The competitors boasted an assortment of talent including; The Oarsman, Bat Santa, The Joker, Strudel, and Aulla. The blending of two approaches is the difficulty of Al's Hill. Alpine events with Crosscountry Cross-country touring gear. Mad you say? But of course it is! "The Great Al blessed us with lots of snow this year," said Duane Hendrickson (a.k.a. "Dar"), "so we were able to hold the race on the original site." The race is comprised of three events; the Slalom, the Jell-o gelande, and the obstacle course. Winners in the men's were: First. Jordan Swenson (Al's Pal), second Kurt (name withheld), third Ron (name withheld). Winners in the women's "Al's Gal's": First Tori Pillinger, second Tanya Swenson, third Leslie Thatcher. The Rookie of the Year Award went to Derwin Hendrickson. No poles could be used on the slalom course, the competitor must use a large stick for balance SrB2 J '' 6 V- ' " ",''v - I , - tfc""''""" - " ' - " if' w . - First one over the Jell-o moat wins Park City Muckers lose by David Sundquist special to the Record The Park City Muckers opened up their 23rd campaign on Saturday last at the Exchange Club Park at 1700 South 9th West The men in Maroon and Gold lost, 12 to 17 to Uintia. The Uintia club formed this off season from players coming from two other disbanded clubs; Jesters and Skyliners. The match started out well enough for the visitors, Park City kicked off, and kept Uintia bottled up in their own half for the first five minutes-setting the pace and stymieing any Uintia moves. While the defensr played well as a team, individual tackling was sub-par, sub-par, and would come back to haunt the Muckers. Park City's other major weakness, the inability to control their own scrums would also add to their undoing. To the credit of the Coach and Captain, the team adjusted its scrum at the half, and held their own for the second 30 minutes. The first score of the day came at the 10 minute mark. Park City lost a scrum, but then won possession at the ensuing ruck. Park City controlled the loose play for most of the match. Blair Murray, the Muckers flyhalf, put up an up-and-under around midfield, and the ball came directly to the Uinua Center, who avoided his man, then passed to his wing. The wing ran 35 meters untouched, to score in the corner. After the missed conversion Uintia lead 5 to 0. It took only two plays for Park City to answer with a score of their own. Park City kicked off, and true to the game's flow, won the ensuing loose ball. Again Murray lofted a kick, this time the Uintia fullback under pressure from Muckers Eric Bennett, and Luke Smith, mishandled the ball. and steering. While on the course cat-calling and snowballing were considered part of the run. Any dogs encountered on the course count as a gate and must be negotiated in order to finish. The Jell-o gelande was a kind of jumprace. Four competitors start in lanes, duck under a gate and heave themselves over the dreaded Jell-o Moat. Survivors bottleneck through two gates to the finish. The obstacle course.... well, that's pretty self-explanatory. Due to the three-pin equipment, competitors engaged in spectacular collisions and wipe-outs. wipe-outs. The best event for crashes was the Jell-o moat gelande. The course narrowed to half its width at the bottom, causing racers to wrestle for space. The participants would often scrunch into a ball of snow, skis, and skin. The highlight was a collision between a half naked skier, and a cameraman on the sidelines. The impact caused the skier to roll off the course and into the rocks, dirt, and pine needles. A very rash manoeuver. ' The race was held on Sunday April 11th in Summit Park. The race conditions were optimal, clear skies and sunshine. All in all a fitting end to the ski season. Eric Norgate receives a pass Smith collected the loose ball at the S meter line and dove into the try-zone for Park City's first score of the season. Murray made the conversion, and the Muckers lead 7 to 5. Five minutes later, Park City's Achilles heel was exposed, and Uintia would score twice before the half to take a commanding lead into the intermission. With a half dozen of last year's Championship scrum out of action for this year's opener, the scrum was disorganized, and routinely beaten by by the bigger Uintia scrum. After referee Ra . .

The Muckers held, and a 5 meter scrum was ordered. Again Muckers put-in. Uintia stole the ball once more and pushed the Muckers back across their own goal line. Uintia was first to the ball when it exited the the side of the scrum nearest the goalposts. With a easy shot at the conversion, Uintia regained the lead 12-7. The last play of the half was another scoring opportunity for Uintia. This time the scrum was about IS meters from the goaline, completely downhill v I . .- ;f I' . X I V (J ' !

They moved veteran Mucker Matt Lamphier in from flanker to hooker, and the coach went up to prop from his number 8 position. Luke Smith came in from center to play number 8. These changes turned the scrum around.

Aspen will be host to a men's downhill and super G on March 5-6 with Vail holding a women's downhill and giant slalom March 12-13. Aspen, Park City, and Vail were hosts to World Cups this past year. Breckenridge held a men's giant slalom and slalom in November 1991. "We're happy with the 1994 schedule in the USA," said Alpine Director Dennis Agee. "There is strong interest on the part of a number of U.S. areas in holding alpine World Cups. We had a number of very strong candidiate areas for the additional men's event in November, which was very encouraging." 1 |
