Junior Vikings defeated the Central Huron Redmen-29-0 in Huron - Perth Conference football action in Clinton Thursday', but it was a "razzle-dazzle" fourth quarter touchdown that had the boys excited on the ride home. The •razzle-dazzle play, described by coach Bruce Baker as a "low percentage play that you might try once in a game", involves a, fake through the line, and a hand off on an end -around which turns into a delayed reverse and then a pitch back to quarterback Brian Lane who then passes to Brian Corriveau who made the initial fake through the line and then continued his pattern downfield. The Vikings had practiced the play but this was the first time they tried it in a game, and guess what ... it worked! worked! That touchdown was really just the icing on the cake for the rapidly improving Vik- ings who have won twice since losing the first game of the season to Stratford Northwestern. The Viking defence was rock -solid, limiting the Redmen to five first downs and producing four turnovers, two of them— pass interceptions by Brian Corriyeau. Offensively, the Vikings piled up 422 yards ,and a total of 24 first downs.. . Ian Wark and Pheng Troeung carried the ball 16 and 15 timer respectively, and each gained over 100 yards. Work scored two second quarter touchdowns on runs of six and two yards and Troeung scored on a six yard run in the third quarter. The Vikings also had two' two-point con- versions, one on a pass from .Lane to Cor- riveau, the other on a quarterback keeper by Lane. Mike Stegenstad kicked another convert. Coaches Baker and Bill Garrow were pleased with the job done by back-up players who filled in for missing guards Tim Moss and Scott McPhee who were out with injuries. Thursday, the Vikings travel to Palmerston to play the Norwell. Redmen. Seniors open season 0-2 with loss to Stratford. BY T.D. • The G.D.C.I. senior Vikings find themselves in a very unusual position following the first two games of their Huron -Perth Conference football schedule. For the first time in the 16 year coaching career of Head Coach Ray Donnelly, the Vikings have lost their first two games. • Their 0-2 record, going into this Thurs- day's game in Palmerston against the Norwell Redmen, leaves the Vikings in serious danger of not making the playoffs. The schedule consists of only four games. The Vikings remaining game will be here a week from Thursday against the Listowel Lords. The Vikings have played probably their toughest two opponents already, but vic- tories over Norwell and Listowel are critical if they hope to be serious con- tenders for the Huron Perth Championship. The Vikings second loss came last Thursday in Stratford at the hands of the Stratford Central Rams by the score of 14-7. The Vikings went on top 7-0 in the first quarter on the strength of a two-vard touchdown run by Wayne Nivins, followed by Greg Alcock's convert. The touchdown was set up by a 35 yard pass and run play from quarterback Greg Alcock to Bob Pellow. The Rams came back with two con- verted touchdowns to win the game. Mark White, in the second quarter, and Bob Bishop in the fourth quarter, scored the Ram touchdowns on one yard runs. Coach Donnelly, who has the reputation of getting all there is to get out of his teams, feels this year's Vikings have not yet developed the necessary ag- gressiveness needed to play the game successfully. • The Vikings offence had its moments, but fumbles and penalties seemed to wipe out serious scoring threats. Donnelly would not comment on the defensive play of his team except to say it was a good example of how not to play defence. The Vikings will be going through some tough practices this week as coach Donnel- ly and his assistant Chris Connor get them ready for the second half of their schedule. Beach Bums take 5 points Wed.
