Bobcats End Football Season With Narrow Xavier Win
Ohio University Bobcats clinched their season with a win over Xavier in a close finish. Coach Don Peden’s team aired the ball 17 times, completing six for 76 yards, while key plays by King Brady and Calico helped score two fourth quarter touchdowns. The defense featured punt blocks by Galico and Bill Dietrich, and Xavier’s line stifled ground games throughout. The season showed youth and potential for next year with returning players and a similar lineup. The final Quarterback Club gathering was moved to Wednesday.
