Under The able TuTelage of head coach Mr. Frank McLaughlin, The Crimson and Gray, capTained by John Law, and Teafuring a num- ber of reTurning leTTermen, was eager and able To Take all Toes. AlThough The l-lawlcleTs were ouT- weighed in pracTically every game, Their indomiT- able spiriT overcame This handicap and Their never- say-die aTTiTude, which is a cherished Prep Tradi- Tion, sTood ouT whaTever The odds. As rival coaches will aTTesT, The Preps hard charging baclc and capable and griTTy linemen were no pushover and opposing players Tound, much To Their dismay, ThaT here was a Team who did noT read advance noTices, who refused To give in regardless oT The odds againsT Them, who never sTopped husTling unTil The final gun. DespiTe The squads record oT 3 won and 5 losT, wiTh one Tie, The cry, WaTch The Prep was s+iII audible around The League and The season's end Tound Bob VincenT, John Law, Jim Carmody, Franny Walsh, Paul FreeT and Jim D'AnTonio receiv- ing All-CaTholic menTion.
