Montana Tech demolishes scoring record in 93-19 rout

I wonder if I could score 93 points with ten of my friends playing touch football against fourth graders in 60 minutes, using only passes. You know we'd miss all the extra points, except by accident, so we'd need 16 TD's to be sure. That's one TD every 3.5 minutes. My guess is that we probably couldn't do it. The little kids would eat up too much of the clock.

That reminds me. My school chum Bob Cupello once scored 7 goals in a single college soccer game. That is freakin' unreal. I'm pretty sure that I could not score 7 times on the field by myself for 90 minutes, assuming that I'd have to start from my own goalpost after each score. (That's assuming that I actually score, which is no certainty. Oh, I guess I'd have to eventually.)

Cupello and his younger brother, who was about as good, played on my high school soccer team. They learned the game in Italy. Our soccer coach didn't really know anything about soccer, and neither did any of our other players. (After all, who did? It was the USA in the 60s.) But some of my pals on the team told me that the coach had one wise instruction to the troops: "Gentlemen, under no circumstances are you to place your body between the Cupellos and the goal."
