ROST Thur» Jon 3 ), W O (Sec. 3 ______________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________ Avenge 1979 loss Sandy grapplers club Estacada It had been a few weeks since the Sandy High wrestling team had won a dual meet. There have been a few close calls—such as a six- point loss to Oregon C ity, the state’s second-ranked Class AAA team. So when the Pioneers took to the mats Thursday against riv a l Estacada, it was a hungry Sandy team. And the Pioneers attacked the visiting Rangers like a pack of wounded cats. When the smoke had settled, Sandy had demolished a pretty good Estacada squad 41-15. The victory was doubly sweet because the Rangers had come into the Sandy gym last year and pinned a come-from-behind 30-24 defeat on the Pioneers. That match was decided in the heavyweight battle, where the Sandy w restler lost by a pin afte r gaining an early 10-pomt advantage. Mike Rohweder wasn’t even in high school during that meet last year, but the Sandy freshman got the Pioneers off to a rousing sta rt Thursday. Rohweder pinned Jeff Goodrich in the 98-pound match and Sandy was up 6-0 rig h t off the bat. That score was doubled at 106 when Estacada was forced to fo r fe it because its w re s tle r couldn’t make weight. T railing 12-0, the Rangers got on the board when their 115-pounder, Bob Ashbaugh. pinned Dave Kenmson. But that was the only thing Ranger fans had to cheer about for a while. The Pioneers ra ttle d o ff four straight wins, two of them superior decisions. Ironically, both were by the same score. Senior Ray Nelson, 123, used his m at savvy to post a 17- 4 win over Estacada’s Kevin Spitzer. Junior Mike Russell followed that up for Sandy w ith an identical 17-4 win over Ron McReynolds in the 130-pound clash. The two decisions, worth five points each, boosted Sandy’s lead to 22-6. Chris Jones, who may be the toughest sophomore to beat in the league, was in control the w hole w ay and decisioned Estacada’s Doug Hunter £-2 at 136. S a n d y's 141-pounder, Dan M artin, kept the string going w ith an 8-2 decision over Jeff Gracey, giving the Pioneers a rather comfortable 28-6 lead. Estacada s Tim Guthridege stemmed the Pioneer tide a bit at 148 w ith a 6-5 nail-biter over Frank Kim . But Sandy came rig h t back in the next two matches and clinched the win. Before the m atch, Sandy coach Ron Calhoun had said that two of the key matchups would be at 157 and 168, where “their better wrestlers would go against o ir better wrestlers ” Photo by Mark Floyd Putting a headlock on T im Stultz, Sandy’s Tim Freeman retains control of the Estacada wrestler during his 12-2 decision last Thursday. Freeman The Pioneers got the better of those contests. T im Freeman of Sandy was the aggressor in the 157- pound match and bulldogged Estacada’s Tim Stultz for the , entire three rounds. Never letting up, Freeman dumped Stultz by a 12-2 score and picked up four points. Sandy needed only a decision at 168 to clinch the match and they got it from senior Mike M artin. M artin was in control most of the match against Todd Stiles u n til the Estacada wTestler reversed him and picked up a quick near-fall. But M artin regained his com posure, scored a reversal himself, and went on to win 14-10. The victory gave the Pioneers an- msurmountable 35-9 lead. and the Pioneer wrestlers dumped Estacada 41*15, avenging a dual meet loss last season. The Pioneers gave ju n io r va rsity w restler Randy Carmony a shot at the big tim e in the 178-pound match and he nearly came through w ith an upset win. Carmony repeatedly came from behind against Gordon Moore, using a cradle almost e x c lu s iv e ly . U n fo r t u n a te ly , Carmony twice rolled over too far w ith the cradle and was caught for several points in near falls. Though Moore came away w ith a 17-13 decision. Calhoun was pleased that Sandy may have a real threat at 178. “ Carmony may have lost, but he’s a real com er.’ ’ Calhoun said. “ He’s real strong, but a little im m obile yet. As soon as he gets some motion, he’s going to be tough. He could score some points at d is tric t.” The 191-pound spot has been another weak one for the Pioneers, but Mike England turned in a fa irly strong performance despite losing 3-1 to Don McBride England and McBride were tied 1-1 going into the last 10 seconds, but the Sandy w restler ran out of steam and McBride scored a takedown w ith five seconds le ft to pick up the win. Tim Sytsma put the icing on the cake for Sandy at heavyweight. Sytsma turned Estacada’s Dale Fraley on his back and after several close calls, pinned the Ranger w restler. The pin gave the Pioneers a 41-15 w in and momentum going into the second half of the season. B IL L T A Y L O R A ASSOCIATES Swimmers sweep Oregon City A m etric pool and some 1:13.26.

