Show Sophs Drop SprsEigifiSSe 32-8 , 6th Straight Win by Jack HiU Tuesday was a calm, warm fall day perfect for football. An made it six in a row with a convincing 32-8 win over a good Springville bunch. The Red Devil squad scored first on a well executed play-action play-action pass that fooled the P.G. secondary. Springville tried the same play to the other side for a successful two-point conversion conver-sion and took the early lead 8-0. "Fooled once, but not again" proved to be" the Viking motto because the defense completely complete-ly shut off the Devil passing game from that point. Craig Walker made a fine interception intercep-tion to halt one drive while Linebacker Kelly Nelson intercepted inter-cepted to stop another. P.G.'s linemen put increasingly increas-ingly heavy pressure on the Q.B. with Russell Robinson and Kirk Tanner each dropping him for big losses. With Springville leading 8-0 P.G. returned the kickoff to the 32 yard line. A power play on first down went 68 yards with Tom Strasburg getting good blocks and breaking two tackles enroute to the T.D. Kurt Christensen carried for the 2 points to tie the game at 8 apiece. On P.G.'s third drive of the second quarter, Layne Butt hit Gary Jackson with a 25 yard pass down to the six. The official of-ficial ruled that Jackson came down in bounds, a call "hotly" disputed by the Springville staff. A "half the distance" penalty moved the ball to the three where Layne Butt stepped step-ped in for the score on a nice option. An attempted run for 2 points came up short. Springville was forced to punt. The Vikes took over on the 50 and went the distance in 5 plays. The last 17 was on a pass from Butt to Jackson that the "slippery" wingback caught between two defenders and darted in for the score to make it 20-8 as the half ended. Strasburg scored from 24 yards out to start the third quarter but the point after fell incomplete. Late in the fourth quarter, with Bret Frampton running the Viking offense, Brian Storms did just that. He stormed storm-ed around left end, cut back behind be-hind great blocking to race 58 yards for the T.D. The sophs came up with 5 TDs but only made good on one point after try or the point spread would have been larger. The squad travels to Spanish Span-ish Fork Wednesday Oct. 16 for a 4 p.m. game. Spanish recently recent-ly defeated American Fork 8-6 on a last minute pass on the basis of the games against A.F., the game should be close. |
