Times Advocate, 1984-10-17, Page 15Juniors win in Toronto South Huron's junior foot- ball team travelled to Toron- to this week for an exhibition match against a second senior squad from Upper Canada College. The local griders defeated the city team 13-7 in a very close, exciting match. Darryl McCann intercepted an Upper Canada College pass early in the first quarter which set up a 40 yard scoring drive. Scott Heywood ran the ball across the goal -line for the game's first major, but the locals were unsuccessful on the convert attempt. The city boys went ahead after a long drive in the se- cond. South Huron's missed convert attempt was the dif- ference in the game at half time. Defence was the Panther's strong hand in the second quarter. After several long Toronto runs, the locals found themselves defending their goal line. The Panthers stop- ped a Toronto run from the five yard line and shut their opponents down twice again from the three to get the ball back on downs. After a scoreless third quarter, Trevor Cottrell in- tercepted a Toronto pass at the 35 yard line and returned the ball 24 yards to the Toron- to 11. South Huron picked up a first down inside the one then Heywood scored his second touchdown of the game. Jon O'Connor converted the ma- jor to complete the scoring. The junior griders' defence played strongly for three quarters. The defensive strength came from the line consisting of Steve Wilkinson, Gerhard Rempel, Joe Gower, Roger Ward, and Maarten Reymer. Junior coach Dave Cox thought that the team played really well. "It was a tough, clean ball game", Cox said. "The trip was a good ex- perience for the team, both culturally as well as athletically." Cox also had praise for the kicking game of Tim Moore. "Moore's foot got us out of several tough spots". Moore punted the ball nine times during the match with his longest covering 45 yards. Both of South Huron's foot- ball teams are back in action this week. The seniors travel to Clinton Thursday and the junior team makes the trip to Wingham. Both games kick off at 2:00. r 1 THREE STRAIGHT FOR IRISH — 'playoff championship for the third left and vice-president Fred Cook, Smith and Kevin Windsor.
