BY ERIC VAw DRIL Pioneer Press

When the Notre Dame football team's offense got the ball back with 5:05 remaining against St. Patrick, the Dons held a 3-point lead and were in need of another touchdown. The lead appeared far from safe for Notre Dame, which went on to win the East Suburban Catholic game 44-34 on Oct. 10 in Chicago. St. Patrick's offense had amassed 34 points and more than 400 yards. The combination of senior quarterback Paddy Devlin (29- for-44, 424 yards, three touch- downs) and junior Andrew Edgar had torched the Dons' secondary throughout the second half, in- cluding a 42-yard reception that set up a 14-yard touchdown on the previous drive. "Oh yeah," Notre Dame coach Mike Hennessey said when asked if he thought the Dons needed to score another touchdown. "We didn't want ito be a game where it's going to be the team [with] the ball last liwinsi" Notre Dame's drive started at its 35 yard-line. Earlier in the season, the situa- don would have been tailor-made for junior Eric Harper. The bruis- ing back is capable of wearing down defensesinthe fourth quarter, and picking up hard- earned yards during a time in the game when each first down and every second run off the clock are vital.
