Trojans Stopped! iy IHIon kers Honkers Capitalize On Troy Errors In Mudfest By BILL COLLD Herald and Newt Sport Editor MODOC FIELD A pair of football mistakes made the dif ference in the two teams play ing here Friday night. They were costly mistakes for the Sacred Heart Trojans and errors of which the alert Lakevicw Honkers took full ad vantage. The first was a wobbly aeri al picked off to set up a touch down and the second fumble in the sea of mud used as a gridiron causing numerous such bobbles also turned into a touchdown. These two scoring probes by the Honkers gave them a 12-0 Rogue Valley League triumph. It - w as billed as the battle of the basement, with the los er ticketed for the dubious hon or of filling this position in the league standings. Both teams went into the con test seeking the initial league victory of the season and if this fact didn't give them equal op portunity at gaining a victory, then the great equalizer mud -did. The sloppy going was the big factor in the contest as the fum ble chart indicates. The Tro jans fumbled four times and lost the ball three of these times and the Honkers had five fumbles and lost the ball on two of these occasions. It was Homecoming for the Trojans and that plus the de sire to end a none too success ful season on a winning note gave the Sacred Heart eleven sufficient incentive. However. Roy Robertson's Honkers, a team which has given the better teams in the loop fits before losing this year, overcame the fired - up Trojans and particularly in the second half. The first half of the contest was played according to the book, with each team giving and taking with the exception Henley Scoring Nark Ended Bjr Bla Pirates A record has ended for the Henley Hornets. Sure, tlie Phoenix Pirates handed the Hornets a 28-0 Rogue Valley League setback, but that was not too surprising. The champion Bucs were sup posed (o w in. The record ended is in the fact the Hornets were shut out for the first time in 46 games. This is a mark carrying over five years of gridiron action. Tlie last team to turn the trick was Eagle Point as a 13-0 setback was sustained by the Hornets. With tlie rain and mud slow ing both teams considerably, the potent pirate eleven went iiito a 7-0 lead in tlie first pe riod and added seven points per quarter for the victory. Tlie Hornets sent a short open ing kickoff to the Pirates which slarted them on their V). Six plays later they had lighted their side of the scoreboard as Dennis Grennen scored from the four. It was Grennen and Jim Cons bruck alternating in the open ing touchdown drive, with Gren , nen sweeping the right side for the score. Tlie teams fought Uirough the mud on even terms the balance of the first chap'cr and most of the second, before the Pirates again struck, this time with but 13 seconds left in the first half. With two minutes left in the second stanza. Ron Williams hit Eugene Hill w ith an aerial cov ering 35 yards and putting the Buos on tlie Henley eight. Groan'sn picked up three and Coisfrruck the final five yards for t!m tally.

It was Jon Granb) carrying over from the five and Wil liams adding the PAT on a run for a 2 10 score. The final score of tlie evening in the fourth period came fol lowing a n pass interception on tlie Phoenix 29 by Constnick. In this drive it was Grennen and Consbruck moving the ball to the Pirate 46 before the speedy Consbruck took the ball on a short-side reverse and raced down the sidelines 54 ard.i fcr the final score. I of the first-quarter error by Troy which the Honkers took with thanks and used to good advantage. How even the contest was is indicated in the first half stats which revealed the Trojans had the better going with the ex ception of the figures on t h e scoreboard and they only count them. It was a 74-55 net yardage advantage for the Trojans in the first half and a 5-1 first down edge. But, the halftime score read 6-0 for the Honkers. It was an aerial picked off by Jeff Sullivan with 5:10 left in the first quarter setting up the first score. This came aft ter the Trojans had proved tough and forced the first punt of the game and were driving. On the first play on the Sa cred Heart 41 after the inter ception, Sullivan faked t h e handoff and gave to halfback Greg Tracy who went the left end route and was in the clear as he turned the corner. Ho traveled the 41-yard dis tance for the score untouched. The PAT attempt via a run failed and it was a 6-0 game. The Trojans came back in the second period to mount a drive carrying deep into Hon ker territory. It was Joe DeNault recover ing the first of two fumbles for him in the contest giving the Trojans the ball on their 48. Good gains by Jim Korsen and passing by Marv Davis and sound blocking carried t h e Trojans to the Honker two be fore tlie Lakeview eleven stif fened and ended the threat. In the second half the Honk ers threatened again as Gary Merrill recovered a Trojan fumble on the Sacred Heart 39. The Honkers traveled to the Trojan 11 on a drive which in cluded a big 36-yard gainer around the left side by Tracy to the 14. Williams added the final PAT on a pass to Granby to complete tlie scoring. The Hornets threatened near ing the end of the fray as they went to a spread formation and moved the ball from their eight to the Phoenix 30 before the pass interception ended the drive. Coach Len Weber felt the Hor ncts did a creditable job against the No. 1 ranked A-2 team in the state and cited the defens ive line for a top inside job. John Riggs, Dick Johnson, Lyle Bergstrom, Roger Fargo, Don Berry, Fred Rodriguez and Alike Zagorsky all received plaudits from their mentor for outstanding work. Weber felt the tremendous bench strength owned by the Bucs was a contributing factor in the defeat. The Pirates now face tlie Douglas Trojans in the state A-2 quarterfinal playoffs.

OSU Rooks Top Washington Pups SEATTLE (UPH - Hie Ore gon State University frosh foot ball team defeated tlie Univer sity of li ashington freshmen 21 13 here Friday afternoon on the strong running of fullback Paul Pifer and quarterback Bob Grimm. Piter plunged for two touch downs and gained 91 yards, 'or the Rooks. Grimm gained 110 yards on 13 carries, including a 36-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Washington scored early in the second quarter on a 47-yard pass from Frank Ettcr to Dave Williams. Their second touch down came late in the fourth quarter when fullback Jerry Williams went five vards around i right end for the score. I linn iVwilc marto all ttirp rnn. versions for Oregon Stat. Oregon Stale dominated the statistics, holding the edge in first downs 21-12. and in total offensive yardase. 401-225. The Rooks gained 338 yards with a strong rushing altat k. However, on second down on the 11, the Honkers were again hit by the fumble causing muddy going and gave the ball back to the Trojans as again DeNault was the man of the hour recovering on the 12. The teams battled into t h e fourth period before another Honker drive to the Trojan 27 was stopped and the Sacred Heart eleven took over. But again the nemesis of both teams struck on first down for the Trojans and the fumble on first down was taken by the Honkers' Merrill again. With the ball recovered on the 24, the Honkers were first hit with a five-yard penalty moving back to the Sacred Heart 29. From this point the drive started, with Tracy, Rich Drinkwater and Vern Plato al ternating on the running and Sullivan connecting with Plato on the key play of the drive. With 8:27 left in the contest and fourth and one for the Hon kers, Sullivan threw the short safety pass to Plato carrying down to the Trojan 12 and a first down. Two plays later the Honkers were across with Plato carry ing the final three yards for the score. The PAT attempt on a run again failed and it was a 12-0 contest with 7:41 left. The Trojans were unable to sustain a closing drive and the Honkers came back and were again threatening in the closing seconds when the Lakeview bench w as cleared and moved the ball down to the Trojan nine when the final horn sound ed. So ended the 1963 campaigns for the Trojans and the Hon kers, with Lakeview ending with a 2-7 overall mark and the Trojans winlcss in nine o u t ings. However, with both teams well - supplied with inexperi enced gridders, possibilities of both becoming threats for the Rogue Leauge honors next year are increased considerably.
