Portal:1974 Spring Men/Memorable Events

(per Coach Byrd) - The turning point for the season was our convincing win over Cranwell, a team we beat with hard hitting football tactics, but this match we beat them with superior quickness, speed and passing.... in other words, at their own game, finesse.

In the finals of the Coors Cup, Al Osur was playing for the Barbos, and had Bobby Arnold not gotten hurt early in the second half, the outcome might have been different. Bobby was team captain and it was certainly entertaining and inspirational to play alongside him.

Dick Webber remembers a great game against Berkeley in a driving rain storm with ankle deep mud. In their scrum, they had lots of off-season lineman from their football team and their backs were a mix of linebackers & very talented Samoans. For him "it was a great education on how to play the game at a high level!"
