Muckers are 2-1 after Pocafello tournament by CRIS FELLOWS Record guest writer It was a rude awakening on Saturday, April 23 for the Park City Muckers at the annual Pocatello rugby tournament. The Muckers opened the tourney with only 10 players against the side from Billings, Mont, and were forced to fill the Park City roster with five players from other teams. Billings rolled over the motley arrangement, scoring 30 points to Park City's 0. ' The second game of the tournament proved to be a step in the right direction for the Muckers, who took the field against the Albertson College Coyotes from Idaho. Park City's Michael Paul and Jay Volezke arrived, a bit late for the opener but in time for this game, and proved to be the difference. Paul scored the first points of the tournament for Park City on a try, but the conversion was missed leaving Park City's lead at 5-0. The lead was short lived, however, as a defensive breakdown allowed Albertson to score a try. With the successful conversion, the Coyotes led 7-5. Paul responded by picking off a pass and rumbling 45 meters for a try, his second of the match. Mucker captain Steve Creer hit the conversion kick to add two more points, giving Park City a 12-7 lead. The Coyotes would move back upfield and were threatening to score another try when they were awarded a five-meter scrum. Park City's forwards answered back with their best scrum of the day, pushing the Coyotes back off the ball and winning possession. Mucker scrumhalf Jeremy Dold passed the ball out to Volezke at flyhalf, who booted the ball into touch. The final whistle blew at that point so the Muckers had dodged the bullet and escaped with a 12-7 victory. In their third game, against the Cobras of Bozeman, Mont, Park City opened the scoring in similar fashion to their second match, with Paul touching the ball down in the corner of the try zone, picking up his third try of the tournament The Cobras came right back and knotted the score at 5-5 before Mucker breakaway Jud Hill scored. Creer hit another conversion kick, putting the Muckers up 12-5. Park City padded the lead off of a loose ruck when the ball went out to Paul at center before coming back in to Volezke, who touched the ball down under the posts. Creer was again good with the kick, giving the Muckers a 19-5 lead at the half. Though the Cobras would score twice in the second half, they would come up short and Park City ended the tournament with a 2-1 record. The Muckers travel this weekend to Missoula, Mont, for the annual Maggotfest which features teams from around the United States and Canada. Park City will play its home opener on May 7 at City Park against Skyline.

Region X rival Lehi emerged victorious with 139 points, but after Park City (133 points) the third-place Uintah Utes were a good 36 points back, showing just which teams are head and shoulders above the rest For the boys' team it was a different story as Uintah won with 128 points, Lehi was second with 113 and Wasatch was just a smidgen back in third place with 110.5 points. Park City was fourth overall and fourth among Region X teams with 82 points.

Lisa Knudsen was second in 13:57.48 and Marie Roberts finished third with a time of 14:15.01.

Unfortunately, the final lead change was in the Wasps' favor as a four-run fifth inning put them up 10-9. They added two more in the seventh to win 12-9. , Still, Park City generated some big offense in the game, scoring nine runs on 11 hits. Reyna Castillo was the big gun for the Miners, hitting a three-run homer in the four-run fourth inning. Castillo was 2-for-4 in the game, also hitting a single to right in the third inning. She later scored one of Park City's two runs in that inning.
