Falcons Edge Shamrocks On Kickoff Return Toni Moore ran the second half kickoff back 82 yards for a touchdown and this turned out to be the only scoring in the annual John Glenn-North Liberty football game Friday night. The speedy senior gathered the ball in at his own 18 yard line and broke through the wall of would be tacklers around the 30, veered to his left and the foot race was on. No one was to catch Moore once he got the open field ahead of him. This runback was about all the offense generated by the Falcons in this game as once again their strong point was the defense. The Shamrocks litterally pushed Glenn all over the field, but on the crucial fourth down plays time and time again the Falcons would rise to the occasion. The win was the fourth in six outings for the Glenn boys and they arc 2-1 in the conference. Meanwhile the Shamrocks record slipped to 1-5 and they arc winless in three in conference play. The Shamrocks haven’t been blown out of any game this season, but just can’t get the big play when they need it to get that victory.

Glenn kicked off and North Liberty failed to get a first down and punted, what was to be their only punt of the game. Moore returned this punt to his own 46 where the Falcons had great field position but after getting two first downs and moving to the North Liberty 31, a fumble was covered by the Shamrocks Ed Swovcrland to stop this drive. The Big Green rolled to a couple of first downs themselves, getting a lot of yardage and being hurt sever ly by a 15 yard holding penalty near the Falcon goal line. Tim Shreve broke a 28 yard play and Jeff Martin a 33 yarder in this drive as their line was blowing Glenn out and the runners were using their blockers well to move deep in Falcon territory. However, after the penalty, they finally turned the ball over at the Falcon 12 on downs. Once again Glenn popped two first downs as it looked as if their running game might be going good, only to again have that costly fumble take the ball away from them, this time Lonnie Shetler covered the free ball for North Liberty. This time the Shamrocks couldn’t get a first down and turned the pigskin over on the Falcon 38. Glenn then fumbled the ball away again on third down, once more setting the Shamrocks in fine field position at the Glenn 44, first and 10. From here they started pounding it out. Mark Romwalter hit for two six yard carries and a first down. (continued on page 7)
