Freshmen Overcome Elis

Wingback Mike Madden caught a 46-yard pass from quarterback Bill Koehler to spark a fourth-quarter touchdown drive that brought the Harvard freshman football team a 14-7 come-from-behind victory yesterday over Yale in New Haven.

The pass-play, on third and 12 from the Harvard one-yard line was not originally intended to go to Madden, the son of former NFI Coach John Madden.

"I was supposed to clear a guy out, take a guy with me deep," Madden said, explaining that the pass was intended for a split end running a curl pattern. "All of them sucked up on that one guy. In that situation you just hope for the best."

George Sorbara capped the go-ahead drive with a three-yard touchdown run with 3:31 remaining in the game.

JV Squad Topples Bulldogs

Harvard's JV team had an easier time of it, scoring a 21-6 victory over the Elis on an adjacent field yesterday in New Haven.

After spotting Yale, six points, Harvard took the lead midway through the second quarter after a 15-yard Eric Fee bootleg moved the ball to the Yale one and Jim Lowe took it over from there.

In the third quarter. Chris Ridout broke away for a 55-yard touchdown run over the middle. Quarterback Tony DiCesare added the last Harvard touchdown on the quarterback sneak.
