PORI? !aW, Give Up By DAVE WIGHAM Boys F riday night at Layton is the show down that many people anticipated at the beginning of Program To EVialce Room For Girls? the season when undefeated Viewmont takes on the Lancers to decide once and for all who is the best team in Region Two. BOTH CLUBS enter the bat- by DAVE WIGHAM tle with equal region marks, both have picked up that ever so important road 3-- 0 With Title IX taking hold of just about everything and everyone, the latest news from the higher ups is that next year theyre considering giving up one of the boys programs in order to make room for a girls junior varsity program. TO ME THIS would victory and each has kept their home floor advantage intact. On paper by comparing these two teams they appear to be equal. Both have played Ogden, the L ancers won by 3 points while the Vikes won by be a tragedy that could never be corrected. First of all, lets take the reasoning behind the girls having a junior varsity program. Do they really need one? 5. STUDENTS - FACULTY THE IDEAL situation would be to let the girls have their programs without effecting the mens. Why does one have to suffer? By DAVE HUNT Administrators point out that with the addition of another girls team that would cause more problems with the scheduling of the gymnasium. I dont agree, why cant the girls varsity and junior varsity practice during the same time period as does the boys programs in students in overtime decision. THE STARTING five for the Harlem (Don Miner), Head (Jim Hales), Pete (Cliff Pederson), Burnout (Jeff Richards), and Gippeto (Jim Jeppson), were matched with the starting five faculty of Mike Duckworth, Ward Sawley, Kent Draayer, students, ' ON GAME days they can follow the boys example again and have the junior varsity game just prior to the varsity contest. No waste here in travel or expense. Then again who would decide which of the boys programs would be the one to get the axe. There are only two it could be, either the sophomore program or the junior varsity programs would have to be scratched. outscored the students but the kids proved themselves when they ended the third quarter ahead of their teachers 44.38. Faculty rallied back in the final period to tie it up and in overtime Gardner sank two field goals to help bring his team to a close 7 victory. year. Just off hand, I can think of several sophomores that have the talent to develop into good varsity players if given time and practice. These are the players that are seventh or eighth on the sophomore basketball squad. If there was no sophomore program these players would be cut from the team because there would be juniors better than them. HIGH scorers for each team was Gardner with 23 points, and Tick (Dean Storey) with 13 points. Other point makers for the students were Head with 9; Harlem, Golden One (Wesley Gold), and Schroder (John Schroder) all with 7; Gippeto with 5; Reverend (Byron Vincent), Stove (Bill Stoven), Burnout and Jeep (Jepp Webster) all with 2 points, and Brettsi PoofBrett Frodsham) with one point.

The next five guys also did as good as the last next five guys : Dick Brough, Doug Russell, Bruce Bitner, Burton Winters, and Ron Zollinger. Fouls were a big part of the game, the faculty committed 37 fouls while the students only had 15. Percentagewise, from the line, the teachers were 46.7 per cent while the students were 62.2 per cent. Draayer was the only player Layton, Utah 376-427- 0 376-510- 1 Jimmy Watts led OBrian with 33, Ron Stott scored 22, and Bob Roots added 20.

Bremer commented, We had some of the best talent in years, another week and we really could have shown them. STUDENT cheerleaders were Kevin Muir, Richard Love, Sam Ortega and Brad Hatch.

Maybe Im just a male chauvanist but I dont think the purpose of Tital 9 was to cut back on the boys program. As I read it, its to bring the girls up with them. I dont see why the schools cant do that without adding and subtracting from already established programs. If the girls want a junior varsity program give them one, but dont cut down the boys program in order to do it.

Then what do you do with the junior that just needs game experience in order to polish his skills and become a good varsity athlete? Sure the top juniors all play varsity ball but what about the ones that need a little seasoning? I would dare say that there are a lot more boys who have the potential to become good players given the opportunity than there are girls, but why not give them both an opportunity to play.

Yet with their thrilling overtime victory over Judge, the Darts have slipped into behind second place Bingham. That gives the Darts a region mark. pre-seaso- 9 3-- 1 the AGAINST Judge, overall hero for the Darts was their center, Steve Criddle. It was Criddles jump shot with about two seconds left in the overtime period that gave the Darts their third region win. For the night Steve had 16 points and a bundle of rebounds. He wasnt alone in the scoring department as the Davis five showed their balance once again. Pat Benton added 11 and senior Bob Payne put in 10 more points for the Darts. THIS WAS a typical Judge-Davi- s matchup, in the past several years this has become quite a rivalry. Usually when these schools are mentioned its for football but lately the have staged their share of down to the wire antics. All night it was basket for basket as the two teams went at each other. With Criddle, Benton and Payne scoring for Davis and Ray Madsen, Tuny Sheeran and Dave Heaton hitting for the Bulldogs, it was a dogfight all evening. GARDNER is very pleased with the efforts of his team stating that he always felt it was only a matter of COACH time that this club jelled. You have to keep in mind that during the majority of we had five football players trying to play basketball, now we have some basketball players out on the floor. The likeable coach went on to add that although he only won one battle that they were playing the bigger Viewmont And Layton Looking Good in Region 2 schools which more than got them ready for the Region Five action. JUDGE CAME out with fire their eyes as they opened lead at the end up a of the first period. Then it was the Darts turn to take the lead and they did, taking a advantage into the halfin six-poi- two-poi- time talks. Judge retook the lead in the third period, then the Darts fought back to tie it at the end of regulation and then clinched it in overtime. EITHER TEAM could have won but in the end it was and determination of the Darts that paid off. Things could be different next time around when the two play at Judge. In this region the home floor is important, that was proven last Friday. 36 nt F-1- Basketball Action born Tigers. All this points to the overall balance in the league. There are no real dominant teams by DAVE WIGHAM Three weeks into the race for the title of Region Two, a couple of teams have emerged from the pack as the odds on favorites to win the no push-over- s either. Week in and week out any team could beat another. and title. THIS WEEK is a typical example. Viewmont is at BOTH VIEWMONT and Layton have unblemished marks in region action with perfect 0 records. Both have important wins as the Lancers downed Clearfield away from home and the Vikings got past the old rival Layton and thats a toss-u- p in anyones book. Clearfield travels to the Bountiful gym for their yearly battle and that could be anyones guess as to the outcome. And the annual war between the two northern squads, Ogden and Ben Lomond, is always too close to call. Although its tough to predict or pick a winner for this region, due to the balance of the teams, its probably safe to say that no one team will go through the league with an unblemished mark. 3-- Bountiful. The deadlock will be solved this week as the two square off with a game scheduled this Friday at Layton. RIGHT BEHIND these two, to make a move, is Clearfield, who is still con sidered a contender for the mark Cleartitle with a field, however, has won some road games which is essential ready 1 this league. the next spot In THE WAY things have been going, some teams that are supposed to win will lose and some teams on the bottom are going to knock off some of the upper teams. is the up and down Ben Lomond squad One week the Scots look great and the next week they look just the opposite, their only win thus far has been a hard fought win at Bountiful. BEN LOMOND though has probably played the toughest schedule, with the exception of maybe Bountiful, than anyone in the league. They have played both Viewmont and Clearfield, both of whom are strong teams, along with the always tough Bountiful bunch. At the present time the cellar is shared by Bountiful and Ogden. The hard luck Braves could very well be undefeated at this time rather than winless. They had lay-toby the ropes, were head to head with Ben Lomond and lost in double overtime to Viewmont.
