Eden Prairie’s miscues appeared to be continuing into the second half when the first drive, which got to St. Anthony’s 15, was stopped by a fumble. Then the touchdown march started when George Adzick returned a punt to the St. Anthony 42. Eden.Prai- rie marched to the St. Anthony 13, but a good defensive move by end Tom Bloom- quist left the Eagles with a 4th-and-l7 situation on the 20. LeGrand swung to his left, then cut diagonally toward the end zone to meet a perfectly timed pass by Westerhaus at the goal line for the score. Faking a run for the extra points, Westerhaus flipped the ball to end Jim Erickson, who was stand- ing alone in the end zone, for the winning margin.
