(the Rams) were going to be
hard to beat.
“We had never beaten them.
They were playing in their home
city. They had never been in the
Super Bowl before. We were on
the verge of setting history.
"They were really charged
up. We had doubts, especially
in the first half when we were
lethargic. Every time we'd

Decker said that the mail concern for the Whitefaces this
week however is to rid themselves of constant turnovers that
have plagued them in the past.

It was typical of the old bald

With 2:48 gone in the third
period, Bradshaw went to
Swann, unloading a bomb that
the lithe wide receiver caught
with a leap at the 2-yard line.
He tumbled into the end zone to
complete the 47-yard scoring
play. It put the Steelers back on
top 17-13.
The Plainsmen have been grabbing 57 percent of their
defensive rebounds this year largely due to the efforts of 6-6 post
Trav Clardy with an average of 20 rebounds per outing.
"There’s no doubt that we'll have to keep him (Clardy off the
boards, but he's not the only one,” said HHS coach Bob Decker.
"Ian Hyslop (also a post at 6-6) has been doing real well for them
too this year.”
"They run a 2-3 zone defense just like we do and they run it
very well so at least we know what will work against it and what
won’t," said Decker.
"On defense, our main objective is to make them shoot outside
and to keep Clardy and Hyslop away from the bucket, but our
hands are going to be full because they can shoot from outside
too," he said. "I don't know how wei stop the big guys and
their guards at the same time, but we've done it before and we'll

Plainsmen (both unbeaten in district play 1-0) pair off against
each other tonight in Lubbock at 7:30. and to hear the two teams
roaches talk, the other team is going to have to be the one who
makes all the changes in game plans because both are satisfied
with the way their games are coming along.
"As far as any adjustments go in our game plan-we don't
have any and won t be making any," said Monterey head roach
Joe Michalka. "What we've been doing so far this year (a slow
controlled-shot when you've got a shot plan) has paid off for us
quite well so far and our win over the Lubbock Westerners is a
testiment to that fact."
The Plainsmen knocked off Lubbock High 70-50 in their first
district opener a week ago.
"I won't deny that everybody down here was surprised that
Hereford beat the Plainview Bulldogs last week because no one
■figured they would come on and do that well with their game so
quick, in the season, but our kids have alot of pride too and
chey’re not ready to lose their first district game," said
Michalka. "What it will boil down to is who has the stronger
defense, because we both have good offenses. And we feel like
we'll beat the Whitefaces on the boards.”
