Shamrocks Drop Third Game To Jackson 22*0 North Liberty's Shamrocks were handed their third defeat of the 1967 season Friday night as they fell to Jackson’s Tigers by a 22-0 score. The game, played on Jackson’s Fi- Id, found the Shamrocks switching positions in the first half to try and find a combination after quarterback Bruce Summerfield was injured about halfway through the first period. This effected play somewhat, certainly causing some tense moments for corn h Norm Schmid and his Shamiocks.

After picking up -n- first down, the Shamrocks offense was also stopped and Bill Albeits punted dead on the Jackson 34 yard line. From this point, the Tigers startl'd their first touch own drive of the night. On a play in this series, Summerfii Id tar kit'd Jackson s Kim Stickley and was stunned, forcing his removal from the game with the head injury. The Tigers moved on down the field 66 years in all for the score with a Dave petty pass t« John Shade covei mg the final 27 yards for the score. Craig Morton kicked the extra point an i the Tigers led 7-0 with 4 25 left to play in the opening quarter. The Shamrocks then went with Wes Peterson at quarterback after Summerfield's injury, but the attack just couldn't get moving. After an exchange of punts, the Shamrocks were backed deep in their own territory as play moved into the second quarter. On the second play of the second period, Peterson was tackled in his own •nd zone Jackson’s John Botnh The safety came with just 45 seconds gone in the second period. This was the second safety of the year against Peterson and the Shamr-xks and both had disasterous effects. The following kick from the 20 found Stickley getting the ball on his own 39 yard line. A cut to the left and burst of speed and the fleet Jackson back was on his way as he raced 61 yards for th«score.
