The visitors kicked to King, and both teams were unable to score in the exchange of punts. However, late in the first quarter, Captain Fred Willis broke into the clear and raced 45 yards for the score, with Ron Sebra adding the extra point. An upset seemed to be in the making. Never the less, the Knollmen's defense stiffened for the rest of the half as they held the upset-minded Colonial Roaders scoreless while they managed to make a TD, but missing the extra point. The Kingsmen kicked to open up the second half, and Cedar Knolls returned it to mid field. On the next play Ron Sebra intercepted a pass. The Maroon and White were anxious to attain a touchdown lead against their powerful opponents, but on the next play Fred Willis fumbled and the visitors again took over, using a series of screen passes as they stole the lead from the Kingsmen, 13-7. By now the Kingsmen's lack of substitutes began to show as the first team became fatigued in trying desperately to hold their foes, who had three teams of players on their bench, to only 13 points. Leading by a 13-7 score, the visitors began to make insurance touchdowns against their collapsing opponents. Their final two scores came as their speedy halfbacks began to show fine broken-field-running skill. The final score read Cedar Knolls 25 - King 7. The next game was played against Hamden Hall, and was also played on the King gridiron. The Maroon and White won the toss and elected to receive. After three unsuccessful downs, Fred Willis' punt was blocked by the onrushing Hall line, and they took over deep in King Territory. On the next play the visitors scored and also added the extra point. The Colonial Roaders took the kickofi and brought if up to mid field. Then two first down runs by Varnum id Willis moved the ball to the Hall 5 yard line. From 'here Ron Sebra plunged over. The extra point attempt was unsuccessful. After receiving the kickoff, the Hallers marched sixty yards on eight plays to increase their lead to 15-6, Clark Varnum took the kickoff and raced to the Hamden Hall 15. From there Willis took it to the four yard line. An attempt to score by Sebra failed, but on the next play Fred Willis dived over to make it 13-12 in favor of the visitors. This was the score as the half ended. The half opened as the Kings- men kicked off. The Hall team was unable to gain and were forced to punt. The next two plays resulted in five yard losses for the Maroon and White. The quick kick was blocked and the Hall team again took over deep in King territory as a result of a blocked punt. On the next play the Hamden team scored to make it 20-12. Varnum took the kickoff and brought it to the King 30 yard market. Then Sebra passed to Willis, bringing it to the Hall 20 yard line. A bad pass from center was fumbled by the King backfield, and the Hall team again took over in the midst of a King scoring drive. From there another sus- tained drive resulted in the fourth touchdown for the visitors. Time was running out on the Colonial Roaders, so a trick play was needed. The ball was snapped to Willis, who passed to Schwebel, who in turn lateraled to Varnum, who raced 60 yards, crossing the goal as the game ended. The final score was 27-18, in favor of Hamden Hall. lf., if Returning to the road, the Maroon and White traveled to Daycroft, eager to get back into the win column. Francis Colegrove was moved into the backfield to take the place of Ron Sebra, who suffered a fractured rib in a scrimmage. The Daycrofe kickoff went out of bounds, so the Kingsmen took over on their own 15 yard stripe. Unable to gain, the Kingsmen punted. The Daycroft team took over on their 15 and marched 65 yards to lead 7-0. After an exchange of punts, Fred Willis made two first down jaunts, bringing the ball to the Daycroft 20. On the next play Varnum dashed around end to make it 7-6. After returning the kickoff to mid-field, the home forces scored again, using 250 pound Bob Plank as a battering ram fulback through the King Line. However, the Maroon and White struck back on the first play after the kickoff as Clark Varnum passed to Willis, who raced 25 yards to score. The extra point kick went wide of the crossbars. With the score 14-12, Fred Willis' kickoff was taken on the goal line by a speedy Daycroft halfback, who sped over the muddy turf for an 80 yard touchdown run. This ended the scoring in the f1irst half, leaving the score 20-12 in favor of the Daycroft six. The second half was a