Resume of the Football Season of ’08-’09 With only three of last year’s regulars in school viz: McLane, Shearer and Bashore, two subs, Durovick and Ricca, and the hardest Prep School schedule in the country, things did not look very favorable at the beginning of the season. However, as soon as school opened, we started working with a squad of thirty-five and no coaches. Our first game was with the Indians. The coach, Mr. Wilder, of Roches- ter University, had only been with us two days,. but in this game, the team showed some good qualities, predominant among which was the ability to take punishment. On the following Saturday we went to Philadelphia, and in a very loose game were defeated 1 8-0 by the Penn Freshmen. Penn won by superior luck, rather than by better playing, for the game was replete with poor plays from start to finish. On the next Saturday the team lost 16-0 to the best coached and trained football team in the country, that of the Hill School. This game showed our team up as being slow and as individuals, not in condition. Very much bruised and crippled, we had to succumb to an inglorius defeat. 34-0 at the hands of our old rival, Mercersburg Academy, on the next Saturday. The long halves which the Mercersburg coaches de- manded, wore our team completely out, for their opponents secured four touchtowns in half the time A. M. McLane, Capt. it took them to score their first one. On the next Saturday we played our first and best home game, and defeated the much-vaunted Villa Nova Prep team 6-0. This was the only really significant victory of the season, although the next three Saturdays we overwhelmed Penbrook A. C., F. M. Academy and Harrisburg Technical High School. We finished Joseph F. Ricca. 74
