New cocich odds to Frosh tecim's excitement by Mitch Jordan It wasn't over until the last seconds of the game. Blue Ridge was behind 12-18. Mike Schimmel pitched the ball to Tim Neumann, and then he hit Mike Mclnelly for an 80 yard pass. Follow- ing that play there was a 15 yard pen- alty, and the Jackets had the ball on the Alchesay Falcon five yard line. 1 With just seconds remaining, run- ning back Craig Lash broke through to tie the game up at 18-18. Blue Ridge then made the conversion to win 20- 18. According to Coach Ken Sayer, Craig Lash was responsible for most of the scoring this season, and he was also Most Valuable Player as tailback on the Junior Varsity squad. Mr. Paul Moro, moved here from California in 1978. He was the fresh- man Coach and an assistant varsity coach. As a first year coach at Blue Ridge, he led the Freshmen to a respectable 2-1-1 record. Exciting vic- tories over the Show Low Cougars and a romp over the Round Valley Elks C48-OJ highlighted his coaching debut. Outstanding players for the season were Frank Parkinson, Troy Rivers, Ronnie Wilson, David Cartier, and Tim Neumann. The leading receiver for the season was Spencer Lawrence, and leading rusher was Tim Neu- mann. Neumann was also the leading scorer. Coach Moro stated Seasons can always be better, but I was very pleased with this one. . Many Freshmen will be seeing a lot of varsity action in the next three years. The Freshmen will long remem- ber the three goal line stands in a game against Snowflake. The final score in that contest was 6-6. 3 2 JV-FROSH FOOTBALL 77
