their third win against one tie. In
19, Milligan gained seven to the
II, then lost six to the 18, Devolld
picked up five and Ferguson was
tossed for yard loss giving the
Muskies possession on their own
IA.
An exchange of punts ended
the period with New Concord
holding the ball on their 28-yard
line.
Second Quarter
The MuskieS ran only two
plays before Tommy Lewis re-
covered a tumble and Caldwell
took over on the visitors "a.
A pass from Devolld to Priest
was incomplete, then using the
spread play Devolld went 19
yards for a first down on the
Is. The same play gained IA and
another first down on the one,
from where Devolld went over
to score on sneak behind cen
ter Don Miller. Ferguson skirted
left end for the point sending
Caldwell ahead 7-6.
Johnson took the ensuing
kickoff on his own Is, was hit
hard at the 80, and when he
dropped the ball Cletus Crock
recovered giving the Redskins a
chance to increase their lead.
Attempting to pass, Devolld
was nailed twice for losses back
to the 43, and after an incom-
plete pass to Priest, he punted
out of bounds on New Concord s
eight.
An exchange of punts was
followed by Miller's interception
of quarterback Ken Brooks pass,
giving Caldwell one more chance
just before halftime. Passes to
Milligan and Cunningham netted
% yards and moved the ball to
the New Concord 25, but here
the passing failed and the half
ended with Caldwell on top 7-6.
Third Quarter
The Redskins threatened once
in the third period with Devolld
using the option play to account
for most of the gaining. After
advancing from the Caldwell At
to New Concord's Is on four
plays, he took to the air unsuc-
cessfully and the Muskies took
over on their own 18.
JPust before the third quarter
ended, the Muskies put on their
| only good drive of the game, a
75-yard march to clinch the
victory. Starting on their 25-
yard line, they went all the way
in seven plays, highlighted by
| Brooks pass to Johnson that
covered 81 yards before he was
| downed by Crock on the Cald-
| we'll q.
After Moon and fullback Bob
Mintier reeled off heavy yardage,
Johnson plunged over his own
| left guard from the two to put
| New Concord ahead 1877. Moons
attempted placement was block
ed by host of Caldwell players.
Fourth Quarter
Undismayed, the Redskins
surged back to threaten twice in
the seemingly-short fourth quar-
| ter.
Devolld returned the kickoff
ii yards to the Caldwell 38, De-
volld went for eight yards and
Priest four and a first down on
the so. Devolld racked up another
first down on a 12-yard run to
| New Concord's 38, Ferguson took
a 16-yard pass to the %, but here
the drive ended.
A pass to Milligan was batted
down, Devolld attempting to
pass was spilled twice for losses
of five yards each time, then a
fourth-down pass to Cunning
ham was broken up in the end
zone giving New Concord the
ball on their own 80.
Failing to gain more than three
yards on three plays, the Mus
kies punted out on their own Al
| and Caldwell took over again
for another try.
Using power plays only, Mil
ligan went for eight, Priest made
it a first down on the SO, Devolld
| added four, Milligan two, Priest
one, and Ferguson seven for a
first down on the % with four
minutes remaining.
Priest went for two, Milligan
was stopped for no gain, Devolld
| registered three, and Milligan
drove for badly-needed yardage
on fourth down. When the pile
was unscrambled and the ball
| placed down, the chain was
| brought in and Caldwell was
less than a foot from a first
down on the 13.
New Concord took over and
ran only four plays before time
