Coaches Pingi- tore and Phipps began to mold in early September the 1950 edition of the Red Bank High School Football Team. The score of the first game gave a rather dismal outlook for the rest of the season when the Buccaneers were soundly trounced by a powerful Princeton eleven, 32-21. The remaining contests were all close, well-fought battles, with Red Bank winning three, losing and tying one. After the loss to the Little Tigers, Manasquan’s Big Blue came to town, only to go back disappointed, with a 7-6 defeat, as a result of a Jeffrey’s-to-Cook pass. Manasquan’s Morgan scored in the third quarter, but the conversion failed. The Rumson Bulldogs really showed their teeth and threw a scare into the Pingitore men, but Keatings six-pointer allowed the Bucs to attain a 6-0 victory. A strong Leonardo outfit had a difficult time with the Maroon and White, but the Lions clawed and scratched their way, with the aid of the Trezza brothers, to a 13-0 triumph. The Buccaneers most gallantly fought defensive game went out the window as a strongly favored Asbury Park eleven scored in the fourth period to win 6-0. The second game of the interboro rivalry with Red Bank Catholic proved highly successful for our own gridders. This 13-0 victory, highlighted by the brilliant running of Pete Reeves who went on a 60-yard jaevet, broke a jinx, for Red Bank High School had never won a game on a Monday. A sad day in Red Bank brought the Scarlet Fliers of Neptune scoring over the one-game favored Buccaneers to the tune of 7-0. The best game of the year came on Thanksgiving Day with the underdog Buccaneer eleven playing Long Branch to a 7-7 tie through the brilliant pass-catching of Sonny Thornton and the rifle-arm of Andy Larabee. 1 u only-tight
