J. / i ' • I 1 . Perfect 'New Season' Two weeks ago, the Johnsburg volleyball team had a meeting and decided that October would be the start of their new season. So far, the new season for Kathy Bull's Skyhawks has been exceptional to say the least. Since October, Johnsburg ^boasts a 6-0 record, a 2-0 mark in the SHARK con- ^ ference, and a first place . finish in the Zion-Benton Tournament. • The ^latest of the „ Skyhawks' triumphs came when they put it offensive HARK con- Hononegah , 11-15, and . rvery tired and drained emotionally after all the playing we did in the last 30 hours," said Bull. "We went all out ta^win that Tuesday tournament (Zion-Benton) and we started off by playing the best team in the con­ ference. We just weren't up for the game at the start." But being up or not, Johnsburg came out and played powerful volleyball in the first of the three sets. Theresa Hauck served the Skyhawks to a 3-0 lead with the help of spikes of Sue Dehn and Diane Heard.1 Patti Haag then served Johnsburg to a 8-1 lead again with help from Heard spikes. Hononegah gained on the Skyhawks cutting the score 11-7, but then Norine feill came on to serve nsburg to its victory. 5T the second set, the Skyhawks jumped out to a 4- 1 lead on a couple of ace serves by Heard. Hononegah came back, however, by taking advantage of errors and mental breakdowns to Here Friday The McHenry Warriors fresh from a thrilling victory over Cary Grove last weekend 18-14 will host the Dundee Cardunals in the annual homecoming game tonight at McCracken field. The Warriors and Coach Joe Schlender are confident that this is the year to break the jinx of 12 years for a ' Warrior homecoming victory. The Warriors better not take the Cards for granted. New coach Gene Mitz, former assistant at Nor­ thwestern university has brought the passing game to Dundee this year. The Cards are 1-2 in the Fox Valley having suffered a 35-13 defeat at the hands of Crystal Lake Central last Saturday. The Cards are led by field general Pat Carroll, a 6'1", 170 pounder who keeps the ball in the air on the average of three of four downs this season. His top receiver is senior split end Dave Fielding, a 5'11", 160 pounder. The Cards have another threat in former quarterback Dave Elkins, who last week threw a touch­ down pass on the old flea flicker. The Card line is average, with only two linemen at 200 lbs. With the Warriors using the pass, and Dundee likewise, it could be quite a aerial circus tonight. Be prepared for alot of fireworks and plenty of action. Homecoming always draws a large crowd, and With the Warriors tied for first place, McCracken field should be really jumping tonight. Hope to see a lot of you fans in attendance. Dick Rabbitt lead in the contest 13-10. Johnsburg scored only once more jn the set as the Indians wpnjt on to win 15-11 and mare it one game apiece. In the deciding set, once again it was Heard's serving that staked Johnsburg to an ly 4-1 lead. The Skyhawks received a lift from eri . Kofler who ckhanded two kill spikes the early going to silence ononegah's front line. With the game tied up at 7- 7, Dehn took charge by serving eight straight points giving Johnsburg its victory. Dehn had help from Kofler and Heard, but it was O'Neill that blocked two Hononegah spikes and tipped the ball over the net enabling Johnsburg to •take the match. ^ "This has got to be the most turned around team that I've ever played against," said Hononegah coach Sherry Diamond. Earlier in the year, Johnsburg lost in straight at Hononagah 15-6 and 15-9. "We're really looking forward to a strong finish this year^" said Bull. "We played badly early in the season and we accepted that. Now we decided that we want to play as good as we can in our new season. We've forgotten the past." Johnsburg is now 2-3 in the SHARK conference and has an overall record of 11-6. "If we can get a couple of days of rest to just sit back and enjoy what we've done, we'll be fine," concluded Bull. "But we've beeivso busy that we haven't h£a the time to look at our winns and enjoy them." The Skyhawks will have that opportunity to rest as their next scheduled game isn't until Tuesday, Oct. 20 when they host Harvard in a 6:00 p.m. game.
