Bishop Cutlery WR
Prospectors

146 yards for Bishop Cutlery, against the club that did not want him. We did. He is unfailingly polite and completely unknowable, so nobody expects him to say much about it. The fixture comes round again next year.

He has 10,312 yards from scrimmage in eight seasons, and forty-eight touchdowns. He got to 2,516 once. Not this time. He has done it in two buildings.

He is thirty, out of Salt Fork, Oklahoma. Nobody planned any of it. He was an academic transfer who arrived at Windham to study engineering.

The club is 2-3. Cole Slaw is in year two of it. There is one year left on the deal.

Cutlery has worn the same undershirt since his rookie year and had it repaired twice.

This feature ran in the paper in week 5 of 1992. The rest of the season is there too.
