariners, 20-14, at Wenner Field, October 4. Bill Cowden set a 1941 record by gaining 184 yards with his nimble feet. Colby, Cowden and Reo scored for Conneaut. Painesville’s Red Raiders rolled over Conneaut’s Trojans at Municipal Stadium, October 11, by turning in a 25-7 score. Joe Townsend, former East Conneaut lad, cracked the powerful Conneaut line to score three touchdowns for the Raiders. Carle-ton scored the other touchdown for Painesville while Tully scored the lone goal for Conneaut. Geneva’s Eagles stumped Conneaut fans at Geneva, October 18, by deadlocking with Conneaut’s highly favored Trojans, 6-6. A sophomore, Mellie Sanzotta, scored on a pass for Geneva and Nick Colby scored the same way for Conneaut. Both touchdowns were scored in the first quarter. The last three stanzas were a stubborn fight between Geneva and Connaut. Conneaut walloped Cleveland Central, 19-2, at Municipal Stadium, October 24. Gaugh, Cowden, and Tully scored for Conneaut. The Cleveland eleven garnered two points by spilling Howard Grable behind the Trojan goal line. The Trojans and Coach John Brace were the happiest men in the league after they crushed Ashtabula’s Panthers, 47-0, at Municipal Stadium, October 31.
