SEPTEMBER It! 1984 Sports Rich Ball PSA Professional Sports log Golfing season not quite finished yet Don't Put Your Club6 Away Yet: For some reason, there are a lot of people who think golf season ends on Labor Day. Perhaps it's the onset of football season, the bowling leagues, or even merely the conclusion of the majority of the golf tournaments that causes so many people to put away their clubs. In fact, September and October are two of the best months in this part of the country, to play golf. Obviously the changes in Mother Nature's color is something special on a golf course. Heavily wooded courses can be spec­ tacular. ' Golf course architects and landscape architects oftentimes will design into the various holes particular color schemes that to most aren't obvious during May through August. If you play during the fall, keep an eye open for this sort of thing. While it is true that most of the competitive events are over, there are a number of "fun" events left to be played. Scrambles, Chap- mans, handicap tournaments, and even "goofy golf" can be found almost anywhere. If you think it's too cold, here's a suggestion: investigate the down vests. They will keep you quite warm while still allowing your arms to swing freely. Don't give up on golf just because it's after Labor Day. There are still a lot of great days to play. Next week: Playing a Strange Course. SKYHAWKS Nazareth passes, Mark Majercik being on the receiving end of four of those, to set a new school record. "Our defense took them out of the game," Oberembt said. "They only had six yards rushing the whole first half, and their quarterback completed only two of his first 12 passes," he added. Walk rushed for 105 yards on just 12 carries to lead the Johnsburg ground attack, while Suidak added 44 yards rushing. DuRei was 9-for-23 through the air, throwing for 147 yards. Four of the aerials were caught by x&rewn^foi* a total of 70 yards. THE SKYHAWKS CANNOT, however, rest on their laurels. The Northwest Suburban ; Conference season opens Saturday at home against Lake Zurich, followed a week later by a home contest against defen- from page 20 ding Class 2A champion Marian Central. "That's why this game was so important. We have two games against two great teams coming up. Sizewise, they're a lot bigger than Nazareth. They're the co- favorites in the conference, and we have to play well to stay in the hunt, to get in the first division," Oberembt said. "Lake Zurich is a real powerhouse. We'll need a balanced attack again. We have to throw as well as we did against Nazareth." Oberembt noted the Sky hawks had an improved running game against Nazareth than they did a week earlier against Richmond. "Much better," he said. "But we'll have to play bet­ ter," he added. "We're not quite there yet." The Lake Zurich - Johnsburg game will begin at 2 p.m. Saturday at Johnsburg High School. Moms and Dads!

Rokosz, a freshman, is a graduate of Johnsburg High School. Coach Don Luy feels balance could be the key to success for the men's team. "I can't tell now who our top seven runners are, and may not know until the end of the season," he said. "the team will be very young, but there is good overall ability and I'm optimistic about the season. It should be a team that show steady improvement," he said. Rokosz was a member of the cross-country and track teams at Johnsburg High. Millikin, which opened its season Saturday at Lincoln, will travel to SIU-Edwardsville this Saturday for toe SIU-E Classic. Warrior girl netters tie for iourth at D-C CARPENTERSVILLE - The McHenry Warriors' girls' tennis team brought home a fourth- place finish from the Dundee- i Crown Invitational held Saturday. McHemy tied for fourth with St. Edward, of Elgin, each team with four points. Belvidere won the event with nine. Warrior coach Gary Gray said he was happy with the result. "I'm pleased with how we did. Both doubles teams did real well," Gray said. The number two doubles tandem of Geri Haner and Michelle Landis did ex­ ceptionally well. The Warrior pair claimed their category's championship, downing Dundee- Crown's duo in the first round, 6- 3, 6-1, crushing Belvidere in round two by the same scores, and walloping Schaumburg in the finale, 6-1, 6-2. "They won easily," Gray said of Haner and Landis. "They looked good." McHENRY'S NUMBER ONE PAIR, senior co-captains Sