Best Answer

Eugene "Stoney" Willis, quarterback for Western Maryland College against Boston College to tie the game that was featured in a large photograph appearing in The Boston Herald on November 12, 1932. As noted by team captain, Hal Kopp (Class of 1933) this article proved that the WMC quarterback "was the first to use the famed 'Shovel Pass' in its present form." The Boston Herald article noted , "Just as Flavio Tosi appeared to have Willis in his grasp, tall Gene popped the shovel pass to Dunn and Jimmy was off again."
