gXCEls ' at 'o 4 0 zmllofo f The Football Review Coach Ray Vaudreuil, the young energetic mentor from Worcester, had many sophomores and juniors playing on the varsity this year in order to produce a strong combination for next year's football campaign. Joseph Donahue, of Flushing, Long Island, captained this year's representation on the gridiron and although it was the poorest team in the history of the Academy, Joe's aggressive fighting spirit and dependable playing was the feature of every game. The following boys on the football team will graduate in June: Capt. Donahue, l-lartwell, Cayer, Martelly, Perreault, Bilodeau, Everett, Cogavin, McDonald, Beauch- emin, and Heffernan. RESUME OE Tl-lE l94O FOOTBALL CAMPAIGN M. S. C. O Westerly l3 Bewildered by a strong aerial attack, the Mount lost their opening game at Barry Field. Living up to all expectations, Capt. Joe Donahue performed brilliantly at right guard. John Mousseau and Marty Cogavin played well also. M. S. C. O Lockwood 6 ln a very evenly matched battle, the visitors came out on top by virtue of a 2l yard touchdown run in the third period. Bob Dusablon's passes to McPherson and Ouellette were a great help to the Mount. Q M. S. C. O ' Aldrich 20 Displaying power, speed, and an excellent aerial attack, Aldrich was more than a match for the l-lilltoppers. Dick Hartwell and Roland Martelly stopped many rushes by their numerous tackles. M. S. C. O West Warwick 33 Dick Everett's quarterbacking and Bob Dusablon's long punts kept the cham- pionship West Warwick eleven from scoring more points than they did. M. S. C. O Classical 27 Aided by a horde of lightning-fast backs, the Providence eleven was the fifth straight victor of the Mounties in the Class B league. M. S. C. O St. Raphael 27 Much after the manner of the preceding games, our boys went down to defeat again. The second-stringers played practically the entire game and they performed very capably. M. S. C. 7 Central Falls 20 Bob Ouellette, promising sophomore halfback, had the unique distinction of scoring 'the team's only touchdown in the football campaign. The score came late in the fourth quarter after the opponents had tallied on two blocked kicks and an intercepted pass. M. S. C. O Woonsocket l4 Touchdowns which resulted after a 73 yard drive and the recovery of a free ball in the end zone spelled the doom to our team in the Thanksgiving Day classic. Bob Dusablon and Capt. Donahue did meritorious work every minute of the game. 1940
