Mental Mistakes Make
Buck Win Tougher
Mental discipline is the key to
future victories for the Hoke High
Bucks, Head Coach Tom Jones said
Tuesday.
If the Bucks' offense had had
better discipline and not made
"mental mistakes," three touch
downs scored against South View
last Friday night might not have
been called back, Jones said.
As it was, the Bucks were still
able to earn a victory over the
Tigers, but it took a freak play and
a closing minutes pressure field
goal to garner the 9-6 win.
Although Jones feels the offense
is progressing and played better
Friday than they did a week ago
against Cape Fear, the coach is
hoping to eliminate the costly
mistakes before the Bucks take the
field against 71st here this Friday.
Seventy-First has two of the
state's top offensive players, and
Jones hopes to keep them off of the
field by playing ball control foot
ball.
"Our best defense is going to be
keep our offense on the field,"
Jones said.
Tailback Greg Williams and
flanker Tim Medley are ranked as
two of the top 50 players in the
state, and the Bucks would just as
soon keep their hands off of the
ball.
The Bucks were able to capture
their first victory in almost a year
last Friday after a strange play.
Trailing 6-0, Buck quarterback
John McDuffy tossed an inter
ception to a South View player at
midfield, who fumbled the ball.
Another Tiger player picked up
the loose ball on the 48 yard line
and raced for the end zone. The
only problem was that he ran the
wrong way, crossed the Buck goal
line and placed the ball on the
ground to a victory dance.
Alertly, Olando McKinnon
turned the miscue into a Hoke
touchdown by falling on the loose
ball.

"After having three touchdowns
called back, I didn't care how we
got the ball across the goal line,"
Jones said.
Although kicker Michael Bethea
missed the point after, he came
back and with 5:17 remaining in
the contest, booted a 25 yard field
goal to seal the game.
The Buck defense played well
during the South View game, Jones
said, noting that after the Tigers
initial two possessions, the Hoke
boys kept the opposing team to a
total offense of about 50 yards.
South View rushed for only 54
yards during the game and passed
for another 39 yards.
The Bucks rushed for 143 yards
and picked up 40 yards in the air.
Twelve penalities for 99 yards
didn't help the Buck cause either.
In the first two games of the
season, the Bucks have had four
touchdowns called back and if
things had been different, would
now be 2-0 on the season.
However, they face 71st with a
1-1 record and high hopes for the
future.

they took their characters into
elementary schools in an effort to
bring "Living History" to the
students.
This is the second time Miss

character Miss Jane Pittman to
take to the schools and was cast in
the spring production of "Skin of
Our Teeth". She is a senior
majoring in theatre.
