Big Brown and Bobby

Dear Mustangs and friends of Mustangs it is with deepest regret that I report to you the death of two great Mustangs footballers. Walter Brown (Big Brown) and Bobby Crossett passed away last week. These two great linemen for the Mustangs played side by side (tackle and guard) on the great team of 1958 (10-1 having beaten Lexington twice with the only loss to a powerful Jackson High team in the Exchange bowl-Huntingdon's third straight participation in that bowl game).
These two were hard nosed players who came off the ball very hard clearing the way for the backs with giant holes. Walter went on to play four years at Murry State in Ky. Both had remained good friends of mine through out the years since I moved back to Huntingdon 34 years ago. They will be missed by family and friends.
