With 15 boys out for the team, including eight returning let- termen, second year coach Greg Rietmann, feels he may have the manpower to get the job done. A welcome addition to the team is senior transfer. Matt Glimore. At 6 ’4 ” and 190 pounds, he will add muscle to both the offensive and defensive lines. Senior fullback/lineback, Jim Holtz at 165 pounds looks good, and junior Gabe Garcia at 150 pounds should give the Cardinals speed at the split end position. Rietmann plans to run out of the I formation and estimates that 80 percent of the plays will be on the ground with the remainder in the air. He also plans to run three and four man fronts defensively. With the Big Sky League weaken ed by graduation. lone is gunning for one of two playoff berths. Rietmann predicts that Sherman County and Culver, the Cards Friday night foe, will be the powerful teams to beat. The Cardinals started their season last Saturday in Dufur with a four team jamboree. Portland Lutheran, Mt. Hood Christian and the host team, Dufur rounded out the field where each team played one quarter against the others. The Cards first quarter opponent was Dufur. A quick-out pass from David W agenblast to Ryan Halvorsen in the closing seconds gave lone the 6-0 win. Rietmann said the team played very well especial ly considering that it was the first quareter of the season. The dreaded first game jitters ar rived in the second quarter, and along with a few untimely penalties added up to a 0-12 loss to Portland Lutheran. Portland Lutheran scored first on a pass interception return and then again on a pass play. The Cards met Mt. Hood Chris tian in the third quarter where they played to a 0-0 tie. Rietmann felt that Mt. Hood was the best team there, but excellent play by the lone defense kept them scoreless. The Cardinal marched as far as the Mt Hood one-foot line but were unable to punch it in, leaving the period deadlocked. Rietmann felt the Cardinals ha8 an overall good performance at the jam boree. The coaches got to see most of the boys play and he felt it was a good way to kick off what he hopes will be a successful season. The Cards league opener against Culver will start Friday at 7:30 p.m. at home. With Culver being a pro bable playoff contender, this first game is an important one for the Cardinals.
