The Vikings went into the game with a 6-0 won -lost record in regular play and an over-all record of eight wins and one tie for the season. That string of nine un- defeated games included a 22- 6 victory over the Panthers ilk here in the regular season. However, it just was not in the cards for the„Vikings to repeat as Huron -Perth. Chapmpions this year. As Viking coach Phil Bugler expressed it, "They won as a team all year, and they l,st it as a team Saturday." ' The Vikings never, did get untracked in .the cham- pionship game while the Panthers came up with- a strong performance. The Panthers mixed a variety of inside running and accurate passing -to move the ball effectively , while their defence stopped the Viking ground attack, which had carried them through ,their undefeated season. Late in the game the V ikings went to the pass, and except for a couple' of "almost -completions", when receivers failed to hang on, might have,found themselves back in the game. The Panthers led 12-0 at halftime on touchdown runs by Paul Pooley and Jeff O'Brien. Brad Cann's 25 yard run gave the Panthers an 18-0 lead before Tom O'Keefe scored the Vikings only touchdown on a one yard run. Rob Skinrier added the last Panthers touchdown circ - a pass tram Perry Pooley and Paul Van Gerwen ran for a two point conversion to cornp,lete the scoring late in rhe fourth quarter, Although they ob\ i++�i51y were disappointed at tailing to win the championship game after such a fine season, coaches Bugler and Bill Garrow and the junior Vikings must know they can be proud of their efforts this ° Niwa season. • They provided a fine example of teamwork and' dedication and , gave GDCI football fans a lot to cheer .about. • The GDCI cheerleaders didn't have too much to cheer about kept spirits up throughout the game.
