If it boils down to her choice. Yard says Clearfield is where she'd like to stay at least for a while. But as of late, tight city budgets have usually had a lot to do with most people's choices. CARTERS LONE local win was achieved with a heave of 58-- 1 ':, almost two feet better than his nearest competitor. Webers Cory Swenson finished second in the high jump, with Roys Mike Reske finishing in a tie for third. Both boys cleared Keith Wilson of Lay ton finished third in the dash, while the Lancers relay team took third place. 6-- 200-met- 400-met- er SPENCE DeGRAW of Davis nailed down the remaining top individual finish in the dash, zipping to a time of :22 and a third-plac- e showing.

But perhaps the factor that will have Yard stay with the city is a proposal presently in overall recreation program , , . - DA Two BYU players were picked in the eighth round of the NFL draft last week which brought the total to seven players who were picked in the annual event. the budget which asks for II) DRAPER Lancers Win Crown THE SELECTION of wide receiver Lloyd Jones by the New Y ork Jets and running back Eric Lane by Seattle brought to seven the number of BYU players chosen in the draft. BYU had five players drafted last Tuesday, including tight end Clay Brown, defensive end Glen Titensor, running back Scott Phillips, offensive tackle Nick Eyre and linebacker Glen Redd. BykEITH DUNCAN No one gave LAYTON them a chance, not even the Layton High team itself. But with a few surprises and a bunch of enthusiasm, the Lancers performed almost the impossible by finishing the Region One season tied with the Bonneville Lakers for the region crown. FLINT CLAIMS 40th DUAL MEET WIN Coach John Flint of Clearfield claimed his 40th dual meet victory since coming to Clearfield by defeating Sky View 0 last Wednesday afternoon in Clearfield. was the BRAD HAWKINS coach that led the Layton 91-5- bunch from a predicted fourth record or fifth place to an and a berth in the 1981 state baseball playoffs. Hawkins clearly loves the spring sport and his exhibited enthusiasm couldnt but help rub off on his players. In his first full season as a head coach on the prep level, there is probably little argument about a selection for a coach of the year. 2 4-- FLINT HAS also got two region championships to his credit since coming to the school in 1975. This week he is out to defend his region crowm and are favorites to capture the 1981 event. Brian Wright was the star of the win over Sky View. The junior sprinter raced to first places in the 100, 200 and 400 meter runs. MARK CARTER of Clearfield claimed two firsts with a common victory in the shot put and a win in the discus event. In other track meets last Wednesday, Layton edged Weber 0 while Bonneville handled Roy BEING VERY honest about his comments on the season, Hawkins stated, I dont think the kids thought they could win this thing m the beginning. But about halfway through the schedule, they admitted to themselves that it was possible and kept right after it." A loss to Bonneville last 71-7- 88-5- 3. member that game Im sure." It appeared very early that Sylvester was in for a long one when in the first inning, Layton's Jeff Pierce reached the bases on a hard hit and Lance Brightshue followed just a few pitches later w ith an awesome looking home run over the centerfield fence. EXCLAIMED WOW, Bonneville coach, Steve Gardner. That boy can hit it." The contest continued on to be a wild hitting affair with Sylvester surviving the seven innings and getting another complete game to his credit. Layton had David Draper on the mound who was replaced late in the game. Dave did a super job. He had to throw a lot of change ups because of the kind of hitting club Bonneville is. ' OVERALL OUR pitching turned out to be something like a miracle. The kids really came through, said Hawkins. Layton's other main starter was Mark Woodward who record m posted a sparkling 0 league play .His ability to keep his pitches low enabled him to have the kind of season he had. Besides such a strong showing on the mound. Woodward was also a clutch hitter at the plate where RBI's became a spe- cially. THE LANCERS have plenty going for them as they enter the playoffs next week. Take for instance the powerful Brightshue who was moved to first base and has performed well there. Before the Bonneville contest he was hitting above the .500 mark, had six home runs and some 22 RBI's. Another bright spot happens to be in Brian Murray who has demonstrated some steady plav all season. Only five or six errors at shortstop in his first full season at the position does not seem bad at all. His hitting has been torrid here late in the season. His three for three game against Roy was one big reason why Lavtonwasableto dispose of the Royals the two times they met "I was hoping for at least one." said funds to pay a fulltime recreation assistant The decision on the funding is still pending according to city officials. ANOTHER FACTOR to consider is Yard's recent en- - THIRD BASEMAN, Jeff Pierce committed only three errors from his position all year long. Hawkins hopes that kind of play will continue into the playoffs. Alan Gentry missed the Bonneville game with a knee injury but is expected to be back in the lineup next week. He is the team's second leading hitter and leads the team in stolen bases. the nicest surprise for Hawkins was the emergence of his sophomore catcher, Kenny Heath. In his first year that he has ever caught, Heath put together some solid defensive performances from behind the plate. He is also the third leading hitter on the club. Hawkins has a way of getting this team enthused and has often told them if they see him walking around, they have permission todothe same. "Baseball could be a boring game if you let it be. We just try to have a little fun," he said. BUT PROBABLY year-lon- g second loss in league play.
