improbable victories, including
Tunkhannock’s thumping of Wyo-
ming Valley West, Nanticoke’s oust-
ing of Pittston Area and Crest-
wood’s explosion against Meyers.
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.

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-

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

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

Kevin Carey that set up Wascalus’
score. ;
The Lake-Lehman Knights came
hungry for the win and they played
tough. 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. We
have looked at the films and we
know what we have to work on this
week. We’ll- continue to take ‘one
game at a time, there are too many
balanced teams in the league.”
