dropped by defending league champion Longhorns in a semi final playoff upset the previous week by defeating Kaspers 38 in the championship game of the Georgelown Men Flag Football League played Sunday at Georgetown and District High School mam field The game was close through the first half of play with the Dawgs leaving the field just slightly ahead 1514 at the break The cold damp windy weather played a major factor in the game basically before the contest even started Kaspers took the wind to start the championship tussle but despite two long touchdown pitches from quarterback Mitch LeBlanc were never really able to establish any kind of domination as witness the half time 1514 lead took the wind in the se half and this combined with their faceted offence ran over and through an undermanned Kaspers squad onl nine players away the win The dtdn use their no hud die offense in the league s deciding match but once again pivot John spread the scoring throughout his lineup while also scampering for one major and keeping the Kasper s defence off balance with the threat of his runn ing For some strange reason at the Kaspers helm decided to throw long into he teeth of the increasingly wind in the second and a crucial inlercep lion by the Dawgs Mike Delguidise which led to a touchdown proved the losers doing was almost a repeal of the 1989 league championship game when the bowed to the Longhorns after forsaking the short passes for hell bent for glory long bombs Brad Ferguson had two touchdowns for the Dawgs Pat scored a touchdown and a twopoint convert Dve Clements scored a major Wayne Stasuihs had three points for the winners Al snared a two- point convert while Frank Bruno rounded out the Dawgs scoring by kicking a convert As he has all year Stephan Roy once again proved his worth to Kaspers in the losing cause Roy scored two touchdowns ad ded a twopoint convert and also a pass Louis DePaoli scored a touchdown and added a two point convert to round out
