by Sg. The Dallas Post SPORTS Knights capture shoe with 7-0 win By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Writer A first quarter touchdown run by Terry Martin was the only score of this year's Old Shoe game be- tween Lake-Lehman and Dallas. However, it was enough to give the Black Knights the win as tough defense and the cold weather kept both offenses in check as Lake- Lehman won the game 7-0. “Our team is a good bunch and they proved it today,” said Knights Coach Rich Gorgone following his team's 7-0 win over Dallas to take the Old Shoe. “They wanted this ssame and théy went out and got it. We | was a great win against a very good Dallas team. There were two great defensive teams on the field today. “Martin is a great runner and back but he is also outstanding on defense and is our leader on de- fense in a game. His run today made all the difference in the ball game. In the opening minutes of the ‘game Monday at the Knights field Martin cut away from the outside Dallas linebacker and cut inside to run 29 yards for a touchdown. Sam Gorgone kicked the extra point to give Lake-Lehman a 7-0 lead, all that was needed to give the Knights the Old Shoe for the next year. It was an evenly matched game throughout the entire game with the exception of Martin's run in the opening minutes of the first quarter. Dallas had 12 downs to the Knights four, they out-rushed the Knights and they out-passed them but after the Mountaineers first blunder on the opening play both teams played a strong de- fense the rest of the way. The Mountaineeers had drives into Knight territory time after time but each time the Knights defense held and the Mountaineers couldn't make it into the end zone. The Knights after the first score were unable to move against the Mountaineers and had only one first down the entire game after Martin's score. Mounts soccer team downed in state semi's By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Writer Coach John McCafferty’s Moun- taineers ended their season at 18- _3 Monday afternoon when Pali- @¥ades soccer team defeated them %-2 in PIAA Class AA quarterfi- nals. Palisades scored first at 15:06 in the first quarter but the Mounts tied it at 1-1 when Brian Miller scored unassisted at 9:01 in the same period. Palisades scored twice in the second period but Dallas couldn't get a shot past the Pali- sades goalie Kevin Bunkin. In the third quarter Pat Morris made the only other goal for Dallas when he scored unassisted to move the score to 3-2. Morris and Miller tried for scores in the fourth quar- ter but Bunkin turned their shots back each time. ® “We needed to score quickly in e third period,” said Coach John McCafferty. “We can play better than we did. I don't think Pali- sades is any better team than those in our conference. Our boys have had a good year.” Dallas made it to the semifinals “nan exciting game as the Moun- taineers proved to themselves and to their fans that they could con- tinue to play as a team when one of the players were down. They did that last Wednesday night when they defeated District 1 champion Lansdale Catholic 2-1 in a four overtime contest at Owen Roberts Stadium in Phoenixville. The Mountaineers went into the game under pressure knowing their varsity goaltender Matt Butler would not be able to play. Their fears were unfounded when their junior reserve goalie Justin Swain made the big stops when he had to for Dallas and went one on one with their opponents best shoot- ers. : Dallas Coach John McCafferty said Swain played an excellent game. “He was outstanding. -He made the great plays when we needed them. He didn't give under pressure.” Swain allowed only that one goal against the Mountaineers but he made 19 saves in all to keep the Mountaineers in the game. He not only came through in the shutout but in the regular game and in the overtime periods. His big play came in the shoot- out when with the score tied at 1- 1, only Brian Fett, Ned Palka and Mike Tomaine put the ball by the Lansdale goalkeeper Derec Schroding and when Lansdale Martin Fisher tried to put the ball in the lower left hand corner Swain knocked it away. Palisades edges Dallas in state field hockey tourney By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Writer Dallas girls field hockey spent most of Monday's game against Penn Manor in their opponents end of the field but they were unable to get the ball in to score. They had a; opportunities to score but ever got a clear shot at goal. The Penn Manor offense cleared the ball downfield every time but the Lady Mountaineers brought it back up every time. “Their goalie was outstanding,” said Dallas coach Robyn Jones. “It's frustrating when you domi- nate the game but can't get them in the net. They had a strong de- fense. We were beaten by a better team,” said Jones. The girls loss to Penn Manor in the AAA PIAA playoff ends their hopes for a state title. Penn Manor's only score was made by Beth Bleecher off an as- sist by Alissa Mawrer early in the first half. I The girls made it to the quarter- final round with an impressive 3-1 victory over Southern Lehigh last week. The girls played a great offen- sive game in the first half of the first round playoff against South- ern Lehigh. The two points they made in the first half were big ones because they came out in the second half and began to play defensively and Lehigh began to swarm all over them. ~ “We played offensively in the first half,” said Coach Robyn Jones and took a 2-0 lead but then the girls made a few mental mistakes and started dropping back.” Sue Richardson made the first goal for Dallas unassisted in the - first halfand Nina Mathers made it 2-0 when she scored unassisted a minute later. In the second half despite Southern Lehigh's aggres- siveness Karen Wisnieski worked her way up field and put in a goal off an assist by Sue Richardson which gave the Mountaineers an insurance lead. Dallas sophomore Brian Burd carried for 72 yards and led the Mountaineers with scoring marches several times but each time they were turned away by the Knights defense. In the second half the Knights played conservative football and the Mountaineers defense held them from running against them. Early in the fourth quarter Dallas threatened to score against the Knights but their hopes died when quarterback John Morris fumbled and it was recovered by Knight Randy Parry to stop the drive. “I'm proud of the way our kids played,” said Dallas Coach Ted Jackson. “They played hard and they have all year. Any one could have won Monday's game. The Knights are bigger than us but we held up well against them physi- cally. They got the big play we didn’t.” FIRST DOWN - Mountaineer Brian Burd carried the ball for a first GOOD FOR 6 - Lake-Lehman’s Terry Martin breaks through the inside and goes 29 yards for a touchdown in the opening minutes of the Old Shoe game Monday (Post Photo/Charlot M.
