Soggy loss for Dallas § The violent wind blew the heavy rain nearly sideways at times at Mountaineer Stadium last Satur- day afternoon while fans held tight- ly to umbrellas, some of which blew inside out when greeted with big- gest gusts. First-year Dallas football coach Bob Zaruta cited reasons other than the weather for this team’s 28-7 loss to Abington Heights — mistakes and missed opportunities. One big mistake came on the en- suing kickoff after Dallas took a 7-0 lead on a 31-yard touchdown pass from Ryan Zapoticky to Darik John- n at 2:56 of the first quarter. Another came late in the third quarter when Abington receiver J.C. Show got past the Dallas sec- ondary, hauling in a 55-yard touch- down pass for a 21-7 lead. The Mountaineers pulled off a successful fake punt after the sec- ond Abington fumble - successful until the Comets recovered a fum- ble at the end of the run. Abington scored its last touch- down with 7:38 left in the fourth quarter when the Comets took ad- vantage of a short punt and Dallas’ inability to sniff out a screen pass. on a fourth-and-7 on the 11-play, 32- yard drive.
