This play produced another touchdown for State bringing the score up to 21 to against Carolina. It was Ron Podwika who took it over from the one yard line and giving State a victory 21 to 14. V.P.I, couldn ' t stop Podwika on this play as he tore in for 13 yards. Final score— State 14, V.P.I. 14. If one did not look at the final score he would think that State had a victorious season. Against many of our ten op- ponents we out ran, out passed, out kicked and in general out played them. We only lost by 40 points in the scoring battle, 160 to 120. We actually won the ground gaining race, compiling 1,746 yards against the opponents 1,634 yards. In kickoff returns we averaged 19.1 yards which was 5 yards over what our opponents averaged. We also led in punting, rushing per carry, and had less penalties and yards loss. What hurt the most was our passing: we completed only 40 per cent of our passes for 692 yards while the foes hit 54 per cent for 1,058 yards. However, we threw seven touch- down passes while being scored on only six times in this manner. Yes — by the statistics North Carolina State should have had a winning season, but the scoreboard was just a little off balance. We had the men, we had the team, but the breaks just weren ' t with us. [23]

Frank Marocco made the key block to set State ' s )im D ' Antonio off for a 12 yard gain against Maryland. State ' s bench strength was called upon more than usual this year and the boys did a good job. Even though we had a losing season we gained over 100 yards more than our opponents on the ground. Bernie Latusick who averaged 30 yards per kickoff return made a diving catch of this pass to give us possession on the 15.

Ken Trowbridge breaks loose for a 20 yard touchdown which was his second against Carolina. After this additional 14 points the State fans were too hoarse to yell but the white handkerchiefs took the place of our voices. Rondy Harrell, the 185 lb. sophomore from Raleigh, breaks away around right end to add up yardage against Maryland. Keep an eye on this boy for the next two years. Claude Cibson is one of our promising sophomores.