battle of defenses. The sharp tackling of Fred Willis and Clark Varnum stopped the Daycroft athletes from any further scoring. Nevertheless, the Kingsmen had their difficulties also, as they fumbled the ball on three occasions when they were inside their opponents' 10 yard line. When the final whistle sounded, the Maroon and White found themselves on the short end of a 20-12 score in being handed defeat No. 3. Still playing with the absence of their bulling fullback Ron Sebra, the Varsity invaded the Roosevelt field, where they were heavy favorites to easily down the Blue and White team. King kicked to Roosevelt and after 5 unsuccessful plays were forced to punt. On the next play Roosevelt recovered a fumble, taking over deep in King Territory, nevertheless the defense of the Maroon and White stiffened and they took over again, using passes to make the TD - the final one from Willis to Varnum. After Roosevelt scored their touchdown, Francis Colegrove carried the kick- off 70 yards to the Roosevelt 3, from where Varnum passed to Willis making the score 15-6 in favor of King. The Kingsmen added another touchdown before the half ended with Fred Willis again screen passing to Clark Varnum and the score. The Colonial Roaders felt sure that another victory would be theirs. Yet in the second half, the Roosevelt team made several spirited drives. In the third quarter a long pass paid off, making the score 20-13. Then an intercepted pass went all the way to make the score 20-20. After the kickoff to King the Maroon and White were unable to move against the Roosevelt six. Finally punting. On sec- ond down a Roosevelt fumble went bouncing into the King end zone, where an alert Roosevelt lineman fell on it, giving the underdogs a 26-20 lead. The Kingsmen were now desperate. They fought savagely to retain their lead, only to have a TD drive fall inches short of the goal on 4th down. On the next play Willis trapped a Roosevelt back in the end zone, making the final score Roosevelt 26, King 22. fs..-G '46 div 1 Back row left to rlght Don Robertson CMgrD Jrmmy Cummrngs Kevrn Pye Paul Barth john Dorfa Bob Reynolds Vrnme Rmnella john Rahnn Rrehard Prnce Clrve R1ce Stephen Eldrldge Coach Cooper Front rovy john Teets Bob Rondano john Lace Todd Varnum john Karukas Mrchael Dean Alan Leyrne Drcle Anderson Brll D1Ilen Slexpper Webb JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL 1955 The unror Varsrty Football squad drd not lrye up to the1r expectat1ons and they lost fiye games While vylnnlng none However the team was handrcapped by myurres to several rmportant players throughout the season Yet the boys yyho d1d play shovyed hne Splf1I gamrng the exper rence vyhreh should make them 1 strong contender for league honors next year Onee agarn Mr Cooper drd an excellent yob consrderrng the lack of eand1d1tes Thls years team LOnSlSIf.'d of CoC1pta1ns ohn lx1rultas 1nd Chye Rlee Mrlee Dem Todd N 1rnum R1eh1rd Prree lxeym Pye Ptul Barth Bob Reynolds V1neentR1nell1 Sltrpper Vilebb ohn 'Ieets Iohn R1l1n1 Alan Ieyrne ohn Iaee Stephen Tld rrdge on Dori Drele Anderson lllel jrmmy Cummmgs 'Ihe lxnngsmen met the Rye Country D1y School te 1m on tl1e home held Rye scored e 1rly 111 tl1e grme on an end run el1m1x1ng 1 I0 y1rd sustuned drrye Hoyyeyer the 'lung defense ttghtened 1nd the poyyerful Rye team yy1s held seoreless for the rem11nder ot the g1me 'Ih Kmgs n1en lllTlUSI broke rnto the be 1r1ng 1ee IS Tmdd Narnum broke 1nto the clear only to be pulled down from behlnd deep IH Rye terrxtory The final score was Rye 7 Krng 0 Then the JV s played tvyo games at Brunswlck and C1reenvs1eh In each of these games the Maroon and Whrte yy,ere greatly outsrzed and the speed of each of these two te1ms yyas unstoppable for the d1m1nut1ye Krngsmen and they were defeated 19 O and 71 0 respecnyely journey rng to Neyy Cmaan the Colomal Roaders suffered the1r 4th loss at tl1e hands of 1 hne Neve Canaan squad 70 0 The lxmgsmen pl1yed the1r hnal game agaxnst Harvey on the l1ome grxdrron Thls vy IS defimtely the best game the RIIYOOFI ll'lLl Xlihrte played IS tl1ey fought sayagely to get rnto the yynn column Todd X1rnum yx1s the chref ground guner for lxmg grmdxng out 1 large number of y 1rds Todd g1ye the l1ome ftns hope as he sped across the muddy turf for tyyo sens1t1on1l touehdovyn runs one 90 ll lLl the other 50 H et the HIFX ey team had .1 three touch doyyn 1e1d 1nd thus held the onr1g1ng Krngsmen to secure tl1e yyln 4 if 83 ' I . v - ' - .

