Skyhawks Miss PAT'S; Found Running Game MIKE LAMB In the last two games, the John- sburg Skyhawks have learned painfully that just scoring touchdowns isn't enough to win a ballgame -- the point after touchdown has to be made also. Last week, the Skyhawks lost to Grant 14-12. An extra point of some kind could have made things dif­ ferent. This week the Skyhawks take on the Wauconda Bulldogs. - The Bulldogs registered a big victory over Lake Zurich last week; 25-12. Wauconda is now 2-3 overall and 1-2 in the Northwest Suburban Con­ ference. Johnsburg, meanwhile, has not won a game. If anything was gained from last week's loss to Grant, according to Johnsburg coach, Randy Oberembt, it is confidence in the running game. After mediocre rushing per­ formances in past games, the Skyhawks running crew racked up 282 yards. Fullback, Jim Bentz, broke a school record with 207 yards on 23 carries. "Now we have confidence in our ning game and that's going to elp," said Oberembt. While Johnsburg finally found its running game, Oberembt says Wauconda is a fine running team also. "They are a running team, but they do throw the ball deep occasionly," he said. "They have a great quarterback in Guss Gasparic. They had a great game against Lake Zurich." The fact that the Bulldogs keep the ball on the ground the majority of the time, but will come out throwing ever so often, will make it hard to defense against says Oberembt. As far as size goes, Oberembt says his teamr stacks up well with them. The Skyhawks have experienced heartbreaking losses\the last couple weeks and OberembtAknows why. "I think we made some critical mistakes when we are at excellent field position. We have taken ourselves out of scoring positic Oberembt says his team is healthy, both physically and in attitude. "We're fortunate our players believe in each other and what they are doing." WINNING COUPLE -- Kurt McCormick, the pro at Chapel Hill Country Club, presents Carol and Dick Zimmer with the winning trophy for scoring the low net score during the Chapel Hill couples championship. ' STAFF PHOTO--WAYNE GAYLORD. Zimmer's Win Couples Title A one over par 141 captured the low net couples club championship at Chapel Hill Country Club last Sunday. Dick Zimmer shot a low net 66, while his wife Carol carded a 75 to win the first place trophy by four strokes over their nearest couple. A pair of 145's turned in by Dick and Claire Rosing and Lloyd and Dori Freund had these two couples head for the first tee in a sudden death battle. The 393 yard par four hole was as far as they had to venture, as the Rosing's settled the playoff by a stroke. Finishing fourth, were the team of Wayne Gaylord and Theresa Schroeder with a combined score of 147. It was a three way tie for fifth, as Frank and Laura Schmitt, Don and Lucy Prouty and Darian and Karen Hussissean all carded 148. Individual low net for the men were Zimmer at 66, Rosing at 68, with Bill Tonyan, Jerry Hogan and Gaylofd at 69. Dori Freund was low net for the ladies with 72, followed by Schmitt and Hussissian with 74 and Prouty and Zimmer with 75. Although the golfers did not have to fight difficult pin placements as they did in the Labor Day club cham­ pionship, mother nature was not on their side this day. The promised temperature of 67 never made its appearance at Chapel Hill. The beautiful fall colored leaves did arrive and they let their presence be known as they added to the contest; playing a game of hide and seek with numerous golf balls. After a sit down dinner, awards were presented and the first 11 teams received gift certificates. Trophies for the individual club championships (see Plaindealer sport page of Sept. 10) were also awarded. The final presentation of the evening was for most improved golfer. Ron Johnson captured the men's division as he improved from 22 to 17. With an improvement of nine strokes (40-31) Suzanne Beam won the ladies class. Verse Tells The Story Of Seaton Just before the first and only cross country home meet of the season, Coach Bill Hutchinson handed me a program. I turned the front cover and the first page was a dedication. It said, "This prograip is dedicated to Donald E. Seaton, former cross country coach at McHenry High School." It then tola who he was and what sports he coached. But at the bottom of the page, there was a verse. It stated, "No man stands as tall as when he stoops to help a boy." That verSfe caught my attention and I wanted to find out more about Seaton and how that verse was connected with him. I met with Seaton after school in his classroom. Seaton graduated from LaSalle-Peru High School in 1944 and joined the navy while the war was still going on. After he served his country, Seaton entered a junior college in LaSalle and played football. He then transferred to Illinois State University where he continued to play football and graduated with a B.S. degree. He found his first teaching job at LaRose High School, which had an enrollment of 44 students. He taught everything under the sun and coached baseball, basketball and