Show WEEKLY REFLEX- - -- DAVIS NEWS JOURNAL, FEBRUARY 14, m 1980 14. 1980 NORTH DAVIS LEADER, FEBRUARY Dll Illicit .oil Davis Darts UU By DAVE Plays Ogden For Top Spot KAYSVILLE - With WOODS CROSS only three games left in the league schedule the Woods Cross basketball team has an uphill battle to secure a spot in the stale tournament. they need points from the perimeter. Jeff Emery led the parade last week with a game high 28 points, Jeff is a good shooter and will need a hot night this time around. Pat McGill, Jeff By DAVE WIGHAM - All the marbles are up for grabs this Friday when the Davis team travels up north to battle the red hot Ogden crew. The Darts have lost one league game, to the Tigers, while the number one ranked Tigers haven't lost a region game yet. THREE TEAMS from the league get invited to the annual event and the Cats would need some help to gain one of those spots. Going into this weeks action the Wildcats have six losses, the third place clubs each have three losses. That means plain and simple the Cats would have to win all three remaining games and then hope that West and Highland get knocked off in all their remaining games. So mathematically the Wildcats still have a shot at a state tournament although its a slim shot. Robinson and Glenn Arnell will also need to contribute from the outside. Then the big people inside like Taige Flint and Brent Padilla will have to battle like mad to control the Tigers. OGDEN IS the number one team in defense in the league, Davis is second. Ogden has scored more points than any other team in the league, again the Darts are next. Wherever you look the Tigers are first and the Darts are second. Coach Mike Gardner had this observation about his opponents this week. "Ogden has everything a high school coach could ask for. They have good size, speed and shooters. No doubt they are the best team in the state this season. DAVIS IS really not in trouble of not making the state playoffs. Box Elder is right behind with two losses but then the next club has four, but they want the number one spot. Coach Gardner really hasnt ruled out the possibility of a slowdown type game. Following this WIG HAM FIRST CP for the Cats is a second contest with the South High club who are with the Cats in the cellar of Region Five. The Cats lone win in league action, although they are a lot better than their record would show was against Fridays game the Darts will host Ben Lomond in a Tuesday night battle. . these same Cubs about THE ONLY thing the Tigers dont have is Coach Gardner who has a habit of coming up with various strategies to work out victories. True the Ogden club has a good coach but Mike Gardner is considered one of the best in the business and will be working on a scheme to hand the Tigers a loss. Fslcons-- LmcFs Spire Last week the Tigers showed a little sign of weakness as they had to battle to down a stubborn Logan crew up north. Eventually though LAYTON 1 1 2 WHILE THE Layton crew was winning their rival and neighbor Clearfield was losing a close encounter of the worse kind to Weber. The loss put the Falcons into second place. However, the Clearfield club can improve their own fete as they travel across town to battle these Lancers that seem to play their best when it looks like they have had it. CLEARFIELD DIXON P. REISBECK "For All Your Insurance Needs ixAUTO i'UFE 2D iHOME S3 OWNERS TRUCKS was im- pressive in defeat as they only lost by a single bucket up in Weber County. They trailed most of the game but if the Falcons have a trait this season its one of not giving up as they demonstrated in this loss. The Clearfield team will have their hands full stopping the inside game of the Lancers who feature Mark Lee, Stan Owens and Layne Sackett up front. In the win over Bonneville these three proved their worth to the team. Lee was especially awesome last week as the senior jumping-jacpoured in a game high 29 points, junior Sackett was great in scoring 18 points. k SENIOR GUARD and leader Dave Burke added 15 to go 376-42- 79 197 NORTH MNN - LAYTON along with his great floor generalship and Owens added 14 to the cause.

Here Bountifuls Jeff Bradford (back) and Layne Christiansen (50) battle Viewmonts Norm Parrish (15) and Brad Gibson (43). The Braves avenged an earlier loss t the Vikings and moved into sole poces-ao- n of first place in region. MINE Bv DAVE WIGHAM This week BOUNTIFUL the best wrestlers in the state will converge on the University of U tah for their annual state meet and the Davis County area will be well represented. LAST WEEK the various regions held their region meet and two county schools won the team titles while another two placed second and third. Davis and Layton won their titles and Woods Cross was second with View'-mothird in theirs. It marked the first time ever that the Darts had won the region title and it took wins in the final four matches to pull out the team title in Region Four. In the process the Darts qualified all 12 men for the state meet. THOSE TWELVE and their region finishers are champions Mike Taylor (115), Roger Parsell (129), Robert Johnson (158), Greg Schuller (170). Robert Steed (188), and Jon Warden at heavyweight. Second place honors went to Gard Vanantwerp (135), Andy Thompson (141) and Eric Porter at 148. Other Darts were Chet Cloward a fourth at 101. Scott Meacham a third at 108. and Todd Williams a third at 122. Across town the Layton team was running away with the team title and stamped themselves as a strong contender for the team title in the state meet. The Lancers came up with seven individual winners, two second place finishes and one each at third and fourth. CHAMPIONS were Paul Dupaix (101). Robbie Zamora (105), Kurt Gallegos (119), Dwaine Martinsen ( 138). Brian Brown (145), Steve Rensch (185) and big James Suitt at heavyweight. Lance Olesen and Gary Christiansen were second, Pat Klecker was third and Steve Kittrell was fourth. Viewmont Vikings Need Win Over West Panthers By DAVE WIGHAM BOUNTIFUL-Thisw- 4-- eek the Viewmont High basketball team can more or less determine their own destiny. Following that heartbreaking loss to Bountiful last week the Vikes find themselves in second place, all alone, with a 2 league record. RIGHT BEHIND the ings and breathing down their necks are both West and Highland with 3 records. A loss, coupled with wins by both these clubs, would put the Viktie. That ings into a three-wais something the players and coaches really dont want. The best part is that the Viewmont team has their fate in their own hands as they travel to West High for a return battle of a game that went three overtimes before the Vikings pulled out the win. Add to these facts that the Highland club will be at Bountiful the same night. Vik- - scoring column but the play of Mark Vigil and John Sill certainly didnt go unnoticed. AS FOR the Falcons they look to guard Brook Hicks, forward Jeff Gorringe and center Scott Wallace for points. In the Weber loss it was Hicks for 15, Wallace for 14 and Gorringe another 12. Troy Nye is another mainstay on this club and he scored 10. Fred Cook, Danny Perkins and Cory Schofield also played big roles for the squad. It was over a month ago that the Lancers crept over to the Falcon gym and pulled out the win. Clearfield would like nothing better than to return the favor, while the Layton five would like the sweep. THE LANCERS have proven themselves near un- beatable on their home floor but as many of us that follow high school sports can attest in the case of rivalries the home floor doesnt seem to mean a thing. y AFTER THAT loss on the Viewmont floor the West coaches promised folks that things would be different when the two met on the Panther floor. One thing that will be different will be that big sophomore John White will be available for action. He missed the first game with an ankle injury. EVEN WITH the big man the Vikes will still look to Norm Parrish, Paul Hansen. Brad Gibson, Rich Downs. Mike Dolderand Kyle Morrell for the big game. Hansen led the scoring parade last week with 19 while junior Parrish added 16. The Vikes almost saw the game get out of hand in the first period as they were cold but once they wanned up from the outside things got interesting. West is a lot smaller than the Vikings but the Panthers are a quick and scrappy club. One would think with the lack of height the West team has they would play a zone defense but Coach Clark Godfrey has them playing as tough man to man defense as there is around. To prove the point the Panthers haven't allowed a team to score more than 48 points in a regular game in league action. IN THE first outing the Panthers were behind by ten with a little more than six minutes to go then senior Carey Lloyd found the range from the outside and Reggie Wilson went to work inside and from the foul line. Chris Nemelka kept the Panthers in the game with his great shooting. Clearfield High saw four of their w restlers place in the lop four spots