The Lancers had to rely on a Bonneville win over Roy on Friday in order to meet Roy in the playoff game. In the decisive sixth inning Layton played like' they felt lucky. They reversed the two regular season wins the Royals swept from them and came away with 1 j an 1 By win. -2 virtue of the victory the Lancers fill the third and final interregional playoff spot for Region post-seaso- 1. In Fridays games, Layton was beaten by Region champ Weber Bonneville downed Roy Box Elder captured second place with a 1 win over Clearfield and in Region 4 Davis finished a dismal season with a 3 loss to ViewmontJ Layton had not been successful against Roy in the season race and they were eager for another chance at the Royals. Meanwhile frpm Roys perspective, one of the hardest things to do in sports is beat a good team the third time in a year which you were supposed to play the team just twice. Both teams played the anticipated closely fought game until the sixth inning when, with the score 1 in favor of the Lancers, Layton hitters suddenly came 1 5-- 0, 11-- j 3, 7-- 7-- . 2-- alive. They lashed out seven hits and brought 12 batters to the plate before recording an lout. Layton scored nine runs in the sixth to break thej game open. Roy added one more in the bottom of the seventh in a h effort to come back, but the damage was already done and Layton came away with the win. last-ditc- For Layton coach Brad Hawkins the sixth inning breakthrough was what he had been waiting for all season. We finally broke out of our shell and the kids finally started swinging and hitting like they can, Hawkins said. We felt a little bit lucky to be here. We had to rely on some help from Bonneville to get us here, but it's like I told the kids, its all up to us from here on out, Hawkins added. For Roy coach Fred Thompson the Lancer rally put a halt to any n hopes, but there was one small redeeming feature to the loss. Our kids didnt come up short on effort, Thompson said. We made some changes in the lineup because after our two losses at the end of the regular season, and the kids responded to the challenge . . . One aspect of the game that was good is that I was happy to see some of Laytons kids do well. Im happy to see kids who have started for Layton two and three years and who have struggled a bit this season, have some success and now have a chance to go on, Thompson said. Of course I wish it wasnt at our expense, but if a guys gotta lose . . . Thompson didn't complete the sentence. The game started out as close as the first meeting between the two teams earlier this season. The same pitchers started James Kortright for Layton and Kevin Frongner for the Royals. Roy escaped a potentially dangerous first inning and quelled an early Layton rally that looked like it could score several runs. The Lancers only got one. The Royals answered with a run of their own in the bottom of the first. Photo by Robert Regan THE BALL in front of bounces free as a Layton baserunner hits the dirt home plate.

The Lancers collected 13 hits on the day, with Brian Bailey and Boyd Murray getting three each. Bailey had two RBI and Murray added one. Sam Million had two hits and two RBI. Robert Ferneau hit twice and added one RBI and Steve Montano hit twice and added two RBI. Casey Stanger in his first start, was the Roy designated hitter and rally that saw the Lancers blow the game with Roy wide open. to lead the Region champion Warriors. Layton coach Hawkins said his team didnt hit well Friday but they played good defense. Pitcher Rex Brimhall was effective throughout the contest, but Weber got ahold of some of his pitches for 10 hits. The win gave Weber a 1 region record and relegated Layton to a tie for third with Roy. - ay '"i'x jY w' .J C t Photo by Robert Regan ROY PITCHER Kevin Frongner talks matters over with Fred Thompson during the who ; Six high school seniors, or collectively won 1 1 State track and field titles in last weeks respective meets, have signed national letters of intent to compete for Weber State.
