Led by Middle Guard Pete "Monster" Lennon, Chuck "Ring Ding" Hagen, and Johnny "Long Shot" Powers, the defense nailed legendary Yale quarterback David "B.D." Nix for seven consecutive losses. Southwick, an unheralded junior second-stringer. came off the bench with three minutes to go and hurled three long bombs to Barrett to save a thrilling game and a thrilling season. The game ball was awarded to player-coach Ron Janis, the key linebacker, who played in his last game as a Crimed...
