W-B W-B Fats
We’re at the midway point in
the football season and here’s
some interesting notes I’ve heard
- from some of my many college
id sources:
— ABC’s Beano Cook made
bush remark claiming the ACC
wasn’t a very good football con-
ference has set off some of the
head coaches. All that they have
to do is look at the source.
Beano’s a jerk! A
— Redskins
Pete Bethard has
one year remain-
ing on his current
contract and is
supposed to be
headed out of
Washington
because of too
"much meddling
by owner Jack
Kent Cook.
— Pro scouts and coaches say
Skins’ Russ Grimm and Oilers’
Mike Munchak can block Dallas’
| Randy White head up, but still
need double team help once in a
while.
— You gotta hand it to the Big
Eight Officials foe admitting
they blew the interception call in
the Oklahoma-Texas game which
allowed the Longhorns to gain a
tie. Washington couldn’t beat
either one of these teams on the
Huskies best day.
— Several coaches believe the
Big 10 is the most overrated
conference in the country. Ohio
State is a good team, but the
others are only ordinary. Michi-
gan has slipped.
— Maryland has circled its
Sept. 7 opener for next season.
The Terps will entertain Penn
State and it will be their best
chance of ending the Nittany
Lions domination which dates
back to when gas was 25 cents a
gallon!
— What’s wrong with the
Dallas Cowboys? Most observers
| believe it has been the sorry
| drafting by overrated Gil Brandt.
— While Penn State is always
praising St. Joe’s remarkable
record, they don’t harp on fact
he’s whipped a heap of times by
the always respectable SEC.
— One coach told me this Penn
| State team is not as physical or
as talented as previous years and
‘| that the Nittany Lions program
appears to be sliding!
a — Most Notre Dame fans I
‘know are counting the days until
Coach Gerry ‘Farce’ Fausts’
five-year deal of mediocrity is
over. It’s roughly around 400
days. The Farce’s actions during
recent Air Force whipping was
rinky-dink. Even some questiona-
ble calls from the refs couldn’t
stop the Fly Boys. ‘Bring back
Joe Yonto to coordinate the
defense. He was Ara’s right-hand
man, but Farce had him doing
odd jobs.
One thing is certain, Farce has
become a legend at firing assist-
ant coaches during his stay in
South Bend. He's set a collegiate
record.
— This week’s polls was a
prime indication of the ridiculous
thinking of the people voting.
All we heard from the promos
on the tube was how No. 1 Texas
was going to battle No. 2 Okla-
homa. So Texas ties the Sonners
in a rock ’em sock ’em head
knocker. So what do the pollsters
do. They jump a very ordinary
Washington team into the No. 1
slot. The polls mean zilch, fans.
Washington is not a very good
football team and the PAC 10 is
lean - pickings. I doubt if the
Huskies could come close to any
of my Super Seven.
— Aren't you a mite tired of
hearing and reading about the
escapades of Mike Rozier? The
best thing about his current
status is he’s left Pittsburgh. To
me, he’s nothing but a tramp
athlete and a sorry representa-
tive of the Heisman crowd.
— Former Crestwood star Matt
LaVigna is seeing more and
more playing time with the Pitt
Panthers and could win a start-
ing slot at linebacker next
season. Chief priority for the
Panthers right now is to get into
the Junior College ranks and sign
some quality defensive backs.
— When a coach has praise for
an opposing player you’ve got to
sit up and take notice. GAR
Coach Charlie Fick told me
recently that he was impressed
with Lake-Lehman’s Chris Van-
Gorder.
Said Big Charlie, “That Van-
Gorder wrecked us on several
running plays even though we
attempted to run away from him.
His punting was big time. The
hang time was such that we told
our players to fair catch or not
even attempt to run ’em back. In
my book VanGorder is a
player!”
— Some of my sources believe
Boston College could capture the
mythical national title. It’s no
secret the Eagles are the dar-
lings of the Eastern media.
Lake-Lehman girls volleyball
team upped its record to 3-7 on
Wednesday by defeating Pittston
Area, 15-8 and 15-2.
Lady Knight Ashley Ruane had 13
serving points and Corrine Smith
played outstanding offense’ and
defense for the team.
The Knights JV’s also won,
trouncing the Patriots with identical
15-3 games. 2
The Knights defeated Coughlin 2-0
Monday, Oct. 15, in a clean sweep
with 15-9, and 15- 2.
Cheryl Nushala served 10 consec-
utive points and had a total of 12
points. Missy Masitus and Smith
‘W§§cre the leading setters for Lake-
ehman.
DALLAS LOSES
After winning their four opening
games of the season, Dallas girls
dropped six straight before defeat-
ing West Side Tech Wednesday, Oct.
17, 15-6 and 15-8 led by Shelli Kohli,
top server and point maker for the
Mountaineers.
Earlier in the week Wyoming Are
defeated Dallas 2-0, Monday, at the
Mountaineers gym.
The Warriors lost the first set 15-9
but rallied to take the second game
lyn Hannigan and Sue Waskiewicz
were top scorers for the Warriors.
Shelli Ko(li and Jill Jobson led the
Dallas girls.
Dallas JV’s defeated Wyoming in
two games of 15-8 and 15-10.
Dallas now has a record of 5-6.
Back Mountain Cosmos U 16 Dis-
trict 11 Traveling Soccer Team won
the League Championships Satur-
day with a 6-1 win over the Moun-
taintop Rangers. The Ranger coach
said they were treated to an excel-
lent soccer exhibition, they showed
us how the games should be played.

Dennis, Brandon Dennis and Chuck
Marshall went undefeated on the
