VARS ITY FOOTBALL Under the capable tutelage of first-year coach Nick Teta, the Crusaders hustled their way to a very impressive 5 and 2 season. Overcoming inexperience and a lack of size, the varsity ran roughshod over the first four opponents before falling to S.H.S. in a hotly contested battle. Perhaps the sweetest victory of the season was a 27-6 romp over cross-town rival E.F.A. at N.D. ' s newly inaugurated stadium. Further testimony of the Crusader ' s gridiron prowess was their convincing 18-7 win over highly touted Southern Counties League Champion Horseheads. The success achieved by the ' 62 football Crusaders was boosted by such standouts as fullback Jim Ramich, quarterback Mike Johnson, and linemen Mike Malone, Jim Meehan, and Bill Knott, but much credit must also be given Coach Teta and his assistants for their fine jobs.

. . . To crystallize those rules of grace and social custom we have learried. To ynaterialize that philosophy of life we have acquired through widened knowledge. To practice, in fact, what we preach. To translate the calculations a7id reckormigs of the mind into the language of practice. It is for these reasons we have athletics. The transformation of action to thought— that is learning. The transformation of thought to action— that is athletics. Sports, physical fitness, or call it what you ivill, it is the other half of the balance. It is the truth, the visual effect of the active mind. 89
