Basically the advantage goes to ihe runnei who works the hardest." said Buhrley. Dairen and Bill both enjoy a pretty good fi icndship so their rivutary has no ill feelings m it. Cov shouldnt be left out eilher. there." "IDEALLY THEY would all like to be the top runner but they have a good relationship at the same time." said the new coach. Most of the course in Region One run no longer than twoand a half miles w ith Clearfield having the longer one at 5000 meters t.VI BUHRLEY NEVER ran endurance races during his high school days at Weber High, so his chance to coach Clearfields team might in some way make up for what he lost. Roger has been running for five or six years and mainly started it to build up his legs and ankles for handball and basketball. "Since that time. 1v e given up those two sports because I find running more satisfying," reported Buhrley. Buhrley expects his team to give a pretty good push for the 1982 region championship which is pretty safe to assume with talk that perennial power Bonneville is down this year. The Lakers have clearly dominated cross country in Region One in recent y ears. miles). RICKY SMITH who is primarily a sprinter in track has filled in brilliantly so far. As the No. 4 man he claims the endurance work he has obtained in cross country has aided his sprint work 100 percent. Duane Rock has finished right behind Smith or tried him in recent races. As far as supporting Falcon summer cross country workouts. Rock was the most solid. When his speed comes hell definitely fit into Clearfields plans. NUMERO UNO among Clearfield endurance aces is senior Bill Wilcox who his coach says will be pretty tough to beat before the end of the year. "I think Bill is a possible region champion but it wont come without a bunch of hard work." said Buhrley. Wilcox is one of the and Buhrley hopes his teams leadership abilities will continue to shine through too. Junior Glen Coy stayed in pretty good shape through the summer by running in various distance races. Its paid off for him too because hes presently ranked No. 2 with the Falcons. ROUNDING OUT the rest of thc'team finds Kelly Briggs there after deciding to give up sophomore football. Rondale Anderson also fills a varsity position. Anderson is an Indian placement student from Shiprock. New Mexico. He hasnt done a great deal of competitive running, but he has said helped us out a great deal so far. Buhrley. SOPHOMORE Todd Davis could also challenge for a varsity spot later on. Todd Denman is out with a stress fracture for three weeks. Before his departure he w as at least the No. 4 man for Clearfield. RIGHT BEHIND Coy is last springs Falcon long distance track and field ace. Darren Lewis. Lewis too has the potential of being a region champion, if not one of the top three runners in region. As soon as he gets into shape hell be right there, said Roger. His slow start will soon be history." Lewis and Wilcox staged a pretty good bat tf? fli. fT7K, SKY VIEW IS expected to have the edge if anybody does in Region One, but basically Roger expects it to be a wide open race all the way. BENNETTS t "'' ' k j &J Jerry Cooper, (35), was part of Laytons swarming defense. Keith Duncan Journal Sports LAYTON - Only if. two words that best describe THESE ITS fortunes last Friday after- football Laytons noon in Smithfield where the Lancers practic- ally gave Sky View their fourth consecutive victory of 82. If only the Lancers hadnt fumbled at such crucial moments in the first quarter it may have given the tired defense just a little more to fight later on. If only the Lancers hadnt committed many penalties they may have avoided the 20-- 0 setback and entered the game against Roy this Friday night a little more confident. YES, IT WASNT one of Laytons most memorable football games but at least for minutes Layton convinced them- twenty-fou- r selves and those who saw the game that they could play with the best. A coach from Roy who scouted the game commented at halftime, Whoever picked Sky View to win Region One forgot to pick Layton too The Bobcats scored when it counted but overall didnt impress the scouts that much. It was clearly Laytons inability to get the ball across the goal line that kept Sky Views re- - DAVIS ty SMITH ADDED another comment, The coaches have been spending a lot of time with us. I dont think we could have been anymore ready for Fridays game. Secrist, the quarterback, was just happy to run the ball. I think it wore em down in the end, said Rick. We also didnt have to worry about the rush as much. y,4fM4& (; fin tc 'n&fArdx tuM&tt. TH ;,r' -- ? k&4k StA&toS 'i , fjb in fense spent more and more time on the field and naturally ran out of juice. Sky View went more and more to the pass, especially through the last two periods. The quick pass to the split end in the flat became more and more difficult to contain which helped to produce Sky Views final two touchdowns, TWICE IN the first quarter Layton had things in full gear only to fumble and have their drive grind to a stop. Later in the game it was costly penalties that broke their back, But the defense constantly rose to the occa-s- o sion. If it wasnt Mike Trujillo protecting on a pass play, then it was Connelly and Facer chewing up Sky Views quarterback Tony Michekson. JACK ROBINSON, the head coach of the Bobcats didnt expect a scoreless first half and verbally expressed it, They (Layton) were always doing something to deny us. I think we were fortunate later on that their defense just wore down. Junior Tom Kidd was capable of chewing up yardage for Layton, especially in the first half, His running partner Matt Austad also had his moments, but it was fumbles and c.ritical penal- ties that hurt their carries overall.

But they are making up for it with their attitude and hustle. One thing is for sure, that they are keeping the pride and tradition that has been here for up 50 or 60 years. SAWLEY summed it up by saying, I dont know what happened to Vie wmont or why, but I know Mark (Pierce) is the kinda of guy that will have them back in the race. Just a matter of time before they put it together. As far as beating a close friend like Mark, you just dont say much after a game like that. Tomorrow weH talk and hash it over a bit. 4fr,rjV,wittiA, - 5' Laytons Lynn Bell, (61), does the latest move pass defense. cord unblemished again. THE IMPORTANT question around the Lancers football camp is whether they can Pck up the pieces and beat Roy who was a decisive winner last week against Bonneville, I hurt us to have failed to score when we could have, said senior safety Kenny Heath, But I still believe this team can put it ail together before its through. HEATH WENT on, Our defense was dang tough in the first half and Sky View knew it. We successfully held them on four plays within our 15 yard line, preventing them from scoring, The whole first half we were denying them, Once we get the ball across the goal line and get some points on the board, itll give us confidence Im sure. IT APPEARED nearly every defensive play- er had at least one brilliant effort in the first half and some of the second half. Senior defensive tackle John Connelly was overly impressive with several tackles and a couple quarterback sacks. Along with Connelly it was Dave Facer an Chris Shoop up front who were again and a8ain denying the Bobcats anything on the . ground. ' But as the game progressed, the Layton de- - continued OF THE SHUTOUT, Sawley remarked that his defense is playing superb right now. He was especially pleased with the defensive line. Theyre quick and are getting across better than what I thought. When your linemen are getting the tackles before linebackers, its just a bonus, said Sawley. Jeff Sampson, a junior defensive lineman, was one who took out some frustrations on the Vikings. Maybe the thing that bugs me the most is when guys portray an image of something they arent. The Vikings dont have a on their team and bunch of. a good shot at I wanted I neither do we. admit them and I got it, said Sampson. MARK PIERCE said simply that Sampson manhandled us. Pierce, who has yet to beat Davis in his four years as a head coach, was visibly upset after the game. Their kids executed the best theyve done all year, he said. Sampson publicly stated hed like to make as a junior. Eventually or hed like to get a scholarship in football. The best thing for me would be to play hard as I can this year, win as a team and be ready mentally for next year, said Sampson.
