of two of QB Tim Lyons passes to lead in Dallas’ 31-0
win over the West Side Titans, Saturday afternoon, at
the Dallas field.
Lyons had an outstanding afternoon, throwing for
three touchdown passes and completing 12 of 26
attempts for 222 yards.
The Mountaineers first score came in the first
quarter with 6:59 left on the clock. The Dallas 11 on
their first possession took 11 plays, with a series of
Lyons passes and Ron Ostrowski carries and several
by Rich Holthaus, to get them within striking distance.
On the next play, Long went across the middle on the
five yard line and took Lyons pass and carried it over
for the score. Gerry Mihaliek kicked the first of four
extra points in the game to give Dallas a 7-0 lead.
West Side Tech took the Dallas punt on their own 31-
yard line, but their offense was unable to move the
ball against the strong Dallas defense and on fourth
and seven, they punted.
On their first return play, Mount Ed Kwak was hit
with Lyons 55-yard throw and took it in for a score
with 5:04 on the clock. Mihalick kicked his second PAT
of thegame and the Mountaineers led 14-0 in the first
quarter.
In the second quarter, the Titans played strong
defense to stop the Mountaineers on a drive downfield
and Mihalick came in to try for a field goal. The
Mountaineers failed to score when Tital lineman
blocked the kick.
On the next Dallas possession, Lyons kept to the air
and the Titans had two perfect opportunities to
intercept the Dallas quarterback’s passes but each
time they dropped them. With only 1:29 remaining in
the half, on second and 10, Lyons hit Long with a 29-
yard pass which Long took into the end zone for his
second score in the game. Mihalick kicked the extra
point and Dallas went in front 21-0.
In the third quarter, the Mountaineers continued to
outplay the Titans and scored their final points of the
game. Lyons led the Dallas offense down field but
when they were stopped near the goal line, Mihalick
came in on fourth down and kicked a 27-yard field goal
to move the Dallas score to 24-0.
Ostrowski, who with Holthaus and John Harris, did
most of the rushing for the day, carried the ball into
the end zone fromthe five yard line for a fourth
Mountaineer touchdown. Mihalick kicked the extra
point to give his team a 31-0 lead which is the way the
game started.
In the fourth period, Coach Ted Jackson substituted
with his younger players giving his varsity a rest.
“We played everyone in the fourth quarter,” said
Coach Jackson. ‘We didn’t play Lyons at all.
“Our kids played well in general — very well on
offense, but they could have done better on defense.
Our passing was better, but our running was not. Part
of that is a credit to West Side Tech. They were strong
and aggressive, they played good defense against the
run.”
The Mountaineers play Wyoming Area this Friday, 8
p-m., at Wyoming.
“They’re big and strong, they have great receivers
game. They’re tough but we’ll be there to play,” said
Jackson.

Coach Rich Gorgone took a chance
Saturday afternoon against the Divi-
sion IT Meyers Mohawks.
Lehman, a Division III team in
the Wyoming Valley Football Con-
ference, had not beaten the Wilkes-
Barre team since the early 1970’s. It
was time to show that a Division III
team could play with a long-time
contender of Division II football.
With the score of the contest
glaring off the scoreboard “HOME
TEAM 13, GUESTS 14,” Gorgone
opted for a two-point conversion and
the lead in the game with just over
eight minutes remaining in the third
stanza.

Senior Jetf Martin earned the
cheers of his teammates as he
plowed over right tackle for two of
his 97 yards on the day. Lake
Lehman’s defense ruled the roost
for the remainder of the game and
Gorgone marched of the field with
his fourth victory this season
against only two losses.
The victory, although a non-con-
ference game, helped prepare the
Black Knights for their upcoming
game this Saturday against Division
II foe Nanticoke Trojans.
The Mohawks opened Saturday’s
scoring with an impressive 80 yard
driving on their first offensive pos-
session.
Relying mainly on the running of
junior tailback Raghib Ismail,
Meyers marched to within 15 yards
of the Lehman goaline. On a second
and four call, Ismail took the han-
doff from quarterback Gene Maffei
and rammbled the remaining 15
yard for a 7-0 Mohawk lead.
Most of the first quarter was
spent with both offenses sputtering
around mid-field. However, with
time running out in the first quarter
and the Mohawks in possession at
their own eight yard line, Ismail
mishandled a handoff and Lehman’s
junior defensive end Scott Shultz
pounced on the ball. The Black
Knights were in business at the
start of the second period with a
first and goal to go.
On second down, from the Meyers
13 yard line, quarterback Len
Annetta found split-end Chris Land-
messer alone in the corner of the
endzone for the tying tally with
10:50 remaining in the half.
With the game tied at 7-7 follow-
ing the Annetta-Landmesser TD, the
Mohawks took the ensuing kick-off
and returned the ball to their own 37
yardline.
Meyers alternated running plays
between Ismail and senior Marc
Minichello before Minichello capped
the impressive 13-play drive with a
three yard burst to give the
Mohawks a 14-7 lead with just over
six minutes remaining in the first
half. Be

Dallas Post/Ed Campbell
The Public Since 1887
GoalPOST Petie, who has either
been in first place or tied for first
place every week this season, is
slowly losing ground as Charlot
Denmon and Ed Campbell creep up
on the anonymous prognosticator.
All three now sport identical 27-12
records as Campbell and Denmon
each lost only two games this past
week. Both were skunked on the
Wyoming Valley West-Hazleton
game which saw the Spartans drop
a 3-0 decision and on the Notre
Dame-Air Force game which was
won by Air Force in a 21-15 deci-
sion.
Kilduff, a former employee of a
New Jersey Air Force base,
remained true blue to the United
States service organization and was
the only prognosticator to record a
victory in that contest. Kilduff, who
holds up the bottom of the prognos-
ticators’ ladder with a 14-25 slate,
picked up just one more victory in
the Dallas-Tech game which the
Mountaineers won, 31-0.
. Petie had one of his worst weeks
yet, dropping three of the seven
contests. He was wrong on the
Valley West game, the Notre Dame
game and the Bishop O’Reilly/
Northwest game where Petie gave
the Rangers an edge only to see
them lost an 8-7 decision to the
Queensmen.
are Dotty Martin, who came in at 4-
3 this week, and Joe Gula, who
picked five of seven games cor-
rectly, as they sport identical 25-14
slates.
This week, the odds are with
Wyoming Area as everyone but
Kilduff picks the Warriors to defeat
Dallas. Martin and Gula are the
only prognosticators to give the
Trojans of Nanticoke Area an edge
over Lake-Lehman while Kilduff is
the only one to side with Blair over
Wyoming Seminary.
Crestwood gets a hands-down vote
to defeat West Side Tech as do the
Spartans of Wyoming Valley West
to defeat Hanover.
In the college ranks, Kilduff is
alone in favoring Alabama to defeat
the Nittany Lions of Penn State and
also stands by himself in picking
North Carolina State to defeat the
University of Pittsburgh.
