Loses To Lenoir-Rhyne BOONE—"Xou can’t give Up . the ball six times on your own fl end of the field without expect- ^ mg a team as good as Lenoir Kiiyne to score a lot of points,” Coach Carl Messere after the Bears had defeated ASy by a 56 6 score last Saturday night. "We know Lenoir Rhyne has a suong team, out we oenairtiy didn't expect to let them score 56 points against us,” Messere auaeu. "i Would say that this Le noir Rhyne team compares fav orably with their national cham-r pionsnip team Of a lew yea is ago.” The Bears alertly recovered' four fummes and intercepted two ASU passes to set the stage’ for six of their eight toucn-' downs. The fumoies were made at Appalachian’s 49, 44, z9, and' in the end zone. Pass intercep-j tions gave LRC ball possessions: at the Mounties’ 11 and 49. Appalachian, oddly, ran oil 86; offensive plays against only 57’ by the Bears. At halftime, with Leneoir Rhyne holding a 49-6 ad vantage, the Apps had run 50 plays compared to only H8 for the Bears. The margin of defeat was tfie largest for Appalachian since 1945 when Catawba won by 55-0. £ And the 56 points scored by LR" tied the ali-ijme point record against Appalachian. The Univer sity of North Carolina won by an identical score back in 1940. , The 395 rushing yards posted by the Bears also set a record being the most evet allowed by an Appalachian team in a single game. The Apps also established a school record by attempting 36 passes, and quarterback Pat Mur phy set an individual passing at tempt mark with 33 tosses. The most points previously scored by LR against Appala chian was 38 in 1957. It was the Bears’ 16th victory against 12 losses and three ties in the lohg series. It Starts Monday!
