.Dublin Yields To A Hot
Offense, Tough Defense
%
Very little went in favor of the
Lions last Friday night including
the initial flip of the coin. DeLeon
chose to receive and Dublin elec-
ted to take the wind from the
south. The game started as ev-
eryone expected. DeLeon made
one first down then the Lirn defen-
se stiff°ned, forcing a punt which
went out of bounds at the Dublin
28. Dublin cuuld not move the
ball and punted to DeLeon where
the receiver was stopped in his
tracks at his own 35 by Mickey
, Kennedy and Pat Laatherwood.
'The next play Martin Yarborough
stopped the rush after a three
yard gain, but the Bearcats went
to the Dublin 41 for Their second
first dewn. DeLeon marched to
the Lion 20 where they had fourth
and five yards to go and went for
the field goal Toby Hare put it
through the uprights and with
2:40 to go in the first quarter, De-
Leon had three points on the
scoreboard.
Monte Burk ran back the kick
off for fifteen yards to his own
35. Four runs by Mike Jumey
%-rlh ait assist Pom Burke netted
39 to the DeLeon 31 at the end of
ibe first quarter. In that drive
Jumey had his longest run of the
night for 25 yards. With fourth
and inches the Lions went for it,
but the tough defense held. De-
1 con took over on their own 28
yard line and cranked up. After
two piays made nine yards, Mark
McKilhp broke loose for DeLeon
and raced to the Dublin 22 yard
line where Leatherwood saved-
the touchdown. With the help of
an offside penalty DeLeon scored
the first touchdown at 7:56. Score
Dublin 0 Deleon 10
Dublin could not movel the ball
after the kickoff and Randy Clai-
toi punted to the DeLeon 25 where
♦excellent coverage by Randy Mann
ana Royce stopped the ball car-
rier in his tracks. Dublin heio
and DeLeon punted where the
Lions had good field position at
the Bearcat 46. One running play
and two passes added up to only
one yard gain; so — another Dub-
lin punt to the DeLeon 15. Stay-
ing on the ground the Bearcats
got three more first downs and
got to the Dublin J1 before time
got short. Jumey intercepted a
pass, but he was ruled out of
bounds then Warren broke up the
next pass to end the half. The
Dublin defense had been effec-
t.ve with good hard tackling
from Darwin Hester, Tommy
Herod, Mickey Kennedy, Martin
Yarborough, Pat Leatherwood,
Randy Claitor and Vernon Scales,;,
The Dublin pass defense had-
been iust about air tight allowing
only two completions in eight at-
tempts for only eight yards.
The half time was won clearly
by the Dandy-Lions and Dublin
came back to play. From their
own 31 Mike Jumey hauled the
pigskin most of the yardage
where a third and five at the De-
Leon 30 looked promising. How-
ever, a five yard penalty foq de-
lav of the game made it third and
10. A running play for no gain
and an incomplete pass broke the
back of what could have been the
drive that turned the game around
for Dublin This proved to be the
last threatening drive generated
by Dublin.
DeLeon ground out 68 yards in
eight plays to seme with 7:51
gone in the second half. The
Lions gave ground grudgingly.
Don Pair and Martin Yarborough
were involved in most of the tae-
