Big Return For Elderly Gridder
Samuel Pete McKnight, aged 35, rushed for 9 yards on three straight carries in Sterling college's varsity football win. The San Jose native, a former department store clerk, entered the game in the second period and gave the crowd a brief, spirited showcase before returning to the sidelines. Coach Carl Bennett confirmed McKnight planned a short, controlled appearance to gauge readiness. Nearby, YMCA Industrial trap shooting crowned Wilson and Go as champions at Otter Creek with a 425 of 500 score, while Collins Radio placed second. Marion coaches will screen game films Tuesday at 7:30 pm in the Marion auditorium for prep guidance.
