Cuyahoga Gold Bowl: 1990


Oct. 27 – Wasmer Field

Final: JCU 10, B-W 9

For the second time in as many years, it was a thrilling finish to the Cuyahoga Gold Bowl game. Trailing 9-7 late in the fourth quarter, John Carroll quarterback Larry Wanke engineered a dazzling length of the field drive. He got the Blue Streaks inside the Baldwin-Wallace ten-yard line with six seconds left in the game. It was all up to Blue Streak freshman placekicker Mario Valente to come through, and he did, nailing a 27-yard field goal to deliver a 10-9 John Carroll victory.
