Yeah because it wasn't referred 2 regularly as the Stagg Bowl yet in those days! Great memories of Widener as a D3 powerhouse! They were the premier Mid-Atlantic small college program back then!
In the early 90’s the NCAA required that schools who weee in D1 for all other sports had to play football at the D1 level. As a result Dayton and a few other schools formed the Pioneer Football League which is a 1-AA or DCS conference but is non scholarship like D3 is.
It was packed. Beautiful
I was there. The tall kid playing the Dayton fight song on the trumpet. And now, just as then, I fast forward to the halftime show... GO UD BABY!
Thanks for uploading - have never seen replay of the whole game.Pete Stolzer #55
