AS TROIANK rqmp 38-Q Aldwin Lance Scores School Record Five TDs BY JOHNNY CRAIG 'Ihe West Brunswick running ganie awoke from its preseason dol drums in impressive fashion last Friday in the Trojans' 38-0, season opening football romp over visiting North Myrtle Beach, S.C. Senior tailback Aldwin Lance scored a school-record five touch downs, including his first on a 66 yard jaunt on the Trojans' opening offensive play of the game. Lance finished with 148 yards on 11 car ries to lead West Brunswick's 269 yard rushing attack. And it was the Trojan defense that was equally impressive, limit ing North Myrtle Beach to minus 32 yards on the ground and 10 yards passing. The West defense was so domi nate that the Chiefs failed to register a first down until the closing minutes on their final possession of the game. "I've never seen a better defense this early in the season," said West Brunswick head coach Marshall Seay. "However, I never really ex pected us to dominate the game de fensively because I saw North Myrtle Beach in a preseason game last week and they attacked the line of scrimmage very hard." Despite its output, Seay was a lit tle hesitant to praise the offensive unit. "It's hard to evaluate our offense. I do feel as though the offensive line did a little better than our last scrim mage against East Duplin a week ago. Lance scored on the first play of the game so what can you say." The first Trojan score came on a counter-gap play made famous by the Washington Redskins and first used during the days of former Super Bowl MVP John Riggins. "We set the counter play up with our power side of the offensive line and it was good for us all night long. When you've got a player the size of Tony Caison (6-3, 291) pulling all the way down the line and Daniel Russ (6-4, 225) right be hind him, that's a lot of weight moving to the weak side of the de fense." "By and large, I was very proud of the effort. The kids worked hard and have worked hard all preseason. This is an emotional ball team. They don't show it with a lot of 'rah, rahs," but when you snap the football they really get alter it." "They all miss George," added Seay, referring to George Daniels, the former football/baseball stand out who was killed in a auto acci dent last May who would have been a senior performer this fall on the Trojan team. "I think they mean it when they say this year's for him." ***** The Trojans stored on every firsl half offensive possession bui one, driving to ihe North Myrtle Beaeh eight-yard line before losing the ball on downs on their only non-scoring scries. Both West Brunswick offense and defense scored in the first half piling up a 32-0 lead at the break. Lance scored the second of his record five touchdowns with 1:30 to play in the opening period to give the Trojans a 12-0 lead. The drive began on the Chief 31 yard line after Jim Grisscu inter cepted quarterback Matthew Palm er's third pass of the game. Following Lance's 24-yard spurt up the middle, the senior speedster scored on ihe next play on a seven yard burst. West Brunswick's conversion at tempts following touchdowns failed all night. The Trojans two-point conversion run and pass on the first two scores bolh failed and West was equally ineffective on extra-point kicks. Grisscu returned a North Myrtle Beach punt to the Chief 20- yard line to give the Trojans excellent field position on their next posses sion. Lance covered the entire 20 yards himself on the two-play scoring drive including an eight-yard run on the first snap and Ihen getting his third touchdown on a 12-yard dash with 10:30 to play in the half. Linebacker Konme Bradley re covered a North Myrtle Beach fum ble three plays later to set up the next West Brunswick score. Bradley recovered Anthony Gore's miscue at the Chief 24 and five plays later Lance waltzed into the end zone from two yards out to give West Brunswick a 24-0 advan tage with six minutes left in the half. North Myrtle Beach mishandled the ensuing Trojan kickoff and was forced to start its next (xtssession on its own one-yard line. Three plays later. Palmer was sacked in lite end zone for a safety by Trojan linebacker Daniel Russ and defensive end Lonnie Mitchell to give West Brunswick a 26-0 lead. Another Lance scored the final West Brunswick points of the first half. This time it was Michael Lance, a 175-pound sophomore, re serve tailback, who scored on a three-yard run to give the Trojans a 32-0 lead. Another sophomore, Steve Holmes, ran for 24 yards on the sec ond play of the three-snap drive, to give the Trojans first-and-goal at the Chief three. Engineering the drive was sophomore quarterback Timmy Daniels who entered the game re lieving starter Brian Aldcrson. Dan iels was one of three Trojan quarter backs to see action.
