Quarterback

Crimson QB Tom Yohe is sizzling. In just five games, the junior signal caller has passed for 1200 yards, completed 53 percent of his passes, and connected for 12 TDs.

His current four-game streak of throwing for 200 yards or more is the best by any Harvard quarterback ever. Yohe needs just 375 yards and four TDs more to shatter the all-time single-season Crimson records in these categories. No doubt, Yohe is the key to the entire Harvard offense.

Running Backs

Harvard running back Tony Hinz grabbed the spotlight last week with his electrifying 73-yard run and his 152-yard rushing day. But Hinz's backmate Dave Bunning also scored twice last week and has averaged five yards per carry. Hinz's 5.6 average leads all Harvard rushers, who have accumulated 711 total yards in five games. The running game came back to life against Dartmouth, giving Harvard a strong offensive weapon to complement Yohe's aerial attack.

Offensive Line

Harvard's offensive line has done a fine job in protecting Yohe. Led by left tackle Maurice Frilot (6-ft., 260-lbs.), the Crimson line is one of the biggest reasons why Harvard has been so successful on the offensive side of the ball.

Wide Receivers

The receiving corps for Harvard has cashed in on Yohe's success. Led by leading receiver Brian Barringer (24 catches, 287 yards), the Crimson has one of the best all-around receiving corps in the Ivies. Tight ends Kent Lucas and Dan Gajewski (a combined 16 receptions for 313 yards) have been wide open almost all season. Bunning and Bob Glatz have also been successful coming out of the backfield.

Defensive Line

Harvard's front five has allowed only 393 yards on the ground. Against Dartmouth, it constantly pressured Green QB Chris Rorke. Captain Kevin Dulsky and junior Jim Bell anchor one of the most fearsome front lines in the league.

Linebackers

The linebacking duo of Richard Mau (36 tackles) and Kris Thabit (28) has been as impressive as Harvard Coach Joe Restic could have hoped. Harvard's leading tacklers, both Mau and Thabit have been consistent throughout the season and especially good last week against Dartmouth.

Secondary

Despite its inconsistent play against Cornell, the Crimson secondary responded well against Dartmouth. First, it virtually erased All-Ivy receiver Craig Morton out of Dartmouth's game-plan with a stingy double coverage. Second, Frank Caprio picked up two key interceptions that led to Harvard scores.

Kicking Game

Crimson kicker Bruce Jacob has accumulated 32 points by hitting all of his 20 extra point attempts and nailing four of eight field goals. Punter Alan Hall (34.9 punting average) seems to be growing more confident with each game. Princeton

Quarterback

The Tigers have just as good a passer in Jason Garrett, the Divsion 1-AA's second-leading passer. Garrett's unbelievable 71.2 completion percentage, along with his 1097 yards passing and six TDs, prove he can compete with the rest of the Ivy's talented passers. In last week's victory over Lehigh, Garrett completed 25 of 31 passes for 309 yards, including nine of 10 down the stretch to set up the game-winning field goal.

Running Backs

The Tigers like to run. In five games, Princeton has run for 1005 total yards. Judd Garrett, the Ivy's leading rusher with 362 yards, has averaged 5.6 yards per carry and has scored six times. Backmates Jerry Santillo and Kris Keys have both run well also. The highlight of Princeton's running game thus far was Keys' 88-yard scamper against Davidson.

Offensive Line

The Tiger line has been just as good if not better than Harvard's in creating holes for Tiger backs. Princeton's offensive line, however, has also allowed 19 sacks.

Wide Receivers

Judd Garrett leads all Tiger receivers with 23 catches while brother John is close behind with 19. Split end Jeff Baker is tops on the team with an 18.7 yards-per-catch average. Like Harvard, Princeton likes to pass to everyone on the field. Last week against Lehigh, Judd caught eight passes down the stretch as the Tigers rallied to win by a point.

Defensive Line

Princeton sports the second-best defense in the Ivies and a big reason has been the play of defensive end David Rose (six sacks). This unit can stop the run also. Opposing backs have averaged only 2.6 yards per carry against them.

Linebackers

Sophomore linebacker Franco Pagnanelli (40 tackles) directs a tough Princeton group of linebackers. Matt Whalen is third on the squad with 34 tackles. Mike Demilio fills out the third linebacking position.

Secondary

All-Ivy free safety Dean Cain (six interceptions, 45 tackles) guides a Tiger secondary that has allowed only 662 yards through the air. The Tigers have already picked the ball off 11 times. Yohe will be facing one of the toughest secondaries on Harvard's schedule.

Kicking Game

It has been a perfect year for Tiger placekicker Rob Goodwin. He has converted 17 extra points and six field goals for a total of 35 points. Punter Scott Sellers, however, has managed an average of only 31.3 yards per punt.
