Show 5 Thursday, October THE GREEN SHEET 15, 1987 Jordan Struggles Past Murray In Key Contest even the most ardent Murray boosters. On fourth down after failing to gain against the hard fighting Spartan defense, Myrick kicked another field goal from the 14 and the Diggers seemed to be safe with a 20-lead. Yet another long kickoff return by Bolingbroke gave Murray good field position and the Spartans marched to the seven but could not get into the end zone on four plays as the quarter ended. Murrays defense, which had been riddled with injuries in the last game and was using some third team players, then held Jordan again deep in its own territory and Jordan was forced to kick with Murray taking over on the Jordan 43. Six plays later. Wyatt hit Chris Andregg with a touchdown pass and even though the two point conversion try missed, the Spartans were only MURRAY, The Jordan juggernaut rolled to its sixth victory in seven attempts here Friday night, but it was not as easy win as most of their victories, as Murrays Spartans put up a game fight before falling Jordan, which now leads Region Six with four wins and no losses, will face another tough task when they host Judge Memorial today (Thursday) at 4 p.m. on the Beetdigger field. Murray will face another tough foe today as they play at West in a 4 oclock game. Jordan took the opening kick off in Friday nights game and promptly marched down the field with a long pass play from Scott Deuel to Rusty Eyre giving the 'Diggers a first and ten at the Murray four. But Murray held and a penalty moved the Jordan team back to the 15 from where Kurt Myrick kicked a field 27-2- 7 goal. The Diggers then kicked off and Kevin Bolingbroke returned to the 40 from where Shay Wyatt hit Todd down the game to advance its season record to but wasn t easy as the final margin indicates. SANDWICHED . . . Murray running back Kevin Bollingbroke (20) is caught by two Jordan tacklers in Region Six night action at Murray. Jordan won it 27-2- 20-1- Jordan scored on the next series when, on the eighth play, Scott Deuel, who Murray, Coach Wade Meier said was a great option quarterback," kept on the option and went 40 yards to seemingly put the game out of reach with Myricks kick making it Bolingbroke then took the kick on his own five and returned to the Murray 41 from where Murray was forced to kick. On the runback Murray recovered the ball on a fumble and eight plays later Tavaki Fakahufua bulled in from the one and Hansen kicked the extra point to make the score During the drive a key catch of a pass by Aaron Swalberg on a helped set up the touchdown. Murray tried an on side kick but it failed and with only seconds left Jordan held on to the ball. Coach Wade Meier stated that "overall the kids gave a great effort as both offensive and defensive lines did well, especially with so many untested kids filling in. He pointed out that Bolingbroke had kick off returns of 31. 25. 61. 38, and 36 yards for a total of 191 yards and that Shay Wyatt had a fine day passing as he hit on 20x35 for two touchdowns and a total of 240 yards gained. Todd Tuttle had five receptions for 120 yards. Meier felt that the defensive line efforts of Fakahafua, James Sundin. E. J. Barlocker, Todd Bean, Peter Niebert. Mike Shaw, Guy Anderson, and Brandon Lundeen were outstanding. Jordan Coach Russ Thompson was high in praise for his team as they Tuttle for a pass play which covered sixty yards and Kevin Hansens kick gave the home team the edge With 7:32 left in the quarter Murray recovered a Jordan fumble at the Jordan 25 and promptly marched to the one. Murray tried a sweep on fourth down and lost on the gamble as the runner was thrown back to the nine-yarline with Jordan taking over. Both teams lost important players during this series as Jordan running back Jeff Grant and Murray defensive line backer Mark Johnson were hurt on the same play and had to leave the game. Eric Turnbow, who has been outstanding on defense for Jordan all year long, was rushed into offensive duty, replacing Grant, and on the second play he raced up the middle for a touchdown ramble and Myrick kicked the extra point to make it 10-Kevin Bolingbroke then took the kick off and ran it back 61 yards. But an interception at the 34 killed the Murray opportunity and the half ended. Murray kicked off to Jordan and on the fourth play. Jason Saville, who had been pressed into service for an injured Mike Thorne, who was taken out of the game with an injury in the first quarter, broke a 48 yard run to put the visitors up by 17-Murray, again aided by a big kick off return by Bolingbroke, then marched to the Jordan 28 where an interception by Scott Christensen and his ensuing run to the Murray 25 took REEK SKIES?
