mhe Canadien Champion, Tuesday, October 7, 1997 - 23 Ponies trample White Oaks 42-O By STEVE LeBLANC Special to The Champion A nnhiîlted, battered, destroyed, hammered, mssacrlà, obliteratedà, shellacked. Any and ail of these could be used to describe how White Qaks' senior football team was treated Friday at Milton District High School. Their only aIIy was a second-half running clock - in a crip- pling 42-O defeat at the hands of the vastly superior Mustangs. Finding huge holes ail over the field, MID collected 28 points in the second quarter atone to put the game out of reach by haîf- time. Scoring majors were haltbacks Jim Mors and Marc Poila, receiver Sean Postma and fullback Jared Robinson. Linebacker Doug Taylor, who discovered a knack for kicking one week earlier, booted ail four converts plus two more later in the day. ...... "I was pleased with today's (Friday) effort. We knew we could write our own ticket (for the realignment) with a big Win and right from the onset the guys did just that," said Mustangs' headLX coach Keith Pearce, whose teamn is now 3-I1. Linebacker scores neih tcr efra po n ogv wy "We had a lot of star performances, but I waa also happy with - the play of Richard Jackson, Jason Md3Ouffie and Stu Gilbert. These guys filled in nicely on the offensive line with just three days practice." Mora bolstered Milton's lead with a 75-yard kickoff return touchdown to start the second haîf. Closing out the scoring with a two-yard drive into the end zone waa Matt Rafuse. The veteran linebacker was given the opportunity to score as reward for two previous sacks on Wildcat pivot Frasier Houston. With key passing coverage, particularly by defensive tackle Î Cam Fraser, the Mustangs completely blanketed White Oaks' air game. Other standouts on defence were Taylor and fellow linebacker Matt Dempster as well as nose guard Mark Dow. Robinson had the play of the gamne, carrying five White Qaks defenders on his back, front and aides for a seven-yard gain. Juniors rmnally win Ian Robinson broke for two long touchdown runs Thursday in Oakville. In doing an, he helped the junior 'Stangs break into the Win column. The speedy flanker scored on two reverse pasa patterns in the first and third quartera. He also kicked the extra point on his sec- ond major, giving MD ail of its pointa in a 13-7 triumph over1- White Oaks. They now sit at 1-2. "It waa the threat of the pass which really opened things up for us," head coach Vemne O'Neil explaned. "Ian (Robinann) ran for 80 yards overaîl on three identical plays." Quarterback Jon Sprenger's effective air strike - to Wayne Meinen, Ken Drummond and Josh Van Koot - set the stage for Robinan's heroica.
