It happens, however, quite often and the Altamont Longhorns fell prey to such a situation last Friday, August 26. The Longhorns traveled to Dug-wa- y for their first game of the season, and things went poorly from the start. According to Longhorn coach Frank Hill, they had a problem in communications and the trip took longer than was expected. For this reason, Altamont arrived in Dugway at 7:30 p.m., the time at which the gome was to have begun. By the time Altamont was suited up they had only five minutes to warm-uIt was kind of a funny game," said Coach Hill. It was a strange night all the way around. Altamont opened the game by kicking off to Dugway and proceeded to go down the field and knock the ball loose. From there the Longhorns marched down the field until they reached the 20 yard line.-A- t they were stopped. We moved the ball at will' between the 20 yard lines, said HilL . He explained that Dugway scored two quick touchdowns in the first quarter, both on long passes. Hill said his defensive line, however, shut p. this-point Back row, Margaret Copland, Barbara Timper, Carrie Biley, Lisa Jorgensen, Christie Austin, Lana Davis. Edwards.

The score remained 14-- 0 throughout most of the game until the final quarter when Altamont was forced to gamble in order to score. Dugway then got one final touchdown .when their quarterback scrambled across the goal line. The Longhorns had one touchdown called back in the first half of the play, and missed another by inches. He said that late in the first half his Longhorns were called for holding, a penalty which nullified a touchdown. He said the ball then went to Dugway and after stopping the Mustangs, Altamont began to move the ball once again. The final play of the first half found the Longhorns only inches short of the goal line. Hill said his team was plagued by a number of penalties. He said the major cause was the short warm-uperiod they had. The other factor which Hill felt contributed was their Other than the two inexperience. passes and the one scrambling play, said Hill, we shut them down. ; The Longhorns collected about 200. yards' on the gratind. Cash Fishei; for approximately 100 .yards 'with Tim Thayne rushing for about 50. Hall said that Todd Aldredge also did an excellent job for the Longhorn offensive attack: ' Coach Hill credited his defensive p rar the Dugway line for controlling running attack. He said they were able to physically control Dummy on the line, but Dugway was abb to get three scoring plays off. "The linemen are Jeff Bro thereon, Curtis Brinlter-hoff- . Curtis Miles and Royal Hart. Hill explained that anyone watching the game and not knowing the score would have assumed Altamont was controlling the game, a fact which t was true. Hill said the problem came about when the Longhorns got inside the 20 yard line. He said the inexperience showed in this area because his running backs werent sure just where to run. Hill added, however, that they did a great job and will contribute greatly in later games. Following the opening game loss, a loss which Hill said he is still trying to figure out, the Longhorns will host the Park City Miners Friday, September 2 at 7:30 p.m. Hill said he doesn't know a great deal about Park City, but remembers they had a good team last year. The able to defeat the , Miners Longhorns quite handily v last year,1 but Hill said the game was their: second in about four days. The Altamont coach said his team got the usual bumps and bruises, but will & L .
