However, the road for Coach Dan Boisture and his gridders was not without its ruts. Perhaps the greatest setback came with only two games to go when the Huron's star ground gobbler, Larry Ratcliff, fractured his kneecap in the fourth play against Northern Michigan. Ratcliff was at that time the nations' second leading runner with 1188 yards for the first six games of the season, aver- aging 7.2 yards per carry and 194.5 yards per game. Forced to sit out the rest of 'the season, he finished second overall to Ed Marinaro, Cor- nell's murderous fullback in the season stat race. In the previous season "the Rat," as he is known to his teammates, became the first Huron rusher ever to gain over a thousand yards, 1,098 for the season. In his. three seasons, the Akron, Ohio native rushed his way into every all-time Hu- ron record except total plays. To make matters worse, in the same game only a few plays lat- er, Ratcliff replacement Don Madden sustained a shoulder separation to place him on the injured list for the rest of the season. But somehow Boisture man- aged to patch together his-team enough to dump the Northern team for a 31-3 loss behind a record - tying four touchdown performance by Tim Packrall, subbing for the injured stars. Things didn't look quite so bright In their next game, with a tough Northeast Louisiana squad, but the Hurons manag- ed to salvage their undefeated streak with a 10-10 tie, with uexchange NEW YORK ;') - The New York Rangers completed their second big National Hockey League trade in two days yester- day, sending forwards Dave Ba- lon. Wayne Connelly and Ron Stewart to the Vancouver Ca- nucks in exchange for defenseman Gary Doak and forward Jim Wiste. Connelly, a right winger, was obtained Monday in a seven- player transaction with the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis also sent forwards Gene Carr and Jim Lorentz to New York and re- 'son ( another hundred-plus yard aft- ernoon from Packrall. Proving himself to be a run- ner from the same mold as Rat- cliff, Packrall rolled up his third straight hundred-plus per- formance in the final game of the season, gaining 125 yards in 27 carries and pacing the Hu- rons to a 35-2 rout of South Dakota State. Previously, the Hurons had won over Oshkosh State and Wisconsin - Milwaukee while squeezing past the Quantico Marines, Idaho State and West- ern Kentucky. The other tie of the season came against a rough Eastern Kentucky team and ended with no points on the scoreboard for either team. While the third-string heroics of the last third of the season were important, Boisture looks to the Western Kentucky game for the real key play of tpe sea- son. When trailing the Kentucky team 14-10 Ratcliff scampered in for a touchdown with a mere two minutes left on the clock, only to have the play called back. Then two plays later, the Rat drove across the goal line again to tally the winning score. Looking back upon the sea- son, Boisture points to the teams dedication and hard work. "They wanted to go un- defeated. They wanted to go to a bowl and they wanted to be national champs. We just had to get them to play up to their. potential," the mentor confides. "And we had great talent with guys like Ratcliff and tackles Bill Durlac and Bennet Edwards on offense and Safety Darrell Mossburg and linebacker Dave Pureifory. Certainly the Hurons were no dark horse on the grid scene having come off a fine 7-2-1 season in 1970 and was in the running for a bowl offer. In their final four games they out- scored their opponents 129-8. In his pre-season remarks Boisture felt that his squad this season "could be my best of all time". That best included a 1968 squad that was ranked sev- enth nationally in Boisture's second year at the helm with an 8-2 record. Looking just slightly ahead, to the Pioneer Bowl in Wichita Falls, Texas on December 11th, the Hurons will be realizing a long-cherished dream. While their opponents have yet to be named, Boisture stated that he had little preference as to whom the Hurons faced. While reluctant to comment on his teams projected success or failure there, in typical coaching lingo he admitted an optimistic "but we'll show up". The prime candidate for the other bowl berth Louisiana Tech a team with a 7-2 record thus far and one game remaining in regular season play against a strong Louisiana team that tied the Hurons at 10-all. wer tJ J. 1 1.I 1 1r 4.
