Show Sun Chronicle thyriday, May 27, 1 976 Page (5 by Bliss Fulmer Teams from Salt Lake City, Layton, Ogden, Wahlquist area and Roy contended for the Intermountain Association Junior Olympic basketball title and the Roy team took all the marbles. Next stop is Las Vegas, Nev. for the National Junior Olympics on June 16, 17, 18 and 19. Team sponsor is Arbys Roast Beef Sandwiches of Ogden and the boys call themselves the Arby Bucks. The team was organized from Roy Junior High School, but they had a little outside help, thanks to Harry Hall, n sports enthusiast of Roy. Harry recruited three ball players from Ogden, Plain City and Washington Terrace to team up with seven players from Roy Junior High. He even recruited the coach from T.H. Bell Jr. High of Washington Terrace to run the team. Ken Cottle and his ten stalwarts had big wins over Layton, Cottonwood of Salt Lake City, Ogden and Layton (again) in the double loss elimination tourney. Roy garnered a win against a tough Cottonwood team from Salt Lake City that had players from the high school areas of Cottonwood, Granger, Granite, Skyline, Hillcrest, Murray and Brighton. You might say that Roy Junior High took on Salt Lake Citys best and won. Roys toughest opponent was Central Layton Jr. High, whose star player came from Woods Cross. Layton led 7 in the first quarter 7 but Roy came back to lead at halftime. The score through the third quarter, but Roy had a slim 4 lead as the quarter ended. The final quarter was more of the same. Roy led by one point with four minutes to go, then Fred Fernandes took charge. He made a clutch shot, then stole the ball to set up a score by Montgomery Suddenly Roy was ahead by five, Layton made a comeback behind the torrid outside shooting of Femeau and the base line play of McCleary and closed the gap to one Three crucial blocked shots by Sindle, Nickerson and Scholtec kept Layton from taking full command. With 47 seconds to play, Roy called time out and went into a controlled game. They worked the clock down to 18 seconds before Layton fouled Montgomery. The cool gunner from Plain City hit one of two shots and Roy led Layton missed an outside jumper and Fernandes got the long rebound and was fouled. He calmly hit both ends of the one and one and put the game out of reach. Final score was Roy High Coach Ted Smith sat in the stands with mixed emotions. Drooling over the prospects that will be his sophomores next year, but sweating a little as he watched stars who will be playing for Bonneville, Weber, Ogden, not to Layton and Woods Cross mention the Salt Lake schools. Those kids are getting bigger and better every year, he whispered. Where will it all end? Coach Ken Cottle was recruited for the Junior Olympics team from T.H.

IT his team name for himself. In 1973-7beat Roy for the Region championship, with a 10-- record, but Roy Jr. High has beaten him for the last two years and both years. his season records were Cottle is a brilliant young coach. His cool head and team discipline played a major role in bringing the Junior Olympics Championship to Roy. s An introduction to the young Jon Nickerson is another master ball handler and can shoot the eye out of a needle. He participated in four sports at Roy Jr. High School and was quarterback on the undefeated football team last fall. This son of Mr. and Mrs. Orlando Nickerson has a bright future in athletics. Doug Koskelly is seventh man on a team that boasts six regulars. He is used effectively to rest the starters and keep the bail game moving. His greatest strength lies in his rebounding ability. Bench strength has made this ball team and Doug is always ready. He has run the 880 yard dash in track in 2.10. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. Frank Roskelly. Jeff Scholtec is the old man of the team because he is a grade ahead of everybody else. He earned a double promotion in grade school and is a sophomore at Roy High. He is tallest man on the team at 65. Where does he get his height? Well, his father is 64 and his mother 56 but her grandfather was a 6U giant so there! Jeff played 4 2 8-- 4 alphabetical order. Scott Bramwell of Washington Terrace is the son of Art and Dorothy in Bramwell. Scott played ball at T.H. Bell Jr. High where he averaged 21 points per game. He is tough on the boards and unstoppable inside. Bonneville High School will profit from Scott Bramwell. Mario Chavez, son of Mr. and Mrs. Danny Chavez is a team spark plug. When he enters the game in his role as a sub, he sparks up the whole team. Mario learned his basketball under his father who coached little league for 10 years. Fred Fernandes quarterback the Bucks team. He is a deadly shot from anywhere on the court. He handles the ball with great authority and makes things happen. Fred is lightning quick and makes several steals in every game. He is an all around great athlete. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. Frank Fernandes. Wayne Hall is the long bomb artist, when they can get him to cast off. He would rather pass off to a teammate. In the tournament he made 8 of 9 shots from outside. They often bring Wayne off the bench to loosen things up inside and keep the defense honest. Waynes parents are Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hall. Mark Montgomery will attend Weber High next year from his home in Plain City. At Walquist Jr. High, Mark averaged 20 points per game last season. He is tough on the boards on both ends of the court and knows how to put that ball through the hoop. He was the tournaments leading scorer with 1 1 W01 high school basketball this year and is not eligible to play on an organized team when school is out, this Friday. They'll miss this lad. Mark Sindle is at Roy because his parents Master Sargent and Mrs. Bobby Sindle are stationed at Hill AFB. ball player. Mark is another He played center on the Roy Jr. High basketball team andnvas a high jumper on the track team. He blocks shots like a Wilt Chamberlain and shoots like a Dave Cowans. Lets hope the Sindles can stay at Hill for at least three more years. Stanley Woody is a product of Ogden with a bushel of future potential. Stan pulled a ham string muscle and couldn't play at full speed. But even at half speed he is a real asset to the team. He averaged 25 points per game last season at Mt. Ogden Jr. High. He should be healthy for the June 16 showdown in Las Vegas, so look out. Stan's parents are Mr. and Mrs. James Woody of Ogden. . 16.25 per game.

