Chronicle 1926 Game 1, October La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 1926 Game 1, October 2, 1926: La Salle 19 – Norristown 7 Philadelphia Inquirer Norristown – La Salle Prep’s big Blue and Gold clad gridders proved too much opposition for Norristown High here today, the final score reading 19 to 7. Francis Linus, La Salle’s star half-back, twice crossed Norristown’s goal line in the first half, giving the locals their first setback since the middle of last season. Clarence Brehm, full-back on La Salle, made the other touchdown for the victors in the third quarter, Bausch kicking the extra point. In the last period Norristown tried to stage a come-back and succeeded in scoring a touchdown by Pizzano. Carl Helbling dropped the extra point between the uprights. Blue And Gold Yearbook After weeks of strenuous conditioning, the combination traveled to Norristown. With Captain Gilligan, Brehm, Linus, and Bausch, all well experienced men, in the backfield, and the strongest line seen in the city for a long time, Norristown’s wonder team could do nothing. A fighting few minutes at the beginning of the second half barely eked out a touchdown for them, but against our three it looked small. The game ended with the score 19-7. Game 2, October 9, 1926: Salesianum MD 9 – La Salle 6 Philadelphia Inquirer Salesianum Jolts La Salle Prep, 9-6 Salesianum High yesterday scored a thrilling win over La Salle Prep in a Catholic High League tilt staged at the Phillies Ball Park, 9 to 6. Connell’s field goal was the winning margin. O’Neil and Shelley were the scorers. The Sunday Morning Star Salesianum Defeats La Salle Prep 9 to 6; Joe O’Neil Catches Forward Pass and Makes Touchdown In a most thrilling battle at the Phillies ball park, Salesianum team defeated their Catholic League rival in the second half of their football game yesterday. In the opening half La Salle held the advantage, there hidden ball attack keeping them well in Salesianum’s territory. In the first quarter Shelley, La Salle center, broke through the Sallies line, blocked Connell’s kick, scooped up the ball, and ran thirty yards for a touchdown. Bausch’s kick failed to go over on the point after touchdown. Receiving the kick again, La Salle started one of the offensives that featured the game. Gilligan, the La Salle captain, made a thrilling forty-yard end run in La Salle’s march down the field. However, a La Salle forward pass was grounded behind the Sallies goal, ending the attack. O’Neil Catches Forward Early in the second half Joe O’Neil, the Sallies brilliant tackle, intercepted a forward pass just as it left Bausch’s hand and ran 40 yards for a touchdown. Connell failed on the point after touchdown. 1 La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 1926 Receiving the kick Salesianum started a brilliant aerial attack, Connell passing to Smith, and Herlihy gained forty-five yards in three passes. In all of their passes the Sallies were unsuccessful in but one. Salesianum rushed the ball another ten yards. Seeing that the intense attack was waning, Connell kicked a field goal from the 25-yard mark. The rest of the half was featured by one brilliant attack after another by both teams. But the defense of each stiffened at the critical moment and a counter-attack was started. So hotly was the battle waged that at one time a few-for-all started between the teams, but quick action by the officials ended the tense situation. In a last desperate attempt La Salle opened an aerial attack. They completed many, but Herlihy intercepted three and Connell two. Hahn knocked one down behind the Sallies goal. The game ended with the ball in La Salle’s possession in midfield. Every man of the Sallies team played an excellent game but Connell stood out on both the offensive and defensive. Blue and Gold Yearbook The second game was a League fray. Salesianum being our opponents. “Judge” Shelley, our center, recovered a blocked punt and made the first score. The Sallies scored when O’Neil intercepted a pass and crossed the last white line. Late in the third quarter they again scored, via Connell’s educated toe and the game ended 9-6. This was quite a blow to our high hopes. LA SALLE SALESIANUM Gavaghan L.E. Tosca Sturm L.T. J. Kane Bodo L.G. D. Kane Shelley C. Mackey Wheeler R.G. Fahey Kueny R.T. O’Neil Leaming R.E.

Game 4, October 22, 1926: St. Joseph’s Prep 13 – La Salle 6 Philadelphia Inquirer St. Joe Prep Wins First League Tilt; La Salle Eleven Bows to Old Rivals In Exciting Fray By 13 to 6 Count St. Joe Prep School’s football team staged a brilliant second half rally yesterday afternoon at Shibe Park to win its fifth straight contest of the year, and its first Catholic League victory when it beat La Salle Prep 13 to 6. La Salle scored first in the second quarter, and at half-time the figures read 6 to 0 with St. Joe on the short end. Displaying a varied attack, Murray, St. Joe quarterback, led his team to triumph. It was forward passes and penalties that felled La Salle. A quick pass after consistent gains through the line gave St. Joe its first score, and Captain Bill Morris sent his team ahead when he added the extra point. A twenty-five yard penalty, half the distance to the goal line, for unnecessary roughness placed St. Joe in a scoring position again. Mixing his plays well, Murray soon had the ball on the one yard line and four downs to make a touchdown. Captain Morris finally went over on the third attempt and the game ended after the kick-off. The La Salle boys scored first when Brehm, their plunging full-back, crossed the St. Joe goal-line in the second period. A La Salle offensive drive brought the ball to St. Joe’s seven-yard line. Here the Crimson and Gray held on downs and Morris punted out of danger. Taking the ball again, the La Salle boys opened up a successful aerial and line attack advancing the ball to St. Joe’s four-yard line. From this point, Brehm smashed over for the first tally of the fray. Bausch’s try for the extra point was blocked. The La Salle score brought the preppers back fighting for, in the very next period, they scored and made good the try for the extra tally. Standing on his own thirty-yard line a North Broad street back fumbled. An alert St. Joe line-man recovered and the league leaders were started. A pretty forward heaved by 3 La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 1926 Murray and caught by the speeding Bodo brought six points to St. Joe. Bodo dashed then yards after his catch for the touchdown. Captain Morris added the extra point on a drop-kick. The second St. Joe score came in the final quarter when an intercepted pass and a penalty for roughness placed the ball twelve yards from La Salle’s goal-line. Line plunges by Morris and Bodo carried it to the one-yard mark, from where Morris finally carried it over. That proved to be the final score for La Salle, in an attempt to even the score, was thwarted in her last minute aerial attack. Blue And Gold Yearbook We awaited the St. Joe game with avid interest. La Salle scored in the first half and after a fighting, smashing twenty minutes they went to the dressing rooms with no further score. St. Joe came back after the rest and scored two touchdowns in quick succession. For some unknown reason the spirit seemed to have left the wearers of the Blue and Gold and they were unable to even it up. The final whistle blew with the figures 13-6 on the scoreboard.

  • The Debut of 6-Man Football
    The Debut of 6-Man Football at Coeymans High School [CHS] & Ravena High School [RHS] Seasons 1938 - 1943 Prepared by: Chuck Friday September 2008 Dedication Claude B. Friday Coeymans High School Class of 1927 The Debut of 6-Man Football Prologue The introduction of high school football in this community began in 1934 when the Coeymans High School fielded an 11-man team. One year later, Ravena High School [less than 1 mile away from Coeymans High School] introduced its 11-man football squad. Both high schools continued to play 11-man football until the 1938 season. Beginning in 1938 both Coeymans and Ravena high schools converted to the 6-man football format. Each high school had an independent football squad and the rivalry between the two schools was intense. In 1944 Coeymans and Ravena merged their school districts and fielded a single 6-man football team. Local high school football continued using the 6-man format until the 1958 season, when 8-man football was introduced. In the 1963 season 11-man football was, once again, reinstated. This paper attempts to capture some of the early history of 6-man football from the perspective of those years that Coeymans and Ravena competed against each other (i.e., the 1938-1943 seasons). The first three years of competition between these two schools (1938-1940) was captured by a young sports journalist named Fred (Doc) Martino. Shortly after the 1940 football season Fred left his journalist position and enlisted in the military. The last three seasons (1941-1943) that Coeymans and Ravena fielded separate teams are sparsely covered by the local newspaper.

Seay III - 2 - INTRODUCTION The Wild Bunch celebrates its sixth birthday in 2006. This revised playbook reflects the lessons learned during that period by Wild Bunch coaches on three continents operating at every level from coaching 8-year-olds to semi-professionals. The biggest change so far in the offense has been the addition in 2004 of the Rocket Sweep series (pp. 62-72). A public high school in Chicago and a semi-pro team in New Jersey both reached their championship game using the new Rocket-fueled Wild Bunch. A youth team in Utah won its state championship running the offense practically verbatim from the playbook. A number of coaches have requested video resources on the Wild Bunch, and I am happy to say a DVD project is taking shape which will feature not only game footage but extensive whiteboard analysis of the offense, as well as information on its installation.

  • The Story of Jim and Phillip Krakouer. by Sean Edward Gorman BA
    Moorditj Magic: The Story of Jim and Phillip Krakouer. By Sean Edward Gorman BA (Hons) Murdoch University A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy At Murdoch University March 2004 DECLARATION I declare that this dissertation is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work, which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………. Sean Edward Gorman. ii ABSTRACT This thesis analyses and investigates the issue of racism in the football code of Australian Rules to understand how racism is manifested in Australian daily life. In doing this, it considers biological determinism, Indigenous social obligation and kinship structure, social justice and equity, government policy, the media, local history, everyday life, football culture, history and communities and the emergence of Indigenous players in the modern game. These social issues are explored through the genre of biography and the story of the Noongar footballers, Jim and Phillip Krakouer, who played for Claremont and North Melbourne in the late 1970’s and 1980’s. This thesis, in looking at Jim and Phillip Krakouers careers, engages with other Indigenous footballer’s contributions prior to the AFL introducing Racial and Religious Vilification Laws in 1995. This thesis offers a way of reading cultural texts and difference to understand some Indigenous and non-Indigenous relationships in an Australian context. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have often wondered where I would be if I had not made the change from work to study in 1992. In doing this I have followed a path that has taken me down many roads to many doors and in so doing I have been lucky to meet many wonderful and generous people.
