Great article by Bill Fornaciari regarding the Plymouth/Plymouth-Carver Thanksgiving game tradition.

For a generation, the rivalry between Plymouth, including Plymouth-Carver, and Silver Lake was as good as high school sports could get.

For this PCHS alum (Class of ’71), the ’69 game was memorable. PC played a great game, in particular the play where Paul Palavanchi broke through their line to sack the Lakers’ quarterback is still a vivid memory. I believe the good guys won that day, but that play said everything about the spirit of high school sports and in particular the importance of the Thanksgiving game.
