  • 1994 Mckeesport Tigers Football
    1994 MCKEESPORT TIGERS FOOTBALL The 1994 McKeesport Tigers pitched four shutouts and permitted just 7.8 points per contest. And so it is fitting that the defense is remembered for the goal line stand in the PIAA Quad-A Final against nationally-ranked Downingtown that secured a perfect 15-0 season for Coach George Smith and his club. Brandon Short, who went on to a stellar career at Penn State and with the New York Giants, led the surge that prevented the Whippets’ two 1,000 yard rushers from scoring early in the fourth quarter. With 6:34 remaining, the Tigers’ wishbone triple-option offense churned out a 9-play 67-yard drive chewing 3:50 off of the clock. Glenn Allen’s 31-yard blast set up quarterback Bill Isbir’s 11-yard scamper around the left end that put the Tigers up for good 17-14. A Downingtown fumble on the ensuing kickoff was recovered by Keonte Campbell and sealed the deal on McKeesport’s first undefeated season since 1936, its first WPIAL title since 1938, and its first-ever state crown. That championship season galvanized a community rocked by the collapse of its industrial base as 52 busloads of fans made their way to Altoona to witness the game on a cold and rainy night. ROBERT “TICK” CLOHERTY Robert “Tick” Cloherty sported a black and white striped shirt with pride during 25 basketball and 35 football seasons, officiating seven WPIAL Championships and scores of playoff games. Fair and precise between the white lines, Cloherty served as President of the West Penn Basketball Officials and President of the Eastern Association of Interscholastic Football Officials.

  • THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 1 (1994) Despite the physical and mental requirements, pro players have been able to combine sports and medicine DOCTORS IN THE HUDDLE BY JIM CAMPBELL Originally published in Legends, June 1985 WHEN ONE TAKES INTO account the number of youngsters who play football at some level in the course of a year and the number who reach the professional level eventually, the pro football player is truly one in a million. If you take that further and consider the handful of pro footballers who successfully combined an athletic and medical career, then you really have an elite group. Nonetheless, from the earliest days of the National Football League there have been players who have achieved that lofty height. Joe Alexander, an All-America center at Syracuse and later captain of the New York Football Giants, was one of the first with dual careers. Johnny Mohardt, a quarterback from Notre Dame, was another player/physician pioneer. Eddie Anderson, an end at Notre Dame who later became an outstanding college coach, was still another who combined medicine and pro football in the early 1920s. Although the first three NFL doctors are no longer living, two of them were members of a very exclusive group -- The Chicago Bears Doctors Club. Although the group was not formally chartered, it is more than a coincidence that nearly half of the players up to the 1960s who went on to become doctors played for the Bears. The reason, as both Mohardt and Anderson attested, was the player/coach/owner of theBears -- George S.

    APBA 1960 Football Season Card Set The following players comprise the 1960 season APBA Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble.