The visitors played a possession game in the first half, making the fast breaking Colonial Roaders slow down their offense. This strategy proved successful, as the Kingsmen forced their shots in order to obtain the lead. ln the last quarter, the Roosevelt team froze the ball in the late minutes, and the lead they had built up in the early moments of the game held. The fiinal score stood 58-51 in favor of Roosevelt. Willis and Sebra led the losers with 20 and 12 points, in that order. Returning to the road, the Kingsmen were anxious to get back into the win column against the heavily favored St. Luke's team. The score at the end of the first stanza was 17-15 in favor of the home team. The second quarter saw the Colonial Roaders drop in only 6 points, while their hosts used a fine fast break to rack up 22. In the last quarter the Saints fast breaks, along with a set offense revolving around their 6-8 center Pete Hanson, enabled them to hold their lead against the pressing visitors. As the final whistle sounded the Kingsmen were handed their third defeat in a row, 76-60. Fred Willis kept the Maroon and White in the game at all times, as he scored 57. The Colonial Roaders then traveled to Hamden Hall. Last year the Kingsmen defeated the Hall team for the Southern Connecticut Private School Championship. and the Hallmen were out for revenge. In the first three quarters, the Hall team lead by as much as as l5 points, due to the knowledge of their own court. Again the incinsistency of the Kingsmen in the beginning of the game was their downfall. However, the game was quite exciting in the final moments, as Fred Willis and jack Chesney began to find the range, finally tieing the score 56-56 with three minutes to play, Then the Kingsmen stole the ball three times, but were unable to capitalize on these breaks and were defeated 63-58. Fred Willis led the Kingsmen with 32 points, he was as- sisted by jack Chesney, who pumped in l5. The Maroon and White then returned to their home court to defeat a scrappy but inexperienced Edgewood squad. With the regulars nolling up a 20-4 score in the first quarter, Coach Olson used his second and third team throughout the rest of the game. Every player on the King team managed to get into the scoring column with Fred Willis leading the pack with 50 points. The final score was 66-59 in favor of King. 'Ihe Maroon and White journeyed to the Armory for a contest against Daycroft, whom they previously defeated. ln the first half the Kingsmen displayed a fine shooting percentage as they lead 39-25. Fred Willis and Vincent Rinella were doing most of the scoring in the first half, strengthened by Chesneys rebounding. In the second half, Daycroft's Vaughn had a hot hand as his efforts cut the King lead down to seven points at one time. Nevertheless, the Maroon and White began to click again with their fast breaks, and the lead began to increase again. As the game ended, the Colonial Roaders hit their high point score of the year, as they dumped Daycroft 80-65. Fred Willis hooped in 35 for the winners. Rinella and Chesney followed with 16 and 12, respectively. Playtng without Fred Willis and jack Chesney, who were involved in a serious automobile accident, the Kings- men played Roosevelt. The Maroon and White were un- able to overcome their opponents and lost a close one 55-46. Rinella and Sebra led the King team with I3 and 12 points. The next game was at home against St. Lukes, who were in a tie with Brunswick for the league lead. The Lukemen used their substitutes freely throughout the con- test, as they downed the home team 76-57. However, they had a comparatively difficult time in defeating the scrappy King team. Rinella and Varnum played Hne games for the losers, and they finished with 17 and 15 points, respectively. Han- son led the winners with 20 points. In a return match with Hamden Hall, the smooth working Hall team had little trouble with the Colonial Roaders. It was very close until the last two minutes of the first half, when the Hallmen scored 10 quick points, while holding the Kingsmen scoreless. In the second half, Hamden Hall increased their lead steadily and were vic- torious 67-44. Polinsky dropped in 29 for the Winners, while Rinella and Varnum again led the losers with 13 and 12. Playing host to Brunswick, the Kingsmen were beaten by a 60-32 score. The defending league champions used their regulars very little in securing the win. john Karukas scored 14 points for the Maroon and White. The Colonial Roaders then traveled to Darien Jr. High for their final game of the season against Cherry Lawn. Although the game was not a high scoring contest it was very exciting, as any one of the large crowd will testify. With the score tied and a minute remaining, Vincent Rin- ella sank a jump shot to put the visitors ahead by two. Then a Lawner was fouled while shooting and was awarded two foul shots. The first was successful, but the second wasnt and the Kingsmen grabbed the rebound, freezing the ball to win the game 32-Sl. Clark Varnum poured in IS for the triumphant Kingsmen. Although the season was not as successful as hoped for, the underclassmen gained valuable experience when the accident forced two of the regulars to the sidelines. The members of the squad wish to thank Mr. Olson for the excellent coaching job he performed and hope that he resumes his duties next year. -, i i v-,Q-O fn- in-foo! 5,1 ,ui , , I ,f .P ik 1 ARA si.
