1954 Despite scintillating performances by Vito Pon

tarelli and QB Jackie Jordan, Saint Raphael Academy dropped its fifth straight Class A tilt of the season as 126-pound speed merchant Joe McGinn scored four touchdowns to pace Mount Pleasant to a 28-20 hard-fought win before 500 spectators at McCoy Stadium. Pontarelli rushed for 101 yards in 12 tries racking up touchdowns on a 59-yard dash and a 12-yard toss from Jordan. Jordan carried the pigskin 17 times for 143 yards and tallied on a spectacular 78yard jaunt keyed by a vicious block by Pontarelli at midfield that took out two of the final three Kiltie defenders.

1964 Once again it was a tremendous effort by coach

Gig Pariseau’s defensive unit as Tolman continued its relentless quest for the Class A Metropolitan Division crown by blanking defending Class A champion Mount Pleasant 12-0 at McCoy Stadium. Sophomore halfback Carl Hargeaves got the Tigers off and winging with a 64-yard punt return for a touchdown in the first period, while QB Larry Caswell and halfback Bob Moniz hooked up for their sixth TD pass of the campaign on an 18-yard second quarter scoring strike. Swift Alan Theofilis picked up 72 yards in 11 carries to pace Tolman’s ground attack.

1974 John Ribeiro’s three goals lifted Pawtucket West to

a 5-0 romp over Tolman in a Suburban East Division soccer game with the Rangers improving to 9-4-2 and the Tigers falling to a 0-15-0 mark. Jose Rocha and Luciano Xavier tallied the other goals for the Westerners. In other division action, Joe Bento’s unassisted game-winner with one minute to play gave Davies Vocational a 4-3 edge over Woonsocket. Fred Pereira tallied two goals and an assist for Davies, while Russ Dubois’ goal at 19:45 tied the game for the Villa Novans.
