PAGE EIGHT THE FIAT LUX, ALFRED, NEW YORK TUESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1962<br />
Saxons Take Third Straight;<br />
Down Favored Larries 22-16<br />
That Friday evening, <strong>Alfred</strong>'s<br />
ballplayers sweated it out in the<br />
sweltering rooms of an Ogdensburg<br />
Hotel, but the next afternoon<br />
it was the Saxons who generiated<br />
most of the heat in winning<br />
ft well-played ball game, 22-16.<br />
At two o'clock on a perfect football<br />
afternoon, Joe Renwick took<br />
the St. Lawrence kickoff and nan it<br />
back to the <strong>Alfred</strong> 26. On the ten<br />
succeeding plays, the Purple and<br />
Gold moved the ball 54 yards down<br />

tackles.<br />
On second down and six yards<br />
to go, Renwick rolled out around<br />
right end and fought his way<br />
down to the St. Lawrence one. On<br />
the next play, he sneaked over for<br />
the touchdown. The two-point conversion<br />
was good on a Renwick<br />
to Baker pass.<br />
As is the Saxon habit, <strong>Alfred</strong><br />
couldn't move the ball at all for<br />
the rest of the half while St.<br />
Lawrence piled up thirteen first<br />
downs in a succession of unsuccessful<br />
attempts to tie up the ball<br />
Same. The Saxon defense appeared<br />
to be incapable of stopping the<br />
Larries' power sweeps around end<br />
and outside tackle, yet Mssrs. Herold,<br />
Orsley, Hilt. Wirtz, Quinn,<br />
Place and Kessler managed to hold<br />
St. Lafrence had out-rushed Alline<br />
until midway through the second<br />
period.<br />
Behind some of %e best blocking<br />
.«een this ye,ar, the Larries moved<br />
*66 yards on eleven plays with Jeff<br />
Johns scoring the TD from five<br />
