PAGE 20- PLAINDEALEIt - FRIDAY. JANUARY; U. 1JW4 let's talk WARRIOR continued from page 22 remembers when Fulton would look out his back door and see if he was practicing. McHenry's present coach, Ken Ludwig, now lives in that house. When Morenz does match wits with his neighbor on Saturday, he won't be looking at it as a must win situation. "It could be built up as big grudge match, but it certainly isn't. No matter who wins, it won't be a great satisfaction. If it goes the other way I won't feel awful." The last time Morenz played against his alma mater and Ken Ludwig wai when he was coaching at Lake Zurich. McHenry won that one during a holiday tournament. "It was interesting, being neighbors. But he (Ludwig) didn't feel sorry for us," recalls Morenz. Morenz is modest when he said "I was never a star," playing for Wisconsin. But he was good enough to be honored with the Most Valuable Player award on the Badger squad his senior year. He was noted for being Wisconsin's sixth man - the first man off the bench. He was orginally recruited by Wisconsin to play football. His football career didn't pan out, so he stuck with baseball and basketball after his freshmen year. His first coaching stint was at Milwaukee North High School for one year. He moved on to Lake Zurich for two years. He moved back to Wisconsin and coached at Elkhorn High School. Morenz then decided he was tired of teaching and decided to leave it for business. He ran his own business for five years when he decided to return to teaching and coaching. "I missed it," said Morenz on his decision. "The business was okay, but it was nice to have summers off and I missed the coaching. I was 30 and I looked around, and after all that I found out teaching is what I wanted to do. * . < «. >. "Making that move (out of teaching and coaching) allowed me to be happy in what I'm doing." Morenz coached Deerfield's junior varsitv for two years. PAUL MORENZ After Deerfield's current var­ sity coach, Ron O'Conner, decided to quit coaching, Morenz received the < job. His first Deerfield Warrior team finished with a 13-13 record last season. His current squad is 1-1 in the Central Suburban League North and 8-6 overall. His Warriors are coming off a 52-46 loss to Waukegan West. Morenz expects a pretty close contest between his Warriors and Ludwig's Warriors. Both have similiar characteristics, according to Morenz. Deerfield is led by 6-foot-6 James Johnson at center and 6- foot-5 Jimmy Sandgren. Johnson is averaging 14.0 points and Sangren 15.2. Morenz expects both of his big men to match up well with McHenry's Mark Peterson and Corey Scott. "They key will be the standoff between the other four players. The third, fourth and fifth players will make the difference." Before the Deerfield ct McHenry will have to about Crown-Dundee on The Warriors will travel-'Aiv Carpentersville for another 7:30 ballgame. Crown-Dundee currently rests at the bottom of the Fox Valley Conference with Crystal Lake South with a 1-3 record. i Strategy backfires for Gator coach It isn't often Gary Collins makes a mistake on the basketball floor. His coaching record at Crystal Lake South will attest to that statement. However, the veteran Gator coach made one last Friday night at Buckner Gym that had fans buzzing. It was not only a topic of conversation on Friday night, but also on Saturday morning around the community. With the Gators in a eight point lead at the intermission, they came out in a stall at the beginning of the third period. T^ie, the Warriors were in a zone defense, but it was also true the big guy Mark Peterson was in serious foul trouble at the time. Instead of going toward the basket; the Gators began to pass the ball back arid forth near the center court. The alert Warriors made some steals, and bad passes on the part of the Gators led to the Warriors not only taking the lead, but holding the Gators scoreless during the period. Why he didn't try and get the ball inside in an attempt to get Peterson to foul out of the game still remains a mystery. The stall also took the tempo away from the Gators, and as a result a nice win for the Warriors. It was the first time in Ken Ludwig's memory a team of his held an opponent scoreless in a quarter. On the Sideline4 Dick Rabbitt Mike Shanahan takes his Water Warriors to Rockford Jefferson tomorrow for their invitational meet. Pat Wirtz's Lady Warriors are run­ ning into hard luck. They dropped a game to Jacobs, and then Johnsburg beat them in the last seconds. This week they have powerful Dundee-Crown at home and next week travel to Cary. Congratulations to the junior varsity Rassling Warriors. They won their own invitational last Saturday, defeating a tough Crown-Dundee team for the title. Tomorrow night should be a big night for Warrior basketball , fans. Former Warrior great, Paul Morenz will bring hi* Deerfield Warriors to Buckner Gym. It won't be the first time he has coached against his alma mater. The