Note: This was a banner year for the Red & White, and almost an undefeated season. The true star was none other than Dan Hostetter whose running and defensive exploits sparked huge margins of victory for the Red Raiders. Captain and defensive powerhouse Dan McEvoy suffered a broken leg in the midst of battle versus Falmouth on Turkey Day... Miss Diane Ballard was named 1961 Football Queen... Dan Hostetter also finished the season with 112 points, leading Eastern Massachusetts in scoring.... he also led the Tri-County Conference in scoring that season... and scored each of the Red Raiders' three touchdowns on Thanksgiving Day versus Falmouth.
