Brigham City 70A No. 2 Loses to Logan Brigham City 70A No. 2 was defeated by an extremely good Logan team by a score of 25-Brigham City managed to keep the game scoreless in the first quarter by virtue of fumble recoveries by Pat Lavery and Shannon Whitehead; however, Brigham City was unable to control the ball, giving Logan repeated opportunities to score. Logan scored early in the second quarter and just before the half but failed to convert the extra point on either occasion. The half ended with Logan leading, 12-Brigham had one good opportunity to score early in the second half on a pass completion from Justin Dolling to David Russell. Russell managed to get in the open but was pulled down from behind on the line. A stout Logan Logan defense held and Brigham was unable to reach pay dirt. Logan managed to score again in the third and fourth periods with a powerful ground game which Brigham was unable to contain. Brigham 85A No. 1 Suffers First Loss of the Season The Brigham City 85A No. 1 team suffered their first loss of the season, 13-at hands of a good Logan team. The Brigham crew played very well but Logan scored on two well executed long gains, a pass reverse. play and a Those two plays accounted for the big majority of their 145 total yards. Overall the Brigham defense did a great job of containing the high powered Logan offense. The defensive line composed of Kent Poelman, Chris Cox, Jon Duran, Dwight Goodwin, Tom Williams, and Matt Valesquez kept the pressure on. The secondary composed of John Cox, Jim Eskelson, Cory Menlove, Pat Munson, Richard Hadley and Kelly Shiffler performed well under pressure. The defense set up Brighams only score when Eskelson blocked a punt and recovered it on the Logan line and four plays later, Shiffler powered d over from the line behind the blocks of John Cox, Eskelson, Duran, and Steven Woodruff. The point after try failed. Another outstanding play was made in the second half when Menlove blocked a punt on the Logan 40 which was fallen on by Munson. Tom Williams who played aggressively all game also recovered a Logan fumble. The Brigham offense, lead by two-yar- quarterback David Keller, gained yards with power blocking by Todd Thompson, Robert McGee, Chas. Vogt, Ivan Earl, a big factor in the 100 drive. Rich Woodland also helped the Brigham cause with a return of a kicknifty off. Its to Ogden next week to meet a good Ogden No. 2 team. Brigham City 70A No. 1 Kills Ogden The Brigham City 70 lb. A number one squad taught Ogden number one a lesson in downfield blocking and speed Saturday as the Brigham outfit destroyed Ogden 40-It was by far the best game of the year for the local lads as they built up a 34-- 0 halftime lead and then coasted to the win. They made all but one extra point. Matt Brigham tailback Yeates was the big ground gainer of the day as he chocked up 270 yards on his own cluding a 90 in- yard scamper around left end. He has the speed to break it loose when he gets the blocking and the blocking was provided in a big part by fullback Nick Smith who time after time made the key block to spring Yeates. On the 90 yard run Smith blocked two men, the last two with a chance to get Yeates. Smith also was credited with over 100 yards of offense and picked up an Ogden fumble and sprinted for 55 yards and a TD when playing defense. The Brigham City offensive line so dominated the game that Brigham City averaged a touchdown every 3'2 plays. The defense also played their best game to date and limited the Ogden team to three first downs for the entire day. One in the first half on a penalty and two in the second half. Those offensive linemen are Denton Gordon, left end. Tod beautiful wall of blocking. Kirk Baty carried once more for the successful point after.

Top speed of the "Bird" was points as quarterback Laird handed to Kipp Baty who took it down the field to score. A pass from Laird to Kipp Baty gave Brigham City the point after. Logan refused to be written off and roared back to score. The next few plays were a series of frustrations for Brigham. Logan intercepted two Brigham City passes to end 307.810 mph. The FIM record had been 212 mph and the AMA mark, held by Vesco was 281 mph. The unit was powered by two 750 Yamaha engines.

Logan took advantage of this break and scored again. The point after failed. Brigham Head Coach Del Ayotte and his assistants, Happy Florez, Donny Ayotte, and Don Davis, were pleased with the play of the whole team and especially with the solid blocking of center John Carver and the offensive line. Throughout the day Brighams defense turned in a superb performance with some especially fine tackling by Andy Yeates and Tony Smith. The lOOAs are looking for their second win over a tough Ogden No. 1 team Saturday at 11 :30 on home ground. If theres anything that might detract from the success of the opening of duck season Friday, it has to be the weather.