Heres a look at some of the most popular fishing spots ill the of the river does not receive planted fish. This section of stream will yield some nice catches, but fishing probably wont be as fast as in the areas on down the canyon where planted rainbow will be caught. Access along the entire lower Provo River is excellent with good . camping areas available. Soldier Creek Reservoir - This new reservoir, built as part of the Central Utah Project, is located in Eastern Wasatch County downstream from Strawberry Reservoir. It was heavily planted with small rainbow trout two years ago and should provide excellent fishing cn the opener. The rain'bew will generally run in the 10 to 16 inch category. No camping facilities are available; and with late storms, the limited shoreline camping spots may be muddy in many areas. Remember, the Strawberry River below the dam is not open until July 15 this ! . , state: Thursday, May 27 schedule: 6 p.m., 16th No. 2, vs. 12th. 7 p.m., 15th vs. 6th. 8 p.m., 9th vs. 16th. 9 p.m., Lakeview vs. 115h. The Northern Region expects a good opening, or better, in most waters. Snow pack is above normal but well below last years record high. We, therefore, have good news for high lake fishermen, at least in some areas. Listed below are regional highlights. East Canyon Reservoir - We expect a good opener rainbow. A few larger fish are for pan-siz- e to show in the creel. expected Echo Reservoir - If the reservoir completes d rainbow is filling, then a good opener for expected. d pound Rockport Reservoir - Good for rainbow. Probably a little faster fishing than last year, especially if reservoir fills by opener. Weber River - Probably will not be stocked for opener except for upper reaches below Holiday Park. Below Rockport, river conditions will depend whether or not the reservoir is spilling. Through Morgan County, the river is high and silty but not as bad as last year. Mantua Reservoir - Slow for small bass. Willard Bay - Good for crappie at north marina; slow for walleye. Causey Reservoir - Good to excellent. Bait fishing will be a good bet. No boat launching facilities. Ogden River, (Below Dam) - Probably will be stocked. Ogden River, South Fork - Very little high water. Should be good; has been stocked. Pineview Reservoir - Poor; popgear will take a fish. All ramps open; no charge at few pound-siz- e port ramp but a $2 fee at Cemetery Point. Gas and food available. No water skiing. Once again, the best fishing waters in the Central Region will generally be the large lakes and reservoirs. But unlike the 1975 season opener, many of our streams will be clear and thus planted for the big weekend. Best bets, by county, should be: Deer Creek Reservoir: Fishermen should find good fishing from the shore and especially from boats on this popular reservoir. Rainbow trout up to 16 inches will dominate the cree; but brown and lake trout, largemouth bass and yellow perch will also be taken. Several large trout in the trophy class are taken each year (19 pound rainbow last opening day). The water in the reservoir should be just right for the opener. Wallsburg and Rainbow Bays will be the best shore fishing areas. Shoreline access is good but limited. Nine-Mil- e Reservoir - Located just south of Sterling on Highway 89, we are predicting this water will be a good to excellent bet for the opening, especially from boats. Stocked last fall with advanced fingerlings, rainbow up to several pounds will be taken with Vi to pound fish the rule. Camping areas are sparse, and limited boat launching facilities are available.

Debris is floating in this swollen stretch of the river; and since water conditions will probably get worse before getting better, it might be best to pass this section up on the opening. On the other hand, the river below Deer Creek Reservoir should provide good catches of both brown and rainbow. Although high, the water will be fishable. Similar to last year, the lower Provo from the dam downstream to Vivian Park is classified as a wild trout stream where only naturally reproduced fish from the Strawberry Reservoir - Unlike a year ago, it has been a relatively mild winter in Strawberry Valley this past year. The ice has gone from the lake and only a few snowdrifts will be left come May 29. Once again a large opening weekend crowd is expected with camping areas limited to certain shoreline stretches. Access fees by the Strawberry Water Users Association have increased this season, so have your pocketbook handy. Fishing will be good to excellent with 10 to 14 inch rainbows dominating the creel. Larger rainbow and cutthroat to 5 pounds should be taken. New this year on Strawberry is an eight fish limit instead of six. Once again all tributaries of the reservoir do not open to fishing until July 1. Utah Lake - Most people pass up this popular year-roun- d fishing water on the opening weekend of But for those who the general season. white bass, want to catch fish (catfish, largemouth bass and walleye) and have lots of room to themselves, this may be the water they are looking for. Most popular areas are at Lincoln Beach, Provo Boat Harbor, Orem pier, Saratoga and the Knolls. Camping areas, both developed and undeveloped, are available. Anglers fishing in the Southern Region can expect a good opening this year on many of the old favorites (Panguitch Lake, Otter Creek Reservoir and Fish Lake). High concentration of algae may hamer the success on Minersville Reservoir this year, although many holdovers from previous years will still be available for the creek. Most of the streams in the Region will be stocked prior to the opening which is a change from previous years when high runoff prevented stocking for the opening weekend. Fish Lake - Access, camping and resort accommodations are excellent at Fish Lake. Fishing should be good for cutthroat 2 inches long. A few large browns and lake trout are usually caught on the opener. The ice is presently breaking and will be gone by the opening. A large crowd is expected on this popular water the opening weekend. Lake Powell - A water often overlooked for the opening is Lake Powell. Fishing for crappie should be at its best for the opening weekend and Memorial Day will afford the angler an extra day to fish and explore. Minersville Reservoir - Good fishing should be in - store for the fisherman who chooses Minersville V Reservoir for the opener this year. Rainbow trout . planted last year should average over one pound, fish averaging two and one-ha. with pounds. Some fish may reach five or six pounds, i Excellent camping facilities are offered at the lake and there is a paved boat launching area for the boater. Overall, the opening should be good, especially - for those waters now open or accessible. Lakes at higher elevations on the Manti and the LaSal . lf d , , 'MC. filli d Mountains are still and doubtful if free before the opening. Also, roads to these lakes are very muddy and drifted in by snow in many areas. Scofield and Joes Valley Reservoirs, the regions two largest waters should have the bulk of the fishing pressure and crowds are expected to be large. LaSal Mountain Lakes Dons and Hidden Lakes e and access is good with dry roads. are Camping facilities at both lakes are limited. rainbow trout will be planted for the opening. Fishing success should be good with moderate pressure expected. Two other lakes, Dark Canyon and Oowah will be stocked also, if good weather prevails until opening. Camping at Dark Canyon Lake is limited, but good facilities are provided at Oowah. Blue, Medicine and Beaver Lakes are presently inaccessible and should remain so till mid-JunMill Creek is expected to be high and muddy for May 29 opening and will not be stocked. of rainbow and natural german Some carry-ove- r brown should be caught, though. e Scofield Reservoir - Lake is now and is to to fill about maximum expected capacity. As usual, a heavy turnout of anglers is expected. Fishing should be good for rainbow trout in the 10 to 12 inch range. Lake has had a record or shoreline littering in the past and undoubtedly will persist. However, fishermen are cautioned to pick up their garbage and also about the vandalism of fences and fence posts which occurred last year. The Northeastern Region can expect less fishermen this year, as a result of the decline in fisherman success at many of the more important fishing waters last year. Most of the streams are expected to be high and roily for the opener; therefore, most fishing will be limited to lakes and controlled streams below impoundments. Flaming Gorge Reservoir - This is a year-rounwater which has produced excellent fishing in the past. However, so far this spring, fishing has been slow for rainbow, but fair for trophy brown and lake trout for the experienced and patient fisherman. We expect a large crowd for the Memorial Day weekend fishing opener, but so far, fishing pressure has been lighter than usual. More rainbow have been showing up in the creel for the shore fishermen and the boaters are having more success with the brown and lake trout. Green River - This is one of the prettiest streams in the state and will be stocked for the opener. A large crowd is expected but many people will be on the river simply to enjoy the beauty and relaxation of a float trip. The trail from the dam to Little Hole offers the enthusiastic sportsman a fine experience. The limit is 8 trout and lifejackets must be worn while floating the river. An assortment of tackle and bait is used with good results. Starvation Reservoir - Improved roads, good boat ramps and improved camping areas await the angler. There are presently many camping facilities under construction; therefore, one should contact local sources just prior to the opener for updated information on the construction. Fishing for rainbow trout is expected to be poor due to the enlarged rough fish population; however, many large brown trout await the experienced angler. Steinaker Reservoir - This reservoir, north of Vernal, should provide good fishing for rainbow and largemouth bass. The bass are the result of a recent unauthorized plant. Some bass are going two pounds and better. This is an excellent opportunity for a family fishing outing. The State Park provides adequate facilities.
