But that mm ran nearly equalled the rushing yardage for the Tigers of 79 yards for the entire game. On their first poaseasion, [he Lions managed a 46-yard pass to Barry King, followed by a John Coble field goal, piey then forced a fumble by split end Don Leet and tried a Hay that waa to surprise Georgetown twice: a reverse :o flanker Chris Watts, who ran 16 yards for a touchdown. Watts later managed a 14 yard touchdown with 6:48 left n the game on the same play. The Lions went for their victory without their leading runner, Kenny Phillipa, who was injured the week before. Following an interception by it Catawba linebacker, Phillips threw such a hard jackle that he broke the Mitchell, who ran 7? yards on 14 carrier "We didn't have our outside speed," said Gibeoo, "and that was evident as the game went alone." James Miller scored a touch down from two yards out. Georgetown had an ex cellent passing game themselves, racking up 237 yards through the air. Quarterback Dennis Ash worth threw two touchdown passes to speedy tint hark Scoot Smith, of 33 and 48 yards. "No defense likes to have those big plays run against them," said Coach Gibson. "No coach likes to have them happen, either. But we benefited from their fumbles. We recovered five out of their six. We also set up two touchdowns by runbacks ? Steve Campbell ran back a quick kick 30 yards and Mark Janes ran back a punt 44 yards." The victory keepe Mars Hill squarely in the race for the NAIA national playoffs, although two tough games remain. "A win this week over Newberry," said Gibson, would insure us of no worse than a second-place finish in the conference." Two teams from each of the four conferences are chosen for the playoffs. If the Lions make it, they will probably have to play the one team that has beaten them this year: Presbyterian College. This weekend, during the halftime intermission of the Newberry game, there will be an Old-timers Reunion.

Falcons Defeat Patriots In Overtime if West Henderson's Falcons eked out a 7-0 victory over the Madison Patriots last Friday night in overtime in a Little MAC conference game played at the local stadium before a shivering and sparce crowd. The offense of both teams was as cold as the weather as the Falcons and ' Patriots sputtered between the 30-yard lines for the major part of the game. At halftime each team had been able to make but one first down. The Patriots held a 141-48 edge in total yardage but were unable to score. In the second quarter Mike Hensley, the Patriots' leading ground gainer, brought the local fans to their feet when he ran 2S yards into the end zone for a touchdown but the run was nullified by a clipping penalty. Most of the game was played in Falcon territory with the Patriot defense constantly choking down a weak offense by the visitors. Leading the defense were Greg Meadows, Lome Maxwell, Lee Hoffman, Steve Adams and Jim Huffman. Kevin Barnette and Mike Hensley were the leading offensive players for the Patriots. In the fourth period Bar nette picked up a Falcon punt and ran S3 yards into the end zone but again, the Patriots were guilty of clipping and with 6:06 left in the game, neither team threatened. With 4:14 remaining, the Patriots tried a one yard, fourth down play deep in Falcon territory but were stopped for no gain as Madison's last hope faded away. The final buzzer sounded with the team teams scoreless, necessitating overtime. After a coin toss, won by the Falcons, the ball was placed on the 10-yard line with the Falcons having four downs to score. The first attempt was stopped when the Patriot defensive line stopped Jeff Lemmons cold for a yard loss. The second attempt, Lem mons gained three yards to the Patriot 3 yard line. Third attempt the Falcons were driven back to the 8-yard line but on the final attempt, Ryan Allison, Falcon quarterback, rambled through the center of the Patriot line on what ap peared to be a broken play to score the game's only touch down. Mike Holden's placement for the extra point was good, and the Falcons took a 7-0 lead. t The Patriots, however, had an opportunity to do something from the 10-yard line on four downs. The Falcons stopped the First two plays for no gain. On the third play, Barnette rammed through the Falcon line to the half yard stripe. With one play remaining, the Patriots were penalized five yards for delay of game; on the second attempt, the Patriots were again penalized Ave yards for illegal procedure. In the lqst play , with the ball on the Falcon 10 yard line, the Falcons in tercepted a Patriot pass in the end zone to end the game, Riving the Falcons the 7-0 victory.
