L. Klopstock to Quill Bostick, again

Quill Bostick WR
Smelters

L. Klopstock threw 3 touchdowns to Quill Bostick, who has now caught 17 from him. They have played 8 games together this season alone. It is the simplest thing this offence does and the hardest to stop.

Across six seasons: 5,513 yards from scrimmage, thirty-seven touchdowns, ninety-four games. There was a 1,418-yard year in there. This is not it. Two of those shirts belong to somebody else now.

He turned twenty-seven this year. He is from Detroit, Michigan. Ask anybody: he is unfailingly polite and completely unknowable. Nobody planned any of it. He was a basketball player until he was twenty, and it still shows.

Smelters, 4-4, and nine weeks gone. Pierce Vance is new.

He has a rule about not reading anything written about him, which he breaks, and always has.

This feature ran in the paper in week 9 of 1989. The rest of the season is there too.
