Down south, Berwick, a perennial power, also fell prey to the upset bug. Fortunately, Dallas avoided being part of that list--but just barely. Regarded as a strong contender for the WVC division 11 title, the Mountaineers were not supposed to struggle as much as they did on Saturday with Hanover Area, a team that won just once a year ago, and this is probably still a year away from seriously challenging for the crown. But Dallas didn’t look as sharp as its pre-season billing read, and Hanover was stronger than anyone expected. Combine the two and what you get is a 7-6 Dallas victory that could have easily turned in favor of the Hawkeyes. “Maybe it was the first game jitters but our offense just didn’t execute,” Dallas coach Ted Jackson said. We did well on our openng drive, and I felt if we could take it in for a score, that might have changed the game a little.” Indeed it might have. The Mounts picked up 43 yards on their first series alone. But after that drive fizzled out, so did the offense. Dallas gained just 24 yards the rest of the half and, with the exception of Ryan Holthaus’ 33-yard burst to open the fourth quarter, just 38 more in the second. Fortunately, Dallas did have two elements in its favor. First, a Hano- ver offense that was too young and inexperienced to challenge for a score, and second, a solid Mountai- neer defense to make sure it didn’t. “I was pleased with our defense,” Jackson said. “They kept us in the game.” And they practically won it for them, too. It became apparent that neither team was going to be able to sustain any long drives, and that the outcome would probably be decided on a turnover. The Mounts had one opportunity and they made the most of it. Eric Olsen recovered a fumble on the Hanover 15-yard line on the opening kickoff of the second half. Five plays later quarterback Scott Fran- cis hit Ed Kwak with a five yard touchdown pass and Jerry Ogurkis added the crucial PAT. The Hawk- eyes, on the other hand, had three chances but only made good on one of them on on a five yard touchdown reception by Jason Martinez. But the two-point conversion attempt was thwarted thanks to hard Dallas rush, and Kyle Boud- reaux, who batted quarterback Joe Ropietski’s pass away in the end- zone to preserve the win. But Jackson and his team won’t have much time to celebrate. In two weeks they play host to Crestwood, a team that wallopped a talented Meyers club, 42-22, and a team that beat them 3-0 in a controversial game last year. This time the motivation should be there. By CHARLOT M. DENMON For The Dallas Post Lake-Lehman’s Black Knights were down 6-3 in the first half and with 11:28 left on the clock in the fourth quarter, it appeared Bishop O’Hara were going home with a victory. Lenn Annetta had other ideas and led his tema down field with a 10-play 68-yard drive with Knight Scott Wascalus going in from the five for the winning touch- down. Highlight of the drive was Quart- erback Annetta’s 30-yard hit to By JOHN HOINSKI Statf Writer cally cast in the role of underdogs. same in the women’s division. twice this year. in the world. one-quarter of a mile to go to the finish, Bulman, 27, of Columbia, Mo., raced by her coming through the arches of the College Misericordia entrance to post the win! Asked what her reaction was when Bulman passed her by, Brening laughed, ‘I called her a bitch.” Actually the two are good friends and they talked about each others skills. “She’s a". better biker, but I'm a better runner,”’ Bulman explained. “But now she is improving in her running and I’m improving on my biking.” “Last year she was beating me by a lot more,” the 26-year old Brening from Kirland, Wash., said. ‘But now the races are getting closer and closer.” The four will go at it again in September at Hilton Head, South Carolina, at the USTA national championships. Glah and Brening already know where they stand. the defeat was By JOHN HOINSKI Staff Writer It is easy to understand why a triathlete would push their body to the limits of endurance when the reward is monetary. But why would a person who knows they have no chance of winning do the same. - “I think it’s a great workout,” said Paul Goeringer, 31, of Dallas who finished in 2:48:08. ‘When you run, you are just excercising your legs. But with this, you give your whole body a a workout.” His wife, Lori, who attended Sun- days race but did not participate, is also into conditioning. ‘‘Last year I hurt my leg so I wasn’t able to enter. This year I was just lazy,” she laughed. For Steve Tuttle, 33, of Lehman, he also believes it’s a good workout, but there are other reasons, too. ‘I think it is a great way to keep in shape, but it’s good to set goals for yourself,” said Tuttle, who finished his first triathlon in 2:33:17. “When I hurt my foot in college, I took took up swimming, and I’ve been run- ning for about 13 years and biking for six. I’m not real good in any one of them, but when you put all three together, you can become pretty competitive.” Maureen Connolly, 23, of Harveys Lake has yet another reason. “I'm really racing against the clock,” said Connolly, who finsihed her fourth triathlon. “I know I'm not going to beat any professional, so I See us oO ae S wo a 3 Y% ers 3 0% at the & Ho 229 1d, , ‘00, Ry U 9. 9, 0 “Op She finished ten minutes better than her performance in 1985.

Scott Kerkowski and Steve Whittaker did a good job holding the Bruins fullback Mark Caputo and Kerkowski and Stan Sims forced O’Hara’s Quarterback Steve Rainey to throw two incomplete passes in the final two minutes of the game. “It was a great win for us,’”’ said elated Knights Coach Rich Gorgone. “We had the open date and we believed it would a great opportun- ity for the kids to open with a game against a team like Bishop O’Hara. They played tough, although they made a few mistakes in the first half. Then they settled down and the kids played well.” The Black Knights did not have an easy time against a strong and determined Bruin team. With only Shafer kicked a punt that went out of bounds at the Bruins seven. O’Hara’s quarterback completed four passes to move his team to the Knights’ 35-yard line. It was then that Kerkowski and Sims exerted pressure forcing Rainey to throw two incomplete passes. The Knights took over and played out the clock, winning 9-6. The Knights took the ball on the opening kickoff and in four first downs reached the Bruins 16-yard line. On fourth and three Knight Bill Davis was thrown by the Bruins, who took over and went the length of the field for the first score of the game. O’Hara’s Mark Caputo capped their drive with a 41-yard VERT [1 touchdown drive to give the Bruins a 6-0 lead. Both teams went scoreless for the rest of the first quarter. It was with only 2:52 left on the clock that sophomore Len Annetta hit Spencer with a 40-yard strike that put the Knights within scoring distance but they had to settle for a field goal to move the score to 6-3. “Our defense could have been better,” said Gorgone, ‘‘The kids didn’t settle until the second half. O’Hara forced us to the air which was fine because Annetta was throwing well and a lot of our new kids did a good job for us.” The Black Knights play Northwest this week. “We can’t discount Northwest,” said Coach Gorgone. “They have a lot of kids coming back and they have a super athlete in Lane.
