Wasn't hosts last title the one surrounded by controversy against one of his own student-athletes? My memory ain't what it used to be, but Joe's last Midlands title he was VERY close to losing against a kid from somewhere out east. Want to say Penn or Rider, was maybe the semis? He was in real deep on a shot late (or even in OT) that may have been called two if it was against anyone not named Joe Williams. Joe ended up getting the winning TD shortly after, maybe even a counter to this TD attempt. So yeah that's REAL fuzzy despite being there but 1) it was definitely controversial and 2) it wasn't against one of his own guys. Go Huskies! 1 Tofurky reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
