Kickers on Road A highly encouraged BYU soccer team will be on a road trip to Denver, Colo, for two Rocky Moun- tain Inter - Collegiate soccer games against Metro State and Denver University on Friday and Saturday. Last week BYU edged Metro State 0 in an exciting match, so Metro will be prepared for revenge. BYU has not lost to Metro in the last five years, but the game on Friday in Denver will be a tough one. The Cougars, who won on a goal by Kevin Miller, are expecting a real challenge from Metro and "our players are ready for that." said BYU head coach Jim Dusara. Forwards Miller, Scott Dobrusky, Eric Taylor and Doug Langlois are all freshmen potential strikers who join the experienced players like Randy Daniel Pereyra and Jimmy n, Ward. It is doubtful that E.A. Adelke. Chris Osorio and Ken Wagner can join the squad due to injuries of last week. Fortunately, "we have some new players to take their positions and play Local talents from Provo, Brent Diamond, Roy Clark, and the goalies Kip Billings and Coleman Barney (Orem) should provide a strong defensive lineup along with veterans Eddy Escobedo, Lanie Black, Steve Kinut.

Hutchinson's serving, supported by hitting from Colleen Hawkins and Laurie Bown kept the Thunderbirds on top of the contest from the beginning of both games. Payson was plagued by misjudgements in what coach Kay Isakson termed its worst showing so far this year. The team picked up too many fouls at crucial times that a point could have been scored. Timpview coach Jeanette Fishier attributed the Thunderbird showing to height and experience. "We have three girls over six feet," she explained. "Last year the girls were brand new but now they are more experienced. It's this experience that helps them make better judgments."
