AND THE Darts' strategoy worked to perfection. Co-Captain Clay Singley dropped drop-ped back and lofted a pass to Greg Willard on the first play from scrimmage which Willard earned to the Vikes' 20. Another quick pass to Willard netted five yards and set up the trap play for Blake Hart to carry to the two-yard line. HART WASTED no time in plunging over for the first Darts score with just over two minutes expired in the first period. Kyle Knowles booted the extra point. Viewmont rambled right back on big-yardage plays by Kelly Mar-tines Mar-tines and Jim Bender, but the Vikes' offensive attack was shortlived short-lived and they were forced to punt one of four punts for Viewmont in the first half. ON THE second series of plays, Davis was back to its hard-running offense with Hart, Kurt Mounteer and Chris Card running almost at will. In fact, th Darts moved 69 yards in eight plays with Mounteer hitting paydirt on a seven-yard scamper over the middle. Bender again excited the hometown home-town fans with some brilliant running run-ning for the Vikes on their second series. But the Dart defense toughened -- as it did all night -- and Viewmont was forced to punt again. THIS TIME, the Darts maneuvered maneu-vered 73 yards on just six plays --all --all of them on the ground. The fabulous trio of Hart, Mounteer and Card again put on a spectacular exhibition - gaining 10 to 15 yards at a whack to move to the Viewmont View-mont 18. At this point, Card got his opportunity oppor-tunity to score and did so with an 18-yard scamper around left end and a beautiful cutback on the five to go unmolested into the end zone with less than 10 seconds into the second period. Intermission score was 19-0. BOTH TEAMS played excellent defense throughout the second half with the Darts managing a 35-yard field goal by Knowles -- his longest of the season to make it 22-0. T ' -1 - . nam,, i i - , -- n- . . - . . The final score of the game came with seven seconds left in the third period on a combination of runs and passes to move the ball 66 yards. Hart scored from one yard out. BOTH TEAMS scored apparent touchdowns late in the game only to have the scores nullified because of offensive penalties. Viewmont had its only apparent score called back on a clipping penalty pen-alty during a play in which Jason Burningham hit wide receiver Mike Goodrich with a sideline pass. Mike side-stepped one defender defen-der and raced the opposite to paydirt. The play would have covered co-vered 35 yards. IN THE waning. minutes of the game, Card scampered down the sideline for what looked like a 55-yard 55-yard score only to have it returned because of holding against the Darts. Coach Dickson, who actually handles the defensive chores for Davis, said he was "very pleased with the Darts' defensive play except ex-cept for getting a little complacent jn the second quarter." BUT KE was not that excited about ab-out getting a shutout. "We're out there to play our best and if a shutout shut-out comes, that's fine," he said, noting that he played many of his reserves late in the game. "The reserves are a big part of the team and they practice hard each week and deserve to see action ac-tion as much as possible. I thought they did a good job," he smiled. |
