LUBBOCK - Saturday’s night
District 1-4A game against Lubbock
Dunbar did not begin the way that
the Hereford High School coaching
staff would like to have seen it begin,
but it certainly ended as they would
have it end, with Hereford on top.
Lubbock Dunbar’s Craig Ross
returned the game-opening kickoff 98
yards for a touchdown, and caught a
two-point conversion pass from
quarterback Quinton Walker, giving
the Panthers an early 8-0 lead over a
stunned Hereford team.
But when it all ended, two
touchdown passes from Todd Shire to
Bobby Baker and two rushing
touchdowns by Vincent Brown had
propelled the Whitefaces to a 28-15
victory over Dunbar.
The win kept Hereford undefeated
for the season in five games, in-
cluding a 3-0 mark in District 1-4A
action.
Canyon defeated Dumas 34-14 to
remain tied for first place in the
district, and Borger beat Frenship
31-14 to stay close to Hereford and
Canyon with a 2-0 district record.
The surprise of the week, however,
was in Levelland Friday when
Levelland battled No. 1 ranked Lub-
bock Estacado to a 14-14 tie.
After Dunbar achieved its early 8-0
lead over Hereford Saturday, the
Whitefaces were stopped near mid-
field in their first possession.
Dunbar could not put together
much of a drive in its next posses-
sion. In a second down play for
Hereford at the Panther 48. Dunbar
knocked the ball loose from
Whiteface running back Mark Artho
and recovered the fumble.
The Panthers were unable to get a
first down after recovering that
Hereford fumble, and were forced to
punt.
Herd defensive player Chris
Bullard blocked the punt, and team-
mate Kyle Streun returned the ball
40 yards to the Dunbar 6-yard line.
Hereford later scored in a fourth
down play, with Bobby Baker cat-
ching a five-yard pass from Todd
Shire for the touchdown. A pass at-

1.,
A 28-yard pass completion from
Shire to Baker, and two runs of 10 or
more yards by Artho, helped
Hereford put together another
touchdown drive. That possession
was 57 yards in nine plays, with Vin-
cent Brown carrying the final two
yards for the touchdown, with 1:53
left in the third period.
A pass fell incomplete in a two-
point conversion attempt, and
Hereford's lead stood at 28-8.
In the second play of Dunbar's next
possession, the Panther quarterback
broke loose for a big gain before
defensive tackle Brent Berry of the
Whitefaces made a touchdown-
saving tackle. That run put Dunbar
at its own 46 with a first down.
But two plays later, cornerback
Robby Collier of the Herd thwarted
the Panthers' comeback efforts by
intercepting a pass at the Hereford
26 and returning it 13 yards. It was
Collier’s third interception of the
season, coming in the last play of the
third quarter.
The fourth quarter was loaded with
turnovers. Dunbar recovered a Mark
Artho fumble with about nine
minutes left in the game. Three plays
later, Lee Young of Hereford
recovered a fumble lost by the Pan-
ther quarterback.
Then in Hereford's third play of its
next possession, Dunbar’s Craig
Ross intercepted a pass made by the
Herd’s Raymond Romo.
That interception was made at the
Hereford 48-yard line. Dunbar drove
for its other touchdown of the game,
with quarterback Walker scoring
from 12 yards out with 2:36 left in the
game. Scott Perkins kicked the extra
