All-Time Record Hanging by a Thread

First-time HB1 Keith Hathawy Threatening TD Record
By "Gary Gray"

Regular Season 2141 (Washington, DC) - Keith Hathawy has 17 rushing touchdowns in 10 games.

Hathawy has been a fullback for his entire career. When Casey Hollis was traded to Carolina, Keith and Vince entered training camp competing for the starting halfback position. The veteran bested the rising star, and the rest is about to be history.

If he scores 6 more TD's over the next 4 games, Hathawy will have set a new mark in the USAFL's history for most rushing touchdowns in a season. His name will stand along side the following legends:
