Nobody drafted this afternoon

Dez Cruikshank, team beat

Carter Mancini QB
Ironmen

Carter Mancini was a track man who was talked into it by a coach who never let go, and this club found him. 216 yards. Remember who was looking. He carries a chess set on the road and beats everyone, which his teammates have stopped remarking on. It counts the same as anybody else's.

The ledger, after seven seasons: 13,093 yards, 219 scores. This is the best of them.

Miami, Florida is where he is from. He is twenty-nine. Ask anybody: he is the first man in the building most mornings.

The club is 9-5. Dale Porkchop is new.

This feature ran in the paper in week 15 of 1989. The rest of the season is there too.
