Show MAY 18, 1983 Vikes Dominate Dart Men Snare Second. By DAVE WIGHAM Clipper Sports VIEWMONT - The Viking boys placed in the $200 meters on Thursday and they never looked back on Friday as they completely ran away from the rest of the field in winning the Region Four track title last week. "HEN ALL was said and done in the two day meet the Vikes had won nine of the 17 events to pile up 181 team points. Davis finished strong in second place with 129 followed by East, Woods Cross, Highland and then Bountiful. Viewmont also displayed some strong depth in the program as they placed in the top six in all but two events, the 400 meter dash and the medley relay. Truth is the medley bunch won the race but were disqualified when the inspector ruled that a Viking runner had stepped in front of a Woods Cross runner and failed to give him a full stride. So in reality the only event the Vikes didnt place was the 400 meter dash. -- from the start as both runners stayed on each others heels throughout. Down the stretch it was Espinoza that found that little something extra to pull out the win. Brian Fuller, running only his second 800 of the year, finished strong in the first heat but his time was good enough to place him third overall. Brian Hughley of Bountiful was great finishing fourth with Con Fox of Viewmont fifth and Greg Brown of the Braves sixth. Brad Lynn of Woods Cross in fifth and Kelly Ryujin of Davis in sixth. This was a big win for the Vikes since Mathews had to finish in the top three to get to state this week. 1600 METERS Brian Fuller of Viewmont staged a two man fight with junior Mike Allen of the Vikes in this event with Del Espinosa of Davis giving chase in third place. Fuller has come on strong lately after recuperating from a foot injury to threat in the give the Vikes a real one-tw- o distance races. Troy Johnson of Davis was fourth followed by Dan Drumiller of Bountiful and Reese Kidman of the Viewmont squad. 400 METER RELAY The Viking baseball unit, three of the four runners also play baseball for the Vikes, easily won this event. Steve Caputo, Kurt Mathews, Doug Scovil and Jon Warner captured top honors in this event, an event the Vikes look strong to win in the state meet, with Highland second followed by Davis, Bountiful and Woods Cross. East was actually second but was disqualified. BESIDES THE nine titles won by the individual awards were won by Davis, five of them, East claimed a pair and Woods Cross was the winner in the medley relay. Here is a look at all the events. Keep in mind the top are invited to state. 110 HURDLES Dave Chowen of Viewmont continued his winning ways taking this event but the story was junior Troy Hank of the Vikings coming on strong to nip Mitch Lord of Woods Cross for second place. All three now head into the state meet. Dave Kinard of Davis was the other local athlete to place as he was sixth in the event.

Brett Campbell of the Vikes was sixth. This is the race that Viking coach Lynn DuBois was hoping to qualify Kurt Mathews in for the state meet but an injury prevented him from running. 400 METER DASH Brian Bacon of Davis took time out from his awesome display at the state soccer tournament to win this race with a fine time of 51.25. Brian led from start to finish in this event with teammate Todd Anderson in second followed by Brad Lynn of Woods Cross, Jeff Ohlwiler of the Darts and Ned Penley of Woods Cross. 3200 METER This is the event that got the Vikes off and running in this meet as Brian Fuller of the Vikes became a double winner in the long distance races. Brian won the state individual title in cross country and he has come on strong lately. In this event he beat Taylor of East by five seconds with Mike Allen of the Vikes in third and Reese Kidman of Viewmont in fourth. Although he finished fourth Kidman still ran fast enough to qualify for state. Dan Drumiller of Bountiful was fifth with Troy Johnson of Davis in sixth. 300 METER HURDLES Senior Dave Chowen of Viewmont finished strong to take first place and become a double winner when he edged out Mitch Lord of the Wildcats. Lord led most of the race but it was the strong kick at the finish that enabled Chowen to win. Jeff Meservy of the Vikes was fifth. MILE RELAY Davis put together a strong relay team in this event and came away winners as they edged out Viewmont for the title. Woods Cross was third with Highland fourth and East fifth. 800 METERS Del Espinosa timed his kick just right as he edged out Ken Jones, Woods Cross in this two lap event. This race was a two man affair DISCUS Woodhead of East surprised everyone, cluding his own coach, by winning this event with a fine throw of 147'2. Thompson of Davis was second followed by Dave Titensor of Viewmont, Lance Eden and Ken Fincher both of Woods Cross and Ditty of Viewmont. in- LONG JUMP Viewmont was supposed to win this event and they did but it was a surprise that the winner was George Eames of the Vikes with a leap of 20 10. George has been struggling lately but he got off the big jump when he needed it. Kevin Smith of Viewmont was second followed by Mike Hayward of Davis, Vealy of East, R.J.

I never thought Id hit lik that, said Moon about the seasons hitting. Moon netted his only two home runs of the season this past year, one of which beat Clearfield Coach Hawkins never gets down on ya, but always has you achieving the mo?t you can, said Moon. 0. WHAT DID Hawkins have to say about it all. Theres not a lot of talent here, but everyone of these kids worked their butts off. You could start with Kennedy at third base. The kid would do anything I asked of him. Jeff Moon hardly ever hit the ball as a junior, but as a senior really came through for us. I guess the kids just know I have the confidence in them. Friedli Captures N.D. Chamber Run from the Layton, Kaysville and Clearfield chambers of commerce. Doug Friedli, a former star miler for Weber State College, captured his second consecutive title in the 10,000 Meter Race sponsored by the North Davis Chamber of Commerce Association. ' BRIAN Cooper chaired the event, but cre- dited the help of local civic, education and law enforcement agencies in managing the race. Traffic and runner protection was provided by the Utah Highway Patrol, Davis County Sheriffs Department, and police agencies from Syracuse, Layton, Clearfield and Kaysville along with the county paramedic officers. Davis High coach James Dickson arranged for area coaches to officiate with University of Utah track mentor Mike Jones providing the universitys timing apparatus. FRIEDLI RAN the course through Clearfield, Layton and Kaysville in 30 minutes and 40 seconds, bettering last years time by almost four minutes, in capturing the title and the $50 savings bond. Friedli called the event the race Ive ever run in and said that other participants remarked on the protection provided the runners by local police agencies. Sixty of the 75 participants finished the grueling 10,000 meter (6.2 mile) race with Ogdens Lona Chambers the top woman finisher with a time. First, second and third place finishers in all divisions received gift certificates donated by merchants best-organiz- BRAD MERRILL I told was going to be a relief pitcher and a first baseman and never once did he question me. Talbot only ended up winning two games last year, but this year he Kenny Heath always got better and goes better. The confidence factor had the kids believing in themselves. Hawkins, as headed with his troops into the region schedule, thought realistically about first, second or third place. I knew Id be in a battle with Roy, Clearfield and Weber for second or third. Realistically I didnt give up a chance for first place. But the kids came out battling and we did it, said Hawkins. 6-- 2. ITS !!!

This is unfortunate. Also unnecessary. Because for about the same money, they could have an extraordinary car: the Saab 900. The Saab 900 has everything the name would suggest and the price wouldnt, like jetronic fuel injection, a zero pollen air filter, disc brakes, steering. As for front-whedrive, we consider that so basic, we dont even bother to put it on the sticker. Which brings up something else: While you could pay extra to get some of Saabs features on another car, youd still have another car. Or maybe Road & Track said it better.
