Longhorns Turn Bobcat
Turnovers into Playoff
Victory
By Brian Richardton
Unable to overcome two inter-
ceptions and two lost fumbles, the
Orangefield Bobcats were forced
to pack up their equipment for the
1988 football season.
The Bobcats fell 21-14 to the 11-
0 Hamshire-Fannett Longhorns
Friday night in Port Neches ending
Dennis Robbin’s successful first
year as head coach with a 9-2
record.
Along with a 4-0 advantage in
turnovers, the Longhorns were
able to hold All-State tailback Toby
Shults to just 77 yards on 18 carries.
It was the turnovers, however,
that consistently stopped Oran-
gefield drives and led to two Lon-
ghorn touchdowns.
After a 64-yard touchdown run
put H-F up 6-0 in the first quarter,
Longhorn linebacker Todd Bel-
langer intercepted a Jeff Granger
pass and returned it to the Bobcat
30-yard line.
In seven plays, the Longhorns
drove in for their second touch-
down and a 13-0 lead early in the
second quarter.
The Bobcats refused to be
shutout in the half and managed an
eight-play, 53-yard drive that
ended with a pretty 8-yard touch-
down pass from Granger to
Dominic Menard.
With 2:11 left before intermis-
sion, Todd McManus connected
on the extra point to cut the Lon-
ghorn lead to 13-7.
In the third quarter, neither team
could reach the end zone although
H-F managed to penetrate the
Ornagefield 30-yard line. A field
goal attempt of 42 yards was
missed, however, by Longhorn
kicker Steve Racca.
Later in the third period, the
Bobcats had a first down near mid-
field. But a Granger pass was pick-
ed off by safety Felman Malveaux,
whose 55-yard run for an apparent
touchdown was wiped out by a clip-

REACH TO RECOVERY
Many women may experience
fear and frustration after
undergoing a mastectomy or
a lumpectomy. However, stud-
ies indicate that the majority
of women can resume healthy,
normal and productive lives
after these operations. “Reach
to Recovery," a free patient
service program offered
through the American Cancer
Society, can be instrumental in
helping women learn to
understand and cope with
their experiences with breast
cancer.

ping penalty.
The Longhorns refused to let the
Bobcat gift go to waste, however,
and drove from their own 48-yard
line in seven plays for the touch-
down.
H-F coach Claude Tarver opted
io attempt the two point conversion
and it proved a success as quarter-
back Will Prudhomme completed a
2-yard pass to Anthony Scmien.
The conversion left Hamshire-
Fannett up 21-7 early in the final
period.
The Bobcats waited too long,
however, to start a rally. Late in the
fourth quarter, they drove 84-yards
on 14 plays to cut the lead to 21-14.
Granger hit Minard from 14
yards out for the score.
Orangefield then attempted an
onside kick and apparantly gained
possession when a Bobcat
defender fell on the ball. An official
ruled, however, that the ball had
not traveled the necessary ten
yards.
Gaining possession, the Lon-
ghorns ran out the final 1 1/2
minutes and sealed the victory.
Despite the loss, Orangefield had
a successful season finishing with a
9-1 record and district victories
over perenial powers Kirbyville
and Newton.
Toby Shults ended his final year
as a Bobcat with 1,438 yards rush-
ing and a better than average shot
at the All-State team.
600 BALLOONS RELEASED- The Great American SmokeOut got a
