his run that was called back by

niecki got So yards on IL tries.
But Richmond had two boys who
matched them, Fullback Frank
Pajaczkowski, one of the finest
players CIV has seen this year,
and Quarterback Tom Theodose.
Theodose was the player who
broke GW's back. With the final
period Of an until-then scoreless
game half gone. he quick-kicked
the Colonials back to their 8.
Following that, on GW's fourth
down with 2 yards to go, the
officials stepped into the act by
not seeing what the customers
saw, somebody offside on the left
side of Richmond's line as Quar-
terback Arnie Tranen of CIV
punted.
The punt was almost blocked
and Tranen got it only to his SO,
the only time in the whole Sec
ond half Richmond wasn't back
in its own territory.
Then Theodose ran two single
wing plays with himself at tail
back looking for pass receivers.
The GWs covered prospective
receivers expertly, but nobody
covered Theodose. First he ran
to the 26 and then he ran to
the II. The next time, from T
formation, he drifted back on
another pass play. Nobody was
open except Theodose. so he ran
for a touchdown.
In the five minutes left, the
Colonials marched to the Rich
mond % and had a pass inter-
cepted in the end zone. Then
they took a punt and worked
back to the IS, from whence q
holding penalty put them on the
with 20 seconds left. Quick
cracks at Richmond's piled-up
line by Bob Sturm and Bill
Weaver netted nothing and the
