Bucks Burn Devils 21-0
By Mike Steadman
Things were a little too hot for the
lied Springs Red Devils at Hoke High
Stadium Monday night as the Bucks
sparked just enough to burn them 21
-0.
Hoke gathered an impressive 2S7
yards on the ground with Allen
Thomas picking up 115 of them in
21 carries. Vernon Morrison aided
the attack with 69 yards in only
seven carries.
Joe Poole hit on seven of 18 passes
for a year high of 11S yards, but
many passes were dropped that were
on target.
"It wasn't even a good Monday
night practice as far as Hoke
execution was concerned," said Hoke
High Coach Bill Cameron.
"It was a win, but as far as getting
something done, we didn't
accomplish too much," he said.
Cameron was disturbed with the
fact that the game was called off
twice before it was finally played
Monday night.
"They called it off too many
times. How can the kids get up for a
game when you call it off twice?"
Cameron asked.
"I was not tire one who called it
off," he said.
The game started with Red Springs
winning the toss and took the ball on
their own 34 yard line. On the first
"play from scrimmage, Johnny
Galbreath reeled off II of his 70
yard total for the night for a first
down on their 45 yard line.
On the second play from that
point, Hoke's Paul Jackson recovered
a Red Devil fumble on the 41 yard
line and Hoke took over first and
ten.
Hoke could not muster a drive and
Noah Hendrix punted the ball into
the end zone and gave Red Springs
die ball first down on the 20 yard
line.
Red Springs could not move the
ball and punted to Hoke, who still
could not put an attack together. A
Hoke punt gave the ball to Red
Springs on their 27 yard line.
Reggie McRae recovered a second
Devil fumble on the second play of
tire series, and Hoke had possession
on the Red Springs 20 yard line.
Again Hoke could not take it in
and turned the ball over on downs at
the 14 yard line. A motion penalty
moved die Devils back to the nine
and quarterback Timnty Lowery lost
eight yards on the next play to make
it second and 24 from the one yard
line.
Another Devil fumble gave Hoke
the ball first and goal to go on the
four yard line. Allen Thomas ripped
off three yards and then scored on
the following play from the one.
The extra point was good and with
1:00 showing on the clock, it was
Hoke 7, Red Springs 0.
Red Springs took the ball on their
24 yard line and the quarter ended
with the Devils preparing to punt in a
fourth and inches situation.
Hoke took the ball on the 40 yard
line and Thomas and Morrison went
to work. They combined for a first
down to the Red Springs 48, where
Thomas slipped through for seven
more before he scampered 38 yards
for Hoke's second score of the
evening. The extra point was good by
Ernie Pecora and the Bucks had a
144) lead with 9:20 left in the
quarter.
The ball exchanged hands four
more times in the quarter as neither
team could put together a drive and
the half ended with Hoke enjoying a
14 point advantage.
Hoke took the ball on the kickoff
to start the third quarter, but again
the offense stalled and was forced to
punt to Red Springs.
Fumbles plagued the quarter as it
was turned over by errors three times
as Thomas intercepted a pass and
Keith Floyd recovered a fumble to
stop Devil drives.
Late in the quarter, Hoke took the
ball on their 34 yard line and reeled
off two first downs to put them on
Red Springs' 39 yard line. An
incomplete pass and a holding
penalty made it second and 25 for
Hoke. Poole swept 13 yards to make
it third and 12 on the 42 yard line as
the quarter ended.
Poole celebrated the start of the
fourth quarter with a 30 yard pass to
Vernon Morrison to give Hoke a first
down on the Devil 13 yard line. The
Bucks rammed the ball to paydirt in
five plays with Thomas taking it in
from the one yard line with 9:15
remaining in the game. Pecora made
his third extra point of the game for
a 214) score.
Late in the fourth quarter, Hoke
stopped the Devils, who had a first
and goal to go on the Hoke six yard
line, to put the game away for the
Bucks.
Hoke got the ball on their one
yard line with 1:49 showing and ran
out the clock for the 21-0 victory.
"I'm glad the Red Springs game is
over. Now it's time to play ball.
Whether we will or not, 1 don't
know," said Cameron.
Cameron spotted Poole, Pennell
and Thomas as standouts on offense
and he named Freeman and McRae
for defensive performance.
"I'm looking forward to playing
Sanford. We want to play the best
and that's what we'll be playing -- the
best," he said.
"We used to play them and beat
them. Missouri beat Alabama didn't
they, and Wake Forest beat State,
why can't we beat Sanford?" he
asked.
"We've got two tough games ahead
of us and our players realize it." he
said.
"I've seen Richmond play and
they hit, and I'll have the
opportunity to see Sanford play
Friday night.
They lost a lot of players on
offense, but their defense is supposed
to be stronger," Cameron said.
