The Portland Observer had an opportunity to interv iew Charles last Thursday and ask him about the up coming challenges of making it to the playoffs. Portland Observer: What is it about the U.P. men that should make them a play off contender?’ Charles: I would have to say it is our consistency and talent. Portland Observer: What do you mean by that? Charles: It means that we strive for consistency and even though we are a young team with a lot of fresh man and sophomores we are a talent ed team. Portland Observer: Are you a offensive cr defensive in your philo sophical approach. Charles: I adjust my coaching philosophy to fit the talent of my players. Portland Observer: So would you say that this team is more offen sive or defensive oriented"? Charles: I would have to say that this team is more offensive. Portland Observer: At what point or what game did you consider it pivotal to this season. Charles: When we defeated University of Washington here 7-1. It was the fact that every thing came together and every thing we did worked. This past weekend Charles and the U P. men had their work cut out for them when they faced number 16th rank Santa Clara in the second half of double header in which the women won the game 3-1. In the second half the men weren’t so lucky as they went down in defeat to the men's Santa Clara. The scoring for the game was decided within the first 8 min utes of the game. The crucial point coming oft a penalty kick by Santa Clara Jeremy Beuttner prov ing to be the winning margin D v s B ei I C live C h a rle s the fo rm e r P o rtla n d T im be r star who played for them from 1978-81 is the Director of Soccer for the formidable Soccer Program at the University of Portland.

B ell F ra n k lin gave B e n s o n 's nu m b e r tw o d efense an unpleasant surprise as they romped to a 52-0 win over the previous 4-2 Techman. It was all Franklin from beginning to end as the Quakers rushed fo r 398 yards and six touchdowns. A bewildered Benson head coach Bill Dressel could only say that his team "must have been emotionally let down from their defeat the previous week to W ilson" Franklin took com- mand of the game during their first possession on the second play when Kenny Jenkins broke a 47 yard run for the Quakers first TD. Jenkins accounted for 209 yards of Franklins rushing total on 15 carries Jenkins is also in the hunt for the P.I.L.rushing tit tle along with Robert Cavil of Madison. “Our team is really coming together” Jenkins said I 11 do whatever it takes for my team to win. He further stated that he looked forward to this game all year although we (Franklin) had to take it one game at a time. These Standings were brought to you by: ALBERTA STREET MARKET ► Open 365 days, 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. -915 N.E. Alberta Frankin dominated both sides of the ball and ended the game with 3 interceptions two by se nior cornerback Shawn Lindsey. The Quakers quickly estab lished the tempo of the game during the first quarter when they went up to a 21-) lead. And when Robert Jamison a transfer from Benson rushed for his first touchdown against his former team the score was 27-0. Jamison rushed for 59 yards on 15 carries. Jamison said that it felt good to score against my school. He also acknowledged that it was a w ise move to tra n sfe r from Benson to Franklin. Jamison also had one touchdow n called back for holding. Franklin is most likely to be one of four P.I.L teams to headed for the state play offs. They can 't afford to dis miss their next two challenges M arshall, and Lincoln despite their records. For all the ex citement and clam our in the P.I.L. it has been years since the Portland area teams has gone pass the first round hope fully Wilson or Franklin can make a credible showing this year to regenerate some respect for the P.I.L.
