KIN$$ EUR A WEAR St. Peter,s Football Team, under the able direction of Coach John O,Brien and Athletic Director Father Curley, zoomed t0 the heights of victory during its 1948 season to emerge untied and Hundefeated. Bob Karr and Tommy Lloyd, co-captains of this epic making team were supported byi'a backfield starring Syl Smaldone, Ted Landry, David Emigh, Tony Levo, Jiggs Blaglione, Jim Clukies, and Faust DiAndrea. Line men were Larry Mitchell, Phil Waring, Tom D'Iagovern, Dave Russell and over the ball at center Zeke Loggins, Dick OiRourke and John Scavone. The opening game of the season brought an overwhelming score of 40-12 over an old time rival, Fort Ann. The purple and gold thus avenged their last season,s 25-18 defeat against Gordon Streeteris Forts. St. Johnis of Albany furnished the second win of the season as the Purple and Gold gridders wrapped up their second victory with a 36-6 win over their old rivals from Albany. The following week the Saints played host to IVIilne of Albany. The Saints romped over IVIilne of Albany- with a 30-0 victory for their third straight win. In a second encoun- ter with their Albany rivals, the Saints again walloped them; this time to the tune of 32-0. As the climax of the season the Purple and Gold gridders of St. Peteris played a tough and well experienced team, St. hlary's of Hudson. The Saints pulled the game out of the fire in the last few minutes of play, winning by the slim margin of one point, 30-31. Hav- ing counted on an easy victory the Saints found they were mistaken when they discovered themselves trailing 6-0 at the quarter. As if out of a fairy tale, however, Tommy Lloyd ran back the kickoff to tie the score. As the fourth quarter rolled around S. P. A. trailed 30-24. When all seemed lost, the trusty Faust DiAndrea caught a pass and tied the score 30 all. With but a minute to go, the Saints switched to fullback slot their center Zeke Log- gins who took the ball over for the extra point which won the game for the Saints. Thus the season ended on a distinct note of triumph; five wins, n0 ties, no losses.
