Tevin Okonkwo done for the year

Tevin Okonkwo RB
Marauders

Tevin Okonkwo is out the rest of the season. The Marauders did not provide further detail. The backup inherits the job for now.

He has 12,454 yards from scrimmage in eight seasons, and eighty-one touchdowns. His best was 2,161. This is not that, yet. Two of those shirts belong to somebody else now.

He turned twenty-eight this year. He is from Ashfork, Arizona. Around the building he says almost nothing and is listened to anyway. Nobody planned any of it. He was a basketball player until he was twenty, and it still shows.

The club is 5-9-1. Halfway Eastwick is new. There is one year left on the deal.

Okonkwo answers every question in exactly one sentence.

This feature ran in the paper in week 16 of 1984. The rest of the season is there too.
