1972 Game Action vs Cortland

1972 Game Action vs Cortland
Eagle QB Dennis Rosolowski around left end
Half a century ago we endured triple sessions in the August heat, pounded each other on a daily basis, and battled rugged competition weekly, all in spartan conditions. We bled green and gold.

And we had fun together, too.

Half a century later we have our memories and we have each other. We no longer flash the green and gold like we did in the day. Ours is the color that comes with age, experience, and some wisdom.

We are The Gray Eagles. Our stories are preserved here.

I wanted to say I really enjoyed reading the story about the one beer had by some in Coach D's presence and while still riding a team bus back to Brockport written by Ed Assenheimer with Mike Canale's addendum. I could see Coach walking up and down the bunch of you in the parking lot. That look on his face we've all seen, or have we. Pete Barton's follow up comment about 25 years of service and no match to that anger hits home. Being a big fan of W. C. Fields I would name that story " The Fatal Glass of Beer "

Here's a picture of Coach D driving by in his car. Left-click to enlarge.
