TRIANGLES USE ARIAL ATTACK TO UPSET INDEPENDENTS With 6 players were coming off recent injuries, Novak, Lyle, Ursella, Marshall, Wyman, and Jordan the Independents were but a shell of themselves. In the first quarter Rube Ursella made a rare mistake when he fumbled a punt on his own 40-yard line. The Triangles capitalized and took the ball in for the score to make it 7-0. The Independents regrouped and held the ball for almost the entire second quarter but the whistle for the half blew as they lined up at the Triangle 4 inch line.

In the fouth quarter the Triangles took to the air and marched all over the injury plagued Independents. Novak the secondary man and Wyman had to leave this game due to injury. The Triangles threw 2 touchdown passes in the final 10 minutes to seal the game. When the stats were counted the Triangles had thrown for 157 yards to the Independents 22. The Independents won the first down battle 11-8 but it didn’t matter. Source - Rock Island Argus November, 15 1920 |
