HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -The Underdonk family of Huntington had quite the week.
Bill Underdonk was a former WVU All American football player who played in the 1954 Sugar Bowl for the Mountaineers. Each of the players received a bowl watch. But when the Underdonks lived in Buffalo, NY in the 1960′s, their home was burglarized and that watch and other keepsakes were stolen.
More than 50 years later, that watch is back where it belongs.
Here’s their story.
