A rare victory by John Carroll over Xavier -- in the 14 games played between the two schools prior to 1953, Xavier had won 12, JCU had won one, and one contest ended in a tie. JCU intercepted a then-school record seven passes and were aided on offense by an 81-yard touchdown pass play from Pete Ghirla to Mike Torrelli.
