Good Start

The game started, however, as
if it all belonged to the Cavaliers,
Pete Schmidt kicked off deep to
the 'Deacons' Tom Gavin, who
darted upfield far into the Virginia
ranks. Luckily for the Wahoos
he and the ball parted company,
somewhere along the way.

The fr ball bounced and hopped
into Wahoo real estate to be
recovered by Wake, but the ball
went to Virginia after a penalty
had been called on Wake for clipping
while the ball was free. A
fifteen-yard bonus gave Virginia
possessive rights on the Deacon
44.
