Ramblers Bounce OTI
in Grid Opener, 33-7
. .The Seattle Ramblers combined a potent passing and
ground game with a stonewall defense last night at Modoc
Field as they completely overpowered the younger Oregon
rTech Owls by a 34-7 margin to mar the Mile High eleven's
1995 season debut before a large crowd of hometown
followeri.
Coach Don Sprinkle's semi-pros from the Evergreen
State used to good avail the passing of four different
quarterbacks and the running of 12 backfield men to out
class the collegians from Tech.
Although they were outplayed at, every turn, the Owls
were not to be outdone in spirit and remained in the
battle until the final horn.
The showing of the 1955
model from OTI displayed
plenty of speed In their los
ing, efforts. Some observers
.rightfully agree with head
coach Rex Hunsakcr in say
ing this year's Owl football
squad may well develop into
the finest to play unacr ure-

If we are correct, It was this

Friday night at Modoc Field as the Shasta High Wolves of
Redding pounded out a 26-7 decision over the homesfanding
KU eleven. .. '
The non-conference prep battle was sparked by the
running, passing and deliberate ball handling of Redding
quarterback Dave Robison, then darkened by Klamath
fumbles at deadly moments, as the Wolves picked up their
second win over KUHS in seven tries. The last Redding
triumph came in 1952 when they outscored the . Pels 28-0.
In last night's encounter, which opened like a fumbling
match, the Wolves jumped to a quick 6-0 lead and were
never headed from this point on. Redding fumbled on the
nrsi piay ot me game and
Klamath recovered, only to
lose the pigskin three plays
later on another fumble. This
set up the first tally for the
invaders.
Robison started tho downficld
march of 88 vaitls tor the score
by ineaking nine yards to the 21'.
Thirteen plays later, plus the help
of two major penalties of 15 vards
apiece against the Pels, the ball
rested on the Klamath five yard
line with third down coming up.
Jim Carter took a handolf from
Robison and plunged five yards for
the TD. Bill Loudorback's try for
the extra point went astray and
the score stood 6-0 with 2:50 re
maining In the opening period.
In the third chanter of the Fri
day evening fracas, Redding got
their second scoring break four
plays Into the period. Butch Kimp.
ton faded back from his own 25
to throw a pass, but a pair of
hard-charsing Redding linemen hit
him and the pigskin popped free.

push the score to a 13-0 margin