Homer hitters. Just as the Ruth-Gehrig or DiMaggio Yankees used to plug along on a 1-run game until the 6th or 7th inning when it would seem to ra in home runs and the scoreboard would show a big “ 10“ on it, the T e rry Bradshaw Steelers can suddenly hang up touch downs. One touchdown “ d riv e ” took 25 seconds (a decoy line plunge and a 73-yard scoring pass). Another tim e they went 61 yards in five plays. They gave the game trophy award to T e rry Bradshaw but it should have gone to a slim , slight receiver out of a black college in Alabama who is usually thought of as the “ other” end whom you throw to only when Lynn Swann is double-covered. John Stallworth seemed to pluck the football out of the ear of a defender all afternoon, like a magician taking your watch out of there. You half-expected the football to sprout a bouquet of a rtific ia l flowers. Stallworth caught three passes for 121 yards. Of course, Bradshaw had to deliver the ball but T e rry ’s 309 yards passing included three interceptions and at least one other that should have been. T H E STEELERS HAVE now won four Super Bowls in six years. They do it w ith the Big Play plus defense. They don’t need the ball much, they’re the only team in the league that can be down, 21-7, w ith five minutes to play and have the other team play rig h t where they want them. They’re threats to score fro m the locker room. T heir only weakness is, they can’t sing So the Rams ended the season 11-8. B ut it was hardly a Minnesota Vikings Super . ¡GBowl performance. They shocked the Steelers. “ One of the toughest Super Bowls I ever played,’’ grimaced Bradshaw after the game. “ I wasn’t surprised at the way the Rams played. T hat’s what makes great team s,” acknowledged the Steelers’ meanie, Joe Greene. “ We expected a tough game and we got it , ” added Rocky Bleier. Ram Coach Ray Malavasi was s till fu ll of fig h t “ They didn’t outplay us, we ran on them, we threw on them. We’ll be back.” (c) 1980, Los Angeles Times TEIEVISION SERVICE SANDY AUTO BODY INC. 3B65O Pioneer Blvd Sendy.

In case you missed it between the ex ploding palm trees, m irro re d cards, silver streamers, snake dancing, and Jit terbugging the score was 31-19. This was of only m inor interest to the peasantry who came out w ith their bodies painted black and gold or their heads shaved w ith some football p layer’s number painted on them. The parking lots were a sea of catered champagne parties I t was a m oral victo ry for the Rams. M oral victories you can take to the store and get y o ir nickel back. The game was quite good considering it was the most m inor of the events on the Super Week calendar. The score belongs on the society pages To preserve the sp irit of the occasion, the teams should have played in tuxes or sw allow-tail coats and corsages. I t ’s not an athletic event anymore, i t ’s a carnival. M ardi Gras w ith firs t downs. THE OUTCOME WAS as predictable as San Diego weather. Pittsburgh Steelers always win Super Bowl games. They’re getting monotonous. But they must have thought somebody else showed up in Ram uniforms. These were no Hollywood sissies, no college of profiles, no rhinestone cowboys, no Sunset-and-Vine lilacs w aiting fo r th e ir big break in pictures, no guys bucking fo r a screen test. The Rams didn’t show up w ith m irro rs or makeup men, they were a scratching, scram bling, stubborn, socking team of alley fighters, swarm ers spoiling fo r a scrap. They came into the game w ith a rookie a t quarterback, their best player playing on a broken leg and a 9-7 record and a team that scored only 323 points and gave up 309. They shouldn’t even have been able to get tickets. The firs t 50-0 game in Super Bowl history was freely predicted, indeed, expected Pittsburgh is such a tough town Bugs Baer once said even the canaries sing bass there. I t ’s a harsh slag heap of a city w ith sausage and beer on its chin and your options are the coal m ine or the steel m ill. You wear a hard hat and a lunchpail and leave the change on the bar till you’re through d rinking, and nobody raised on orange juice or under palm trees is sup posed to be able to knock heads w ith you. They get guys out of Penn State whahave had to shovel snow — or coal — to live to knock you down. You didn’t give the Rams much chance against these cavemen, guys who call the w ife “ the old lady’ ’ and have American flags and “ D o ra " tattooed on their arms. I t ’s a town w ith hair on its chest and a team to match and the R am s’ best chance seemed to be a bus wreck on the Pasadena Freew ay.
