Vikings Make Homecoming 'Good', Run Over Lehi Last Friday Afternoon by Dell Young The Pleasant Grove team, known for its "someback heroics," her-oics," did it again Friday afternoon after-noon in the 1974 homecoming game against Lehi by scoring three second quarter TD's to come from behind and go on to win 34-13. On the practice field, the cry all week was "top Davis and you'll stop Lehi." On the third play and Lehi's first pass Rick Nelson hit Robert Davis for 65 yards and the T.D. The P.A.T. was wide but an offside off-side gave Lehi a second chance which Chip Atkinson made good. The ball game was two minutes old and Lehi was in front 7-0. Five new offensive starters dotted the P.G. lineup but a drive that ran up three consecutive consec-utive first downs ended in a fumble that Lehi Jess Davis recovered. After an exchange of punts and the end of the first quarter P.G. sustained a 60 yard drive with Brent Pulley, Ted Karren and Kelly Duke moving thru "big holes" that Carl Christensen, Christen-sen, Kay Swenson, Sam Taylor, Joe Smith and Craig Nielson began to open in the Lehi line. Duke scored on the 3rd consecutive con-secutive "tackles left 123 quickie" quic-kie" after the P.G. offense coach, Jack Hill, had called a time out, threw his hat and "chewed out" a big tackle tell-him tell-him to get "foot to foot." P.G.'s point after was wide. Lehi again went to the air with two completions to Davis, first for 16 yards and then a beautiful diving catch for 30 yards. Quarterback Nelson was then dropped for a 15-yard loss and the next pass was picked off by Tom Wood and returned 25 yards to the Viking 45. Ron Moosman, Bruce Mur-dock Mur-dock quickly teamed with Brad Hardy for a 40-yard pass. Hardy's Har-dy's catch, was, in a word, "sqpectacular." Karren ran to the two where he was jerked down by the face mask. Half the distance moved it to the one and Murdock took it in on a sneak. Moosman took the P.A.T. snap on one knee then quickly stood up (Continued on page 6) Vikings Beat Lehi (Continued from page 1) and threw a perfect soft pass to Hardy who was standing very much alone 4 yards deep in the end zone. P.G.'s defense held the Pioneers Pio-neers and as they punted Kar-ren Kar-ren blocked it and Swenson recovered. Another long pass hit a P.G. receiver in the end zone but it was dropped. Karren ran for 17, 11, 8 and then "dove" in from the four. John Goodman's P.A.T. made it 21-7. With seconds remaining in the half, Goodman tried a 37 yard field goal that was just short. Halftime was different as the popular young coach of the Vikings Vi-kings kept the team outside to watch the Pep Club and a skydiving exhibition. P.G. started the second half by fumbling on the Pioneer 30. Lehi was forced ot punt and P.G. made another drive but Pulley was caught from the backside and stopped short of a first down. The Viking defense, which held Lehi to a total of 3 yards rushing for the game, forced Lehi to punt again. This time Wynn Pead blocked the punt which Hardy caught in the air and ran ot the Lehi 5. Pulley scored and Joe Smith hit the P.A.T. With the P.G. second defense in the game, Lehi's Nelson hit Wade McStay with a 30 yard T.D. pass but they missed- the point after to get their 13 point total. P.G. then drove 70 yards with Karren, Green and Randy Story carrying the ball. Duke scored his second T.D. by racing rac-ing around left end for hte last 15 yards. A fumble broke up the point after attempt. Statistics PI.
