It turned into a pinning contest for the Pioneers, however, and they won 55-9 They beat Roosevelt 69-9, and Franklin 61-2. As a team they had 179 points, with Aloha taking second w ith 112, Franklin ended up with 74, and Roosevelt with 43. Calhoun said they had a good start, which might have made the d if ference against Aloha They pinned four of the first five Aloha wrestlers. Mike Rohweder. a 130 pounder, pinned Mark Emery, who went to state last year. Tim Systma, Sandy’s heavyweight, also pinned an Aloha wrestler that has been to state And, Randy Carmony, a 191 pounder, won 7-0 over an opponent that has been to state Calhoun was pleased with Larry Topliff, who wrestled up a weight class, at 115, and won 14-5 against a good Aloha opponent He said th a t C arm ony and Roweder also wrestled exceptionally well Carmony was pinned by Aloha's Ken Brown last year, but "complete ly dominated" Friday night. A ll in all, Sandy had 11 champions in the 13 weight divisions They in clude Systma, Carmony, T opliff, Rohweder, John Cox. a 98 pounder, Dave Kenison, a 115 pounder.

" I was very, very pleased," Calhoun said " I'm not sure what happened there.” He said that after they started winning in the lower weights, the other teams would just give up. or something. He said, "We pinned kids we shouldn't have pinned." He said that Franklin recently won a tournament, and won it handily " I assumed they would be a very com petitive team ," Calhoun said. ‘‘Well, we won 61-2." The wrestlers are ranked number two in the Oregonian’s coaches poll. Calhoun seemed a little apprehensive about that. " I t doesn't take a whole lot to take a team from second place down to fifth, or whatever, you know." The last home wrestling match before Christmas is tonight at 7 p.m. against West Linn. I t ’s the Pioneers first league match. "Traditionally they have a well- balanced, tough team ," Calhoun said “ They usually don’t have the real outstanding individuals, but every match is a good one." Sandy «».

He said there have been times when he’s offered to take Dan to a ball game or a wrestling match, and he’d say he needed to study instead. Fred Martin, Corbett Elementary principal, said that when they lived on a 30-acre farm in Redland one of Dan's responsibilities was to m ilk their two cows. Dan was wrestling at USA Oregon in Portland at the time, and between m ilking the cows, wrestling and stu dying, he'd be up until midnight. Finally, he decided to give up the wrestling A lot of kids would have foi d something else to give up, Martin said. Several SUHS underclassmen were taken to the banquet Monday night, and M artin feels that could have a good effect. "A kid has to realize that (award) is w ithin his grasp." M artin said. Martin, the lineman representing the Tim ber Valley League, shared the spotlight Monday with Scott Fish of Oregon City, a TVL back When asked about the award, Dan M artin said that he was surprised, and then commented on the size of the linemen that received nomina tions fro m the o th e r leagues (Wilamette Valley, Wilco, Metro and P IL ). Among the more than 900 that were there to applaud for the scholar- athletes were G overnor V ic to r Atiyeh and Portland Mayor Frank Ivancie. D arryl Rogers of Arizona State University was the speaker, and M artin received his award from ,'je Avezzano, Oregon State University football coach. George Shaw, an All-American quarterback at the University of Oregon in 1954, was master of ceremonies. "Dan M artin is an outstanding young man who represents his fa m i ly, his school and the community w e ll," said John McMahan, SUHS principal McMahan was at the banquet, and said that it was nice to see M artin receive the recognition he deserves. "H e ’s performed at an exceptional level scholastically, and he has a hard schedule. "H e ’s an excellent example of what hard work w ill do for you," he said. McMahan said that he really en joys M artin's personality. "H e's humble," he said. "H e ’s not the kind of kid that flaunts it." McMahan said that he agrees with the National Football Foundation's choice, adding thnt M artin is a pro ven leader. "W e’re proud of h im ." Pioneer girls roll to second w in; New sets scoring record by SCOTT NEWTON Senior Dawn New broke her own scoring record Friday night, con tributing 32 points to the Pioneers' 50-43 win over Wilson. More importantly, the girls got their first win. And they followed it up with a 44-42 win over Hillsboro Tuesday, evening their record at 2-2. Junior Linda Mosbrucker made a key five footer with about a minute and a half left in the game on an assist by sophomore Sharon Jensen. "Sharon Jensen made some assists tonight that were unbelievable," Coach John Smith said, adding that she had her usual half dozen steals. He credited M osbrucker w ith showing "e x c e lle n t com posure" against Hillsboro’s press, which forc ed them out of the press in the second quarter, and perhaps made them hesitate before getting back into it at the end of the game, when they need ed it New contributed "a decisive eight blocked shots,” and Cindy McCoy again rebounded in double figures, pulling down 12. He said that Kellie Garlock played well in relief. "Becky (Rodrigues) is a senior guard with experience and is going to be very valuable this season,” he ad ded, saying that she went in a couple of times and did a good job. “ I think we’ve made a lot of pro gress,” Smith said after they put Hillsboro’s record at 3-2. "W e’ve put together two very good games in a row ." After the Wilson game, in which New scored 32 points, shooting 65 per cent from the field, and made 11 re bounds, S m ith sa id , " N o t to downplay her scoring, but what real ly impressed me tonight was the fact that she had 11 rebounds, and pro bably a half a dozen times when she didn’t get the rebound, knew she couldn't get it, she tipped it away from the defender to keep it alive.” Tuesday night all those blocked shots prompted Smith to say, "F o r awhile Hillsboro thought they were s h o o tin g in to a T o ss-B a ck (tradename for a net).” Smith added that Jensen’s play against Wilson was important. She c o n trib u te d seven steals, fo u r assists, seven rebounds and nine points. He said that even though Ami Aschoff didn’t have real impressive statistics, "she handled the ball well. "She’s starting to operate like a point guard." He said that Mosbrucker's ag gressive play contributes a lot to New and McCoy’s success. "The girls, I think, exhibited a lot of character and intensity,” Smith said Friday night. The girls have an away game with Jackson this Friday. "Jackson is without a doubt a state playoff team. They host as much talent as any team in the state. "W e’re looking forward to playing a team of that caliber to really find out where we’re a t.” Sandy 1« 27 • 24 Dawn New 15-2-2 32.
