“We have a young team and
Friday night against Tunkhannock
they played like a young team.”
said Coach Mark Kirk after the
Lake-Lehman/Tunkhannock game
won by the Tigers 26-6. “In the
beginning, they made two critical
mistakes and gave up the 94-yard
touchdown, but in the second half,
the kids showed how they could
play. After last Friday, I believe
youll start to see a better team.”
Action in the first half of the
Tunkhannock-Lake-Lehman game
did nothing to arouse the enthusi-
asm of the fans with neither teams’
offense doing anything spectacular.
The Tunkhannock Tigers wasted no
time in the first quarter, however,
taking advantage of the Knights let
down to score two touchdowns and
move out in front 14-0.
Only 1:24 into the second quarter,
the Tigers quarterback Steve Lee
connected with Jim Hammersley
for a 35-yard touchdown pass. The
try for the extra point failed and the
half ended with the Tigers in the
lead 20-0.
In the second half, it appeared the
Black Knights offense came to life
team now
until late in the final period when
Lee threw a pass to Steve King for a
seven yard score in the end zone.
The try for extra points failed and
the Tigers were in front, 26-6.
The Knights outdid the Tigers in
rushing yards, totaling 265 on the
ground to their opponents 156. Lee
hit for four for 15 for 75 yards while
Cadwalader completed five for 21
for 63 yards.
The Tigers had 12 first downs
while the Knights were able to pick
up only six first downs.
In the first quarter, Tiger Kevin
Gilpin scored on the fourth play of
the game, running 52 yards for a
score. Only a few plays later, the
Tigers scored a second touchdown
when Steve King took the Knights
punt and ran it for 94 yards for the
score. Nowells ran the ball into the
end zone for two points.
Lake-Lehman had several
chances to score in the second half
but could not work their passing
game against the Tigers strong
defense.
Tunkhannock’s Coach Tom Oldzie-
jewski is depending on his Tigers
strong defense to play a key role in
their game with Coughlin this week.
The Tigers coach has to work with
his offense so they can give their
quarterback time to throw if they

Neither Pittston Area nor Dallas
showed any great offense in the first
quarter of the game at Pittston last
Saturday night as fans began to
believe they were in for a long
night. Neither team was able to
move the football with the Mountai-
neers held to only eight yards
although they did score two points.
It wasn’t the offense that earned
the two points for the Mountaineers
as Dallas blocked a Patriot punt
into the end zone and, with 6:22 left
on the clock, Mike Ristagno downed
it for a 2-0 safety.
The Mountaineers didn’t hold
their lead very long. On Pittston’s
next possession, Joe Szumski took
the ball on the first play and ran 89
yards for a touchdown. Lou Scarna-
tino kicked the extra point and
Pittston took a 7-2 lead.
Before the half ended, Szumski
gave the Patriots a second score
wn he went into the endzone from
3-yard line. Scarantino made his
BF kick good for the extra point and the
we ended with Pittston in front, 14-
The Mountaineers looked like a
different team the second half. The
offense played more aggressively
and, on the second possession in the
third quarter, went from their 35-
yard line to the Patriots 33-yard
line, using a 10-yard run by Jeff
Spudis and a 17-yard pass from
quarterback Tim Lyons to Mike
Janosik. Their drive was halted on
the next play when Pittston’s Chris
Phillips picked off a Mountaineer
pass.
The Mountaineer drives. were
stalled three times when the
five turnovers for the night.
With 8:48 remaining in the fourth
period, Dallas scored when Charlie
Arnone broke loose from the 22-yard
line ‘of Pittston to go in for the
touchdown after Ron Ostrowski
picked up 43 yards on four carries
for the Mountaineers. Ostrowski ran
the ball into the endzone for a two-
“point conversion to put the score at
14-10.
With two minutes on the clock, the
Mountaineers received the ball on
their own 45 and had a chance to
score again. They drove as far as
the Patriots 22-yard line where M.
Konopki’s pass was picked off by
Gene McNulty on the three yard
line with under 30 seconds on the
clock. f
Dallas Coach Ron Rybak said he
was proud of the, way his boys
played in the second half. He said
the kids really played their hearts
out. :
Rybak pointed out that Ron
Ostrowski played a great game and
gained a lot of yards for Dallas, as
did Jeff Spudis.
(NEXT GAME: (Dallas plays
Meyers on the turf Friday evening
at 7:30 and Rybak and his staff
have their work cut out to get the
team ready for the Mohawks, who
are tied with Hanover and G.A.R.
for the lead in Division II of the
Conference.)
In the second half, the Mountai-
neers picked up 146 yards, 116 of
them on the ground while they held
the Patriots to only 21 yards.
Patriots had a total of 192 yards
165 on the ground and 27 in theair
but lost 35. Mountaineers had a total
of 146 yards, 116 on the ground and
30 in the air but lost 23.
Despite their loss, the Mountai-
ners had 11 first downs to the
Patriots five. Dallas had three pen-
alties for 25 yards,® Pittston eight .
penalties for 50 yards.
The Mountaineers had three
passes intercepted and turned the
ball over on fumbles twice.

To date, most of the games played
by Back Mountain teams of the two
high schools have been more
defense than offense.

Knights will play host to Hanover
Area Saturday at 2 p.m.)
when quarterback T. Willy Cadwa-
lader climaxed a 14-play drive by
the Knights with an eight yard pass
to Chris VanGorder. The Knights
tried for two points, but failed.
From that point, both teams’
offense failed to move the ball, and
again it became a defense game

Bright spot
The Lake-Lehman football team didn’t have much to be
thankful for against Tunkhannock Friday evening, but one of
the brighter spots of the game is shown here. as
runningback Jeff Martin (No. 10) is about to break loose
from a Tiger defensive lineman to gain some yardage.
Hudzik plays at Bloomsburg
In a recent issue of The Dallas
Post, it was incorrectly reported
that Ronda Hudzik has enrolled at
Wilkes College for the 1984-85 school
year. Hudzik, a former stellar ath-
lete at Lake-Lehman High School, is
attending Bloomsburg University
and is reportedly considering to
continue her basketball and softball
career for the Lady Huskies.
