Marauders rally to topple T.O.0 ,-Mosquîtoes win By MURRAY TOWNSEND Special to The Champion On an afîeinoon far too bot for football ai Milton District Higb Scbool. the Marauders warmed up after a cold start and iced the Toronto Maddogs 23-14 Saturday -running tbeir record to 2-O. Toronto's tirst play of the gaine resulted in a 65-yard pass reception and a 7-0 lead. A couple plays tater, Milton quarterback Domenic Camastro sîepped in a pot bole as be wenî back to pass and wenî clown as if be'd been shot. The resulting fumble put the bosts in a bole in their own ierriiory and at quarterback, punter and kicker witb Camastro out of tbe gaine. H-e's questionable for this week as well. The Maddogs oniy managed a single point off the fumble, but the Marauders weren't moving the bail offensively, despite fumble recoveries by Kirby Ginn and Wayne Sliwinski. Backup quarterback Josb Spanik suffered a couple intercep- tions, and the Maraudera sustained more injuries - partly froin tbe heat and partly front tbe Maddogs' bard-bitting defense. Milton finally got a break wben uine- backer Derrick Burke stripped s bail carri- er deep in tise Toronto zone, and Mike Bartello scooped it up and took it in for the major. That seemed to spark the offense, andi Spanik's improved confidence was notice- able.

The result was a convincing 8-4 decision and bump up to, 7-3 in COBA play - con- tinuing the Red Sox' best start in recent memory. "We only left four guys on base, tbat was tbe big tbing," said manager George Moore, referring to tbe bigb number of stranded runners beading mbt this past weekend.
