M0le Buffaloes Victorious over Vale Buffs wear GOL crown
The game with the Vale Vikings
wasn't as easy as going out and
raking the leaves on a sunny Sun
day afternoon but the Madras White
Buffaloes boosted thcirchancesfor
a state play-off spot by beating
Vale 21-0.
Statistics wise in the running
game. Vale had quite a night with
their speedy running backs, but
through the air the Buffs made up
for the difference. When the game
was all over, yardage for both
teams were sepcrated byjust a few.
The Buffs got real tough on defense
as time and again the Vikings drove
right into scoring position but lost
the ball on downs to the stubborn
Buffalo defense. Senior linebacker
Butch David was instrumental in
stopping the tough Viking drives.
David was around when the tac
kling was being done, if he was not
the initial tackier, he was right
there assisting, he played one heck
of a game on defense. The great
defensive play by David all season
long has gone by unmcntioncd.
Other outstanding players in the
game were lineman John Katchia
and Gilbert Brow n, both carrying a
230 pound frame opening holes for
the ball carriers and protecting the
quarterback on passing. These guys,
behind the scenes make a great
team, also made the ball carriers
look good.
The Buffaloes, by winning the
game, kept their state playoff hopes
alive and also won their homecoming

game. This was the lust appearance
for the seniors in front of the home
town fans. 1 he score shows that it
was a shut-out 21-0. but Vale was
here to play ball and gave Madras
all it could handle before bowing to
the fired up Buffaloes.
Madras hit pay dirt early in the
second quarter when Chris Lytic
pounded his way through on a
three-yard run. A kick by Lytle put
the Buffaloes out front 7-0. It was
the running of McGuire that kept
the defense on their toes and opened
the paths for the other ball carriers.
Double teaming Tony Stacona every
time he went down the sidelines
opened other receivers for short
gains. Later on in the second quar
ter Todd Beamer cut loose with a
long bomb and connected with
Stacona for a 53 yard TD strike.
Even though he was well covered
by Viking defenders, Stacona
managed to pull the ball in and run
untouched for the touchdown.
Another kick by Lytle put the
Buffs out 14-0, at the half time
intermission.
In the final quarter, as time was
funning out, Beamer faded back and
threw a pass to Todd Warner who
went into the end zone for the final
tally for the night, a third kick by
Lytle iced the scoring for the home
town Buffs as they went on the post
a 21-0 win over their arch rivals the
Vale Vikings.
The next stop will be at Baker
for their first meeting on the grid
iron between the two schools. The
game time will be 7:30 MST, on
Friday, October 31, 1986, for the
final league game of the season. A
win could send the Buffs to a state
play-off-spot.
The Baker Bulldogs were no
obstacle for the hard charging White
Buffaloe football team on their
trek toward the state playoffs.
If there were any pre-ga me jitters
the Buffs shook them off some
where between here and Baker.
The Buffs took the opening kick
off and done just what a cham
pionship team should do and thats
to score points. The first score
came from a long pass from quar
terback Todd Beamer to tight end
Brad Wiles with just a few minutes
into the game. The kick failed but
the Buffs were up 6-0 over Baker.
All during the night there were six
different players who scored one of
the seven TDs. Tony Stacona was
the only one who scored two of the
Buffs TDs. Both scores came from
passes from Beamer the first a five
yard strike and the second was a 23
yard pass where Stacona went into
the end zone untouched.
The White Buffaloes led at the
end of the first quarter 21-0, they
added 1 5 more points in the second
quarter to give them a 36-0 lead at
the halftime intermission. Whew!
am I dreaming? Well thats just the
way things went all evening long.
In the third quarter the Buffs
rounded out their scoring with 13
points giving them the lopsided
victory. This win gave the Buffs a
big boost in their moral. They will
need this going into the play-offs
on their next stop.
The defense rose to the occasion
once again stopping Baker cold in
their tracks, allowing them just one
first down in the first half. Each
time they unpiled the tacklers there
again was mat ino. 44 jersey of
linebacker Butch David as he was
right in the thick of things all even
ing long. Todd McGuire and Tony
Stacona did exceptionally well on
defense right along with the big
boys up in the line like Clark Hul
sey, Shane Gomes, Gilbert Brown
and John Katchia. It was just a
great team effort who spoiled the
homecoming game for the Baker
Bulldogs. The struggling Bulldogs
tried everything they knew but the
Buffs had everything closed.
This sort of avenges two jmor
losses to the Baker Bulldogs, the
first in 1963 when Baker came to
town and posted a 6-0 win and the
following year beat the Buffs 24-6.
The Madras White Buffaloes at the
start of the season were not among
the favorites to win the GOL title.
To some of the experts the first two
lessons spelled defeat and a long
road of rebuilding. To others, they
refused to blame the loss from a
poor team. Those two tough games
at the beginning of the year were
just what the doctor ordered. From
then on the Buffs got tougher game
by game. One of the big turning
points was the overtime win over
the highly rated Ontario Tiger team.
That was the only loss for the Tig
ers in league play.
On Saturday November 8, the
Buffs host the Gladstone Gladia
tors here on the home turf. Game
time slated for 1:00 p.m. The first
of the state play-offs games. The
Glads are no one to take lightly,
well any team that reached the
play-offs are no pushovers.
