TED DAVENPORT COACHES THE TEAM TO AN EASY WIN

October 14th - Taking over for the busy Ted Guyer, Ted Davenport stepped in and the Independents didn't miss a beat. After two early rushing touchdowns and two kickoff returns the Independents subbed in many of the bench players and practiced new formations and plays. The only bad news of the day was the Louis Kolls injured his knee and may be out for the rest of the season.
