Description
ST. BENEDICT 6
The Bees of St. Ambrose College opened their 1956 football
season with a thrilling 14-6 victory over the Ravens of St.
Benedict's. It was a game highlighted by tight defensive play
on the part of both teams. St.
Ambrose used two passes, one
thrown by St. Benedict's, which
Bob Webb intercepted and returned for a 32 yard touchdown
I gallop. With 58 seconds left in
the first half, St. Benedict's recovered a Bee fumble turning
it into their only touchdown, but
failure to make the conversion,
coupled with Clint Westemeyer's
touchdown pass brought victory.

bert runners to 73 yards rushing. The St. Ambrose Bees,
scoring in every period, completely outclassed the Green
Knights. The Bee backfield,
led by Nate Walton, reeled
off an impressive 257 yards
rushing. The game was a
real display of St. Ambrose
