IVUiK U vPLAINDKALKR - FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 30.1983 % == If let's' talk 4 Sports McHenry and Central to make amends McCriicken Field could be an ugly site this evening. Two teams that will probably be grumpy, edgy and just plain hungry will be facing each other at 8 p.m. The McHenry Warriors were blown out last Saturday in Algonquin, in a game some thought should have been a win. The Warriors went into the lockerroom at half time the owners of a 12-0 lead. They came back on the field and ive up 27 points in the third lose the game. The Crystal Lake Central Tigers lost a 28-20 thriller to Woodstock, in a game some said was for the Fox Valley Crown. There is no doubt both teams thought they should have won, and both would like to make amends. "I feel the team has reacted well," said Warrior coach Joe Schlender on how his team is responding from last week's loss. "The question is, how is Central reacting? Tliey are coming off a tough loss too. The question is who is going to react better. It's a cnallc to our kids." Preview lenge Bill Mack, coach of the Tigers, disregards the fact his team is a favorite in the FVC race, and the Warriors are more of a darkhorse. Mack's team was in high before the Woodstock defeating Dixon 42-7 uid West Chicago 34-13. "It's no secret that we both have similiar offenses and defenses. It will just get down to a matter of execution," said Mack. "Joe has a good football team. It's a tough league." The Tigers played a different game plan against the Streaks than the two wins. Behind the stron backs of Garett Sasser an Kevin Howard, the Tigers ran a bruising running attack in the wins over West Chicago knd Dixon. Sasser has rushed for 319 yards in the first three games, while rushing for 124 against West Chicago.' --.v Against Woodstock, v the Tigers went more to the air, behind the quarterbacking of 6-foot, 150 pound Todd Howell. Howell has completed 25 passes in 50 attempts for 380 yards and five touchdowns so far this season. His favorite is 6-foot-l, 168 pound Card. Card has caught seven passes for 127 yards against Woodstock. While the Central offense is in high gear, Mack is a little concerned about his defense. "I thought at the beginning of the season, defense would be the biggest concern. It still is. We have A lot of work to do," said Mack. "We average four touchdowns a game, so we are moving the ball a little bit." Schlender knows what his team is facing in the Tigers, but he feels his Warriors can rebound Friday night. "I'm expecting a knock down, hard fought game between two teams. It's going to be interesting," said Schlender. "Going into this season, we wanted to run operation consistency. We showed consistency against Grant successfully. We are going to try to be consistent Friday night. Johnsburg hoping old strategy works By Sam Natrop Shaw-Free Press WOODSTOCK - Randy Oberembt said his team is going to have to rely on an old football stategy that works wonders properly used. still when roperly The other team can't score if they don't have the ball. It sounds rather simple. But it may not be quite as easy when your opponent is Marian Central. "We are definitely looking to ball control as a critical factor," Oberembt, the Johnsburg High School coach, said. "We have to keep the ball out of Chuck's (Hartlieb) hands. If we can do that we'll be in the position to keep the game close." y But keeping the ball out of Hartlieb's hands is something the Hurricanes' opponents have had a tough time doing this season. "They (the 'Canes) deserve the ranking they received - number 1 team in Illinois," Oberembt said. "They don't have and perceivable weakhesses. Marian has a great throwing game and a great running attack. Plus they have tremendous team speed. "There's no question we're the underdog, but our athletes are ready to play." But Johnsburg has been far from an inept team this season.
