A debut into the Tri-Valley league
for the Madras White B uffalocs proves
satisfactory for both the team and home
town fans as they had to come from
behind to up end a determined Portland
Christian Royal team by the score of 8
3, in a nip and tuck game all the way.
In the first half neither team could
cross the goal line as it turned out to be
a defensive duel. The Royals were able
to put some points on the score board on
a fourth and long from a 25 yard
ficldgoal to put them out front to lead
30, until late in the game when
Madras showed they were just as deter
mined not to be outdone pulled the play
of the game to score their winning TD.
But that wasn'tdonc until aftcraTD by
TJ Foltz was called back on a holding
penality, than a quarterback sack put
them way back to where it looked
hoplcss for them to get the ball into the
end zone.
It was a big decision time and the
play they decided to use was a tailback
sweep pass which cought everyone by
surprize and it worked for their tough
down as Wesley Barnes let the arial fly
into the hands of McRae where he was
in front of everyone and scampered
into pay dirt as the Buffs took the lead
6-3. For the PAT it was Quarterback
Duncan Brunoe who hit Tonv Mcrritt
for the two pointer to give the Buffs the
8-3 lead.
'After the kickoff the Royals made
some desperation passes which fell in
complete or was knocked away by the
defenders. With time running out the
Royals went for it on fouth and long,
but the Buff defense dug in and wouldn't
W hAm haw an inrh as fhft Buffs took
over on downs. As the time was ticking
away the quarter back got the ball and
went down on his knees as time ran out
and their first big win in the Tri-Valley
league by the score of 8-3.

hitting game as the Royals lost their . h
starting quarterback on their first pos
. session of the ball as he was attempting
to pass he was blind sidded by an on
coming defensive back. He was out for
a while and was hauled to the hospital,
but the good news was he was up and
around a short time later.
, On September 30, 1994, the Buffs
will have their work cut out for them as
the Indians are coming to town. "The
Dalles Indians, that is." Last week in
their opener they out lasted the LaSalle
Falcons to win their opener 34-29, in a
squeeker, and a tough game. So this
will be a big test for the Buffs in their
new league.
At the present time The FstamHa
Rangers, The Dalles Indians, and the
Madras White Buffaloes all have a 1
win and no losses, Gladstone 0-0, as
they were idle in league play, while
LaSalle, Portland Christian and
Sherwood all have a 0 win and 1 loss
record.
Notice: The; has been a little
change in the Buff schedule, on Octo
ber 7, 1994, Central of Monmouth was
to come here, but that has reversed, and
instead the Buffs will travel to play
them on the Western Oregon Slate
College football field in Monmouth.
So remember to change your sched
ules on that date.
