Who was the Mountaineer QB who was also well known for participating in boxing?

I don’t know. But I did watch running back Emmett Hamilton put a beating on some poor soul from Lees-McRae in the TKE boxing tournament in BKG back in the 70s. Now that was a great event. Wayne Clawson - the referee in the ring.

Who was the QB?

Philip Anthony Coccioletti

My buddy , Steve Brown of course.

Walter Lee Thomas knocked him out in the TKE boxing tournament at PB Scott’s . Brown came in with a bandana dancing around and Walter Lee sent him to the canvas. Pretty sure it was in Round Two.

It was the Championship bout and both had knocked out opponents heading into the match. Everyone thought Brown was going to win until the thunderous right hand connected.

But better known for his acting career.

I didn't realize that it was the same one until I looked up the spelling of Phil's last name.

David Caldwell, our shootout and discus thrower, was a little wild in the ring but he would knock opponents out of the ring during that tournament. Then we’d throw them back in. Great times.
