POWER, STAMINA, AND EXPERIENCE played a leading role in turning out victories for Saint Vincent football team this season. The Saints had a veteran combine with more than their share of dash and spirit. Foreseeing a good season for the team, their followers expected and were gratified by many victories packed with thrills. The Fighting Irish compiled one of the best records in the schoo1's history, de- spite the fact that they played more games than usual. Every man produced and as a conse- quence the team succumbed to defeat just three times in a heavy ten game schedule. Since they were decisively beaten by only one team, Erie Cathedral Prep, it is plain to see just how potent the Irish were. The second loss, by a slim 14 to 7 margin, was to Barberton, a team that was always in the top ten in the state. Their last defeat was absorbed in mud and snow at the -25.- hands of Buchtel. This game was lost in the final seconds and could have gone either way. The victims of the Irish were Kenmore, East, Springfield, Canton Catholic, West, St. Mary's, and Cuyahoga Falls. The taste of victory was especially sweet against West High and our friendly rivals, St. Mary's. The Irish had won five straight last year before the underdog cow- boys stampeded the Irish into their first defeat. Against St. Mary's Martin Testa added insult to the defeat by kicking a field goal. Aiding the eleven seniors in compiling this enviable record were juniors Ronnie D'Alessio, Chuck Pfeil, Bob Brizes, Joe Elio, Larry Foore, Bill Starinki, Jerry Meyers, and Adeb Haddad. Sophomores were valuable substitutes. The parochial cham- pionship, and the best won-lose record in the city are testimony to the fact that the Irish were a credit to their coaches, faculty, and followers.
