Jack Carrier and Randy Humphrey take a tumble in a struggle with a G. W. carrier. Gridiron action at its best The 1968 Homecoming game marked the end of Nitro Wild- cat’s bad luck on the playing field. With a score majority of 7 to 0, our rough-and-ready team achieved a glorious victory over the George Washington Patriot’s in this game. A big crowd cheered them on from the bleachers, un- der the cheerleaders’ leadership. The heroic touchdown was exe- cuted by sophomore Clifford Reynolds. Tiny Arthur kicked the extra point. Great suspense was generated when the spotlights faded and went out three-fourths of the way through the game. The Wild- cats had carried the ball through Patriot defenses with only two yards to go on the 35 yard line, and three minutes left in the 3rd quarter. Terry Jividen and Jack Carrier fly down upon another George Washington player to stop a play in its beginning.
