lost lor the fourth straight time
while extending its WC losing
streak u> 15 games. The Scorpions'
last league win came in a 14-12
edging oi West Columbus on Sept.
X 1989.
"I'm iiist really disappointed,"
said North Brunswick head coach
(iary Baldwin. "I'm not sure exact
ly how we can turn this team

that bad ii would be one thing, but I
don't believe we are ;ls bad as some
ol our past scores indicate."

ready tor West Columbus next week

effort. We were down coming into
this game alter the two straight loss
es. We've been getting some good
weeks of practice but just a break
here and a break there have been re