Warriors, years ago, played in the Lake Zurich Tournament while Paul was coach at Lake Zurich. But it will be the first time he appeared in McHenry as a high school coach playing against his old school. Paul led the North Suburban Con­ ference in his senior year, scoring 326 points to nose out his old rival, Roger Eckert of Woodstock by a siAgle point. The Warriors tied for fifth with Dundee, while Palatine won the conference with a 12-2 record. One of those Palatine losses came from McHenry, with Morenz scoring 23 points. He had games of 31 points against Zion, 32 against Barrington and 38 against Crystal Lake. The 38 points still stands as a school record for a varsity player at McHenry High School. Paul went on to Wisconsin on a football scholarship. After getting his numeral as a freshman he trotted over to the fieldhouse where history was made. In Paul's own words, "I was too small and slow to play Big 10 football." Pat Richter was on a basketball scholarship, so the coaches made a trade - Paul to basketball and Rick to foot­ ball. Trading scholarships just isn't done every day in big time college athletics. A lot of schools call their fans the sixth man, but the Wisconsin Badgers had an original in Paul Morenz. His senior year, he came off the bench to win three games in the final seconds against Marquette, Iowa and Indiana. For his performance on and off the court, he was named Most Valuable Player in basketball. He lettered three years in baseball and two in basketball. He batted .325 and hit four homeruns in his final baseball season. It is ironic that his last shot in a basketball game defeated Purdue, and on his last time at bat as a Badger he hit a homerun against - you guessed it, Purdue. He was named Athlete of the Year after his senior seasons at Wisconsin. So it is fitting this week down memory lane to honor our good friend Paul, with box scores of his record setting per­ formance for fthe Warriors against Crystal Lake, wjay back in 1962. We wish him all the luck, but not tomorrow night.

Information on league fees and starting schedules will be available at that time. Monday, April 23 will begin the registration for those teams which meet the 80 percent corporate city limit residency. Any remaining openings will be figed j^gipmng April 30 for tho^e tearh^ that can meet the minimum 60 percent McHenry High School district residency requirements. All registrations will be handled by the Parks and Recreation Department located in the city hall offices. Other adult softball leagues playing on city of McHenry facilities (which primarily in­ cludes: men's competitive 12- inch and the women's 16-inch leagues) must have all teams meet the minimum 60 percent McHenry High School district residency requirements. Teams participating in those leagues will continue to register as they have in the ;past with their league officials. However, those teams failing to comply- with the 80 percent corporate city limit residency policy will also be assessed the 75 dollar Tax Equalization Fee. In addition to the change in residency policies for 1984, no adult softball league will be scheduled to play on Sundays. Merkel explained why Sundays were eliminated from the schedule, "By freeing up Sun­ days, it allows the city to use the softball diamonds for alternate scheduling for rain make-ups and play-offs, along with relieving the pressure on outside tournaments to be completed before city leagues must play, which has oeen a big prdbrem in the past." These policies were adopted in October by the McHenry City Council. The adoptions should allow plenty of time for teams to make adjustments within their team rosters prior to the registration dates in the Spring of 1984. The changes mav cause some complications for a few teams, but Merkel expects to see little change. "I know some of the teams will have to make ad­ justments within their team roster in order to meet the new residency rules, I really don't forsee too many other changes within the leagues themselves." Any further questions regarding the policy changes can be answered by the department of Parks and Recreation by calling them Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. at 344-3300.

The host Scots dropped p 79-75 Skyway Conference game to Lake County, but it was chalked up as a moral victory by first- year coach Mike Capaccio. "We're happy. You always like to win and this is another mark in the loss column, but at least it wasn't by 60 points," Capaccio said. -"The guys played hard and played well." Lake County routed MCC by 60 points last year. The Scots led 61-60 with seven minutes left, but free throws )k their toll. Lake County canned 10 straight from the charity stripe to close the game. "It was back and forth, but they hit their free throws. We played pretty well in the first half, but it came down to free throws and they made theirs,"' Capaccio said. The loss, MCC's second straight, dropped the Scots' overall record to 1-7.
