October 22, 1960 — Joe Novak’s third-quarter touchdown run proves to be the difference as Marian slips past Summit Hill by a 7-0 score. After both teams fail to dent the scoreboard in the first half, the Colts recover a fumble to end a Hillers scoring threat. A couple plays later, Novak races through the line and breaks three tackles on his way to a 60-yard TD run. Joe Rudolph crosses the goal line on the extra point try. Summit Hill attempts to tie the score with a late fourth-quarter march that takes them to Marian’s 30, but the Colts — coached by “Wink” Gallagher — register a pair of sacks of Joey Stalosky to seal the victory.
