Not only did we win a game but we won our first Homecoming. Mission Viejo starts the action with a twenty-yard kick-off. Villa Park takes off and gets to the three-yard line where we fumble. l-lowever, after a couple of minutes we are back down there and Bob Rodgers manages to cross the line for six points. ln the second quarter Paul l-lart runs forty yards for a touch- down. Shortly after, Pat Mclnally recovers a fumble and scores. Meanwhile, Mission Viejo is unable to get beyond the thirty-five yard-line during the entire first half. When the half time show starts, the Spartans are leading l9-O. When the second half opens, Mission is out for revenge. ln the third quarter Bob Rodgers scores again. The extra point is classified no good, but no one seems to mind. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Mission Viejo is forced into a punting situation. When Jeff Phillips re- covers the punt, he finds a hole and manages to get through for another Spartan touchdown. Dave Luchau kicks the extra point which brought the score up to 32 for the Spartans. Mission Viejo is still unable to score. Then the balloon popped. Mission manages to get through the Villa Park defense and score not just once but twice, making the game more interesting. The final tally shows Villa Park ahead 32-13. Statistically speaking, the 'Di- alolos do not have a chance. They chalked up 56 yards at an average of l.8 yards per play. Meanwhile the Spartans gain ll4 yards at an average of 3.5 yards per play. We gain l28 yards in passing as opposed to 73 yards for Mission Viejo. PRIDE!! 444 BOYS SPORTS 23