started the school's first track team. With some volunteer help, Seaton constructed a track. His wife helped him construct and paint the hurdles. LaRose wasn't exactly the type of school to build a career, so he moved on to East Alton High school. He taught math, coached a football team that went undefeated and went to school for his master's at the University of Illinois. With a degree in administration, Seaton was able to set a iob as principal at Buda. But. tragedy struck. Heart problems developed and the doctor advised him to get away from the tensions and go back to teaching and coaching. Fox Lake High School was his next stop. He taueht math and was the line coach for the football team. However, a referendum to pay teachers more failed, so he and his wife decided to look for a iob in a community where he could raise a family. They found such a job in a town called McHenry. In 1958, Seaton started teaching math and coached football at McHenry High School. Track was dropped during World War II, so Seaton and Hutchinson decic program again. And in 1' needed for the cross country was nominated. "My first year, we won four dual meets my second year we didn't win any meets," said Seaton. "My third year, we did a lot better. The next year, nobody expected us to do well and we to start up the a coach was d Seaton Sport Talk Mike Lamb Sports Editor won all our dual meets. We won the county meet, conference, district and placed 14th at Champaign in the state meet. "The next year we did the same, except we didn't go to state. At the sectionals, we placed fourth or fifth and they only took the top three teams. "The next year I had a chance to be an assistant principal and I left the team with Hutch. He always says I never left him anything, but I left him a lot -- my son. I really wanted to keep on coaching," said Seaton. At the beginning, coaching cross country was a learning experience for Seaton. Hutchinson and he went to clinics, read books and talked with other coaches. He also realized, he hac' get his boys running in August, instead September. His hard work paid off. He turned cr< country into a popular sport in McHenry frc a "boring sport" it was in the past. "We had 40-45 kids coming out f crosscountry. When you have that kind numbers out, you're going to have a pretty g< team. How did he get 40-45 boys to come out f cross country? + "I did a lot of different things," said Seat* "I had them over to eat. My wife made top h; for the top seven. If they stayed, in the seven, they kept the hats. I had the 10,000 m club and I gave them T-shirts. "They had a small stand at West Campus th served popcorn and soda, but nobody wanted work at it. So we did it. We made $2d0 to $f "The biggest thing had to be ihpnumber girls that helped me. They woukpgo to all » meets and would be stationed along the cour And I think the boys tried harder." Seaton added, "I guess we kinda got the sps - eoing.." His days as football line coach were a worth remembering. In 1961, the team went: 1 and captured the conference crown. Only points were scored against them. The n< spring, however, they found out one of t players was ineligible to play that season. The last sport he coached was girls' track found out I didn't have the energy anymore said Seaton. "Spring is the worst time of : year for a sport, it's just lousy weather, c and wet. He went on, "I guess I 'm getting old S decided to let somebody else do the coachir Seaton is now retired from coaching, h continues to teach math at East Campus . How that verse is connected with Seaton. i; lot clearer now "No man stands as tall as when he stoops help a boy." Volleyball Skyhawks Lose In Three JOHNSBURG - The Johnsburg girls' volleyball team hosted con­ ference opponent Lake Zurich on Tuesday. *> Johnsburg lost the match in three games and this loss drops the Skyhawks to 7-4 in conference play and 9-5 overall. The Skyhawks came on strong in the second game and had an easy time with the Bears.

In game two, the tables turned and Johnsburg ended up on the on the short end of a 15-10 romp. The Skyhawks sets were good, Dut its spikes went into the net or sailed out of bounce. Heard led the Skyhawks with only three serves. The lake Zurich squad kept its momentum flowing and Johnsburg just couldn't get it going. Johnsburg lost the third game 15-9. Theresa Hauck led the Skyhawk club with 13 spikes, six kills, three blocks and two saves. Warriors Win Again The McHenry girls' volleyball team won its second conference match in a row of the season, defeating Crystal lake Central 15-13 and 15-10. The Warriors are now 4-9 in the Fox Valley Conference and 2-8 overall. According to Warrior coach, Pam Shaffer , McHenry had a 12-1 lead in the first game and hung on to win. Chris Sowiak led the Warriors in scoring with 10 points and Andee Norton scored nine. Schaffer was pleased with the Warrior performance. "Andee Norton did a terrific job around the net. All of them played really well. They varied their defense, to go along with Crystal lake Central's varied offense."
