Croydon Kings v London Rockets, 1993 BNGL

Jason Conroy

RB Ryan Holness

Gary Gonsalves
Team Notes: Had perfect regular season record in 1993, before defeating London Rockets
(30-13) and Bath Gladiators (12-6) in the play-offs. Reached the Premier Bowl in their
only season, but after the loss of their coach (Brian Smallworth) and six key players (QB
Rick Horner, RB Ryan Holness, WR Clive Etienne, WR Gavin Hart, linemen Vern Griffiths
& Shawn Mitchell) to Graceland College (Iowa) lost the bowl game to the Tiptree Titans
17-6. The Kings pulled out of Division Two in 1994 citing "a conflict of
interests" with their coach Brian Smallworth.
