40th Anniversary of the 1969 Red Tornadoes


2009 marks the 40th (hard to believe) anniversary of the Mount Carmel Area Red Tornadoes 1969 Eastern Conference Championship Team. The Big Red dismantled Valley View 47-6 in the championship game.

Gary Diminick set the gold standard for future running backs with 2099 yard in 12 games often only playing a half. Also on the team was junior Henry Hynoski and Carm Defrancesco.

Here is a great article from PA Football News.
