Junior Vikings use raze
dazzle to beat Clinton29-0
BY T.D.
The G.D.C.I. 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.
