Wawasee completely dominated the Tigers — no. I believe ‘controlled’ in a better word. Wawasee compiled 226 yards rushing while Warsaw had -23. The Warriors had 16 first downs and held Warsaw to two. Jeff Miller took the opening kick-off for Wawasee and ran the ball from the 15 to the 49 yard line. It looked as if they were ready to move, but the Warriors came up short. On fourth down and five they punted to Warsaw. The Tigers, however, only had the ball momentarily as Wawasee senior Rick Dahlstrom snagged an interception off quarterback Rocky Goshert on the Warsaw 21 yard line. The Warriors moved in. and on a 12yard pass from quarterback Mark Smith, senior Dave Woilman tallied the first score of the evening with 8:13 on the dock.

about the Tiger 40. Unfortunately Wawasee was caught behind the line for big losses and was forced to punt. Later in the period Warsaw took possession on its own 30. On the first play Ralph Reiff intercepted Rocky Goshert’s pass and darted 40 yards to score Wawasee’s third touchdown with 3:32 on the clock The kick after was wide to the left Warsaw tried in vain to move against a tough Warrior defense but finally had to punt again. Wawasee started its Aive on the Tiger 38 and moved to the 17 yard line as the third period ended with the tribe ahead, 20-0. As the Warriors progressed to the 15 yard line they were called for offensive holding and moved back to the 30. Rick Dahlstrom took the hand-off and dashed into the end zone for a TD, but the score was nullified by an offsides call. Two plays later Mark Smith was right on target to Gary Dean in the end zone — unfort inately the pass was dropped. Another three plays elapsed before Rick Dahlstrom ran four yards for a well-deserved score with 9:46 left in the game. PAT honors went to Ralph Reiff. Wawasee led 27-0. The remaining minutes of the game were besieged by a flock of penalty flags. As the last seconds were ticking off the clock, the Warrior reserves moved the Tiger eight yard line They were penalized 15 yards for offensive holding as the final gun went off. Senior fullback Rick Dahlstrom carried the ball 19 times for a total of 132 yards — Good job! Also making fine carries were Ralph Reiff, four for 31 yards, and Jerry Yoder, five for 29 yards. The offense looked impressive as it ran over and through the Tigers’ defensive line. Impressive though the offense was. it was out-shown by the defensive unit. It pushed Warsaw back for -23 yards rushing, and any team able to hold an opponent to negative yardage deserves a lot of credit.
