Longhorns trample Dawgs By COLIN GIBSON The arks were parked for the sec- ond Sunday in a row and fleet feet took precedence over hip waders as the Georgetown Mens Flag Football League reached the halfway point of its 1992 season be aan July 5 at Neilson’s aa premier match of the day saw defending league champion Dawgs go head-to-head with 1992 league-leading Longhorns and limp off the field on the heels of a 29-15 loss. The loss dropped the Dawgs to third place in the league standings, four points behind the frontrunning Longhorns and two points behind Meznic Electric, which had a bye last Sunday. Third place M & M hung on to edge a stubborn Oldtimers squad 21-19, while the New Kids on the Block picked up their first win of the season when only three Plus Welding players were available to answer the bell at game time. Longhorns 29 - Dawgs 15 In what should have been a game super-charged with purpose — a win would have vaulted the Dawgs into a first-place tie with the Longhorn: — neither team was particularly sharp but ‘Horns persevered for the win. & Longhorns held a slim seven point lead at the half 15-8, but an early second half touchdown and convert effectively put the game away. Dawgs normally sure-armed and hyper quarterback John Egan was strangely subdued and a telling fac- tor in the game was the four QB sacks registered by Longhorn’s Greg Hulbert. Hulbert also did an efficient job piloting the Longhorn offence hit- ting three different receivers for majors. Perennial scoring threat Bob Davey scored two touchdowns while Paul Allison and Rob Rivers also counted six pointers. Dave Paterson kicked five scoring points. Brad Finucan scored a touch- down and corralled a two-point convert, while Linus Stasiulis counted a major and Frank Bruno kicked a convert. Mike DelGuidice of the Dawgs had the game’s only interception. M & M21 - Oldtimers 19 With rumors swirling — later con- firmed by league officials — that the Oldtimers were dropping out of the league, this game also lacked the necessary spark. Horace Thomas and Rory Kennedy shared the quarterbacking chores for M.& M, with Kennedy seeing the bulk of the action at pivot in the second half. Four new faces dotted the Oldtimers lineup, proof-positive that the team was having a hard be getting its players out. M & M led 13-7 at the half and survived an Oldtimers late-game surge to post the narrow win Horace Thomas proved to bea force to be reckoned with on both sides of the ball scoring a touch- down, kicking two converts, and snagging an interception and pick- ing up a scoring point on a missed field goal attempt. Rory Kennedy counted a touch- down while #83 (no name listed on the scoresheet) had a touchdown and an interception. For the Oldtimers, some new-old faces returned to the pigskin battle- field and injected a bit of life into the dying Oldtimers corpse. Speedy Bill Fournier returned to the scene of past triumphs and scored a touchdown, picked off an interception and kicked a convert. Mike Henderson also returned to action and scored a touchdown, MONEY ORDERS $4.45 per money order for up to $999.00 orders. Money Orders to U.S.A. $2.25 International Money Orders Also Available.

New Kids 7 - Plus Welding 0 “We won, we won,” cried the one New Kids on the Block fan in the otherwise deserted stands. “Our first points of the season.” A tainted victory? So what! Two points are two points and the league’s newest entry might finally be headed in the right direction. Plus Welding had only three players on hand at game time — rumors of a church meeting — and so the New Kids won by default. The New Kids toughest decision of the day seemed to be which play- er to award the seven points to. A party was proposed to mull over the important issue and on this point, all were in agreement. Statistics released by the GMFFL as of June 28) show Dave Clements of The Dawgs and Gary Lockwood of Meznic Electric tied atop the scoring leader board with 62 points half way through the 1992 season. Interesting to note, three Longhoms, Bob Davey, Rob Rivers and Jim Lindsay round out the top five scoring leaders.
