Coach Rip Engle enthused after.to Pae who just managed to get
the game.
“Holy Cross was a spirited
team that was upset-minded, and
our boys really - had to battle,"
Ensle said.
Quarterback Coach Joe Pater
no agreed. "They have a real
young, rugged football team,"
Paterno said, "but they were
their own worst enemies and
made a lot of mistakes."
Holy Cross’ weakest point was
its pass defense and the Lions
capitalized on it 'rom the beein

damage.
The Lions launched their first
touchdown drive midway in the

An 11-yard pass from Hoak
to Dave Truitt and a 33-yarder
from Hoak to Dave Robinson
consumed most of the yardage.
Robinson was brought down on
the seven-yard line by At Snyder
and four plays later A 1 Gursky
scored from the one to make it
6-0. Henry Oppermann’s extra
point try failed.
Usually a guard, Robinson was 171. Both teams were even in first

drive came after State's fourth
score.
With McCarthy directing ihe

blocks from Hennessey and
Kevin Malone and scored to
make it 26-6. McCarthy added
the two extra points on a roll