in region. Blake McMillian lost a one point match to place second at 145. Steve Ulibarri was second at 101 while Manuel Perez was third and Alden Brunson was fourth. WOODS CROSS finished second in the team race and qualified nine w restlers for the state meet. Viewmont was third and placed seven in the tournament while the Braves have four men in the state event. Top spots for the Cats were champions Mark Jacobs at 115, undefeated Jeff Lewis at 170 and unbeaten Jason Whitney at 180. Heavyweight Mark Tate was second, he defaulted in the final due to an injury. Curtis Knight was second as was JefTOIsen. Todd Gale was third as w as C al Robbins w hile Mike Jordan was fourth. was led by VIEWMONT their individual champion James Larkin in the 141 pound class. Kevin Ball. Ken Carling, Todd Larkin and Craig Cook were all second with Chris Hansen and Kevin Freestone fourth. Bountiful was headed up by their champion Chris Merrill at 129. the other Braves involved in the state meet w ill be Dwight Griffin, second at 108. Dave Merrill a fourth at 115 and Russ Hammer a fourth at 148. plus there are many individuals from the county schools for individual honors. West stayed in the hunt for a state berth last week w ith a ten point win over South, one of the biggest point spreads of the year as the Panthers have been involved in close games all along. They are a well balanced club, Wilson had 15, Walker 12, Lloyd and Jett 10 apiece and Nemelka had 8. ON THE agenda for the evening w ill be approval by the membership of the 1979 financial statement, plans for the observance of National Wildlife Week, a report to the membership on income from activities at the cutter races at Lagoon and planning for delegate attendance at the Utah Wildlife and Outdoor Recreation annual convention. Bruce Rannon. president of Wasatch Bass Club, w ill be the guest speaker and his presentation will include a film and information on habitat improvement at Willard Bay. THE STATE executive vice president of Utah Wildlife and Outdoor Recreation Federas tion will be available for ques-tion- and comments on "Whats Happening to our Wildlife'. The public is invited and there is no admission charge. Ml CH IS the same with the Wildcats who feature M.uk' Earnshaw in middle, who also' tends to draw a lot of attention' from the officials and gets into-- ' foul trouble. Mark is one of the best despite giving away With Mark inside the Cats aie tough. Jenin Hallow and Reed Call give the Cats a pair of battling forwards who' refuse to give up. Hallows has been shooting well and Call has been good on the boards and defense. Outside the Cats look to Roger Lowe who is their downtown man. His range is from another fine outside shooter is Wes Johnson who is ready for action. W OODS ( ROSS has a lot of pride on this club and the play ers haven't given up the ship yet. Although the game is at South the Cats will be favored but it won't be an easy task winning at Cubville.

BOYS, GRADES LAYTON, W'oods Cross and Davis all have good shots at the team titles in their respective state meets this week IN HIS absence though junior guard Doug longe over the leadership role. A quarterback in football this' youngster knows how to be a leader and hes the one the' Cubs look to. He has been the leading scoter and hallhandler for the past few games. Lad week he put in only 8 points but prior to that game he was near 20 per game. Another play ei that has realbeen ly come on of late ha their big center Dave Alley At 6'8 he presents the smaller Cats with problems in the middle. Some coaches around the region point to Dave as one of the premiere big men around. He has a good shooting touch' but tends to get into foul troll-- ' ble.

County Wildlife Federation going he told them in that drawl that made the Duke a legend. IT PROBABLY never happened but a saying never fit a club like this old cliche does the Lancer basketball club. These are the guys that struggled through preseason, then a tealjg&j.og fcy.ery- one in sight in league action, JheB they propped jt couple of region games in one week. Maybe time to fold for some athletes but not these Lancers. They took a red hot Laker club and turned them inside out and came up with an 9 victory. The win enabled the Layton five to stay in a tie with Weber in the tough region race. at - KAYSVILLE gets tough, the tough get THAT SETS up the rematch, although the first meeting wasnt really much of a contest, between these two basketball powers. Game is at Ogden when the Tigers are even better. Davis had trouble in controlling the inside game of the Tigers ;iti their first meeting the Dockery brothers, Olies and Gregg, did just about wbat, THEY ARENT the only stars on this talented ball team though as Jim Breech and Robbie Ayers are both very good players. Last Friday Beech scored as did the physical Ayers.
