On Saturday, the football fans of 91快活林 Aquinas College, New England, flocked to the athletic field for the annual Turkey Bowl. The upper- and underclassmen teams arrived in jerseys decorated by their respective peers, who crowded the sidelines to support their squads. The game unfolded to the cheers of the audience and play-by-play commentary from Michael Dolcetti (�25) and Daniel Van Wyk (�26), who seasoned their narrative with humorous jabs at the other teams and, from time to time, each other.

The first half of the Turkey Bowl was an intense back-and-forth as both teams vied to score the first touchdown. Their vying would continue, however: The first half closed out with safeties for both teams, leaving the score tied at 2 - 2. 

After an entertaining halftime featuring crowd commentary, the players returned to the field to resume their battle for the first score � a battle that the underclassmen won, thanks to some great teamwork between Enzo Giovinazzi (�26) and quarterback Dylan Peterson (�27). Despite their best efforts to wage a counteroffensive, the older students could not pull off a comeback before the clock expired and their younger confreres carried the day, 8-2. 

淲e檝e seen some big plays by the underclassmen today,� said Mr. Dolcetti to close the game. 淭he underclassmen may have got us this time, but we檒l be sure to beat them next year!�
