Show U H-- 6 II 1 c 1-- Thun-derbir- The Cowboys accepted the opening kickoff and gained two first downs on the strength of running by Rick Lamb and Darren Gifford and a Glover to Orton pass. When Beaver stiffened, the Pokes punted, but Beaver could not move and Scott George gave the ball back at the Kanab 19 via his first punt. Then began the first Cowboy drive for a score. On the strength of a Glover pass to Danny Cox for 35 yards and one to Lamb for 15, Kanab found itself at the Beaver 16. Glover then hit Lamb for the touchdown at the southwest corner. Cowboy fans were only slightly dismayed at a rare miss by Darryl Robinson for the extra point. Darryl would make up for it less than two minutes later. ...

The Cowboys were in business at the Beaver 11 and Klint Glover went right to work with a TD toss to Nolan Reidhead with 1:53 to go in the first quarter. Electing to go for two extra points, Glover found Robinson easily for the score. There was no way the large, enthusiastic crowd could know that the scoring was over for the game because the excitement continued, especially for Cowboy fans. The Beavers got one first down on the next series but the defensive line, led by Robert Hill, McKay Brown, and Anthony Giddings, was keeping the dangerous Kelsey under control. Ealy in the second quarter Glover hit Brett Johnson on a 53 yard toss for a score, but it was called back on a procedure penalty. Glover was getting excellent protection from his offensive line with Hill, Kendall Ence, Matt McAllister, Alan Orton, and Kyle Cloward blocking expertly in the face of a solid Beaver pass rush, but i 1 V a 1 3-- s. .'"a IU v. Kanab Cowboys Bring Home Championship by Don Fyfe ' Play it again, Sam. That line from the movie Casablanca" could well describe the latest scrap between Kanab's champion Cowboys and a Beaver team that insists on playing antagonists in the annual shootout for the football championship. Except that Kanab fans would say Play it again, Arlyn, again and again, especially if it is Beaver we are playing. Last Saturday at SUSCs d stadium under clear skies and with a slight southwest wind. The Cowboys shut out Beaver for the title 14-- 0 after scoring their two touchdowns in the first quarter. If that scenario is somewhat reminiscent of the Pokes' homecoming victory last October over the Beavers, let it play again. Only this time the Red and White did not allow any score by the Marshall men. As a matter of fact allow your VCR memory to recall that Kanab did not allow a single point in any of its playoff games this year. Now thats what I call a strategic defense initiative.

Four plays later Reidhead pilfered Kelseys pitch at the goal line, and the half ended without any further threats by either team. Beaver started out the second half with a rush after accepting the kickoff and going 50 yards, most of it on a Kelsey to Dan Marshall pass, one of five Kelsey did not throw in the hands of the Kanab secondary. However, on the next play Darren Davis fumbled at the Cowboy 25 and Cox recovered. Kanab pushed into Beaver territory but had to kick and Reidheads fourth punt went only two yards. After a face mask penalty on the Cowboys put Beaver within scoring distance, Kelsey tried to hit David Albrecht in the end zone, but the Reidhead stole another pass to end the threat.
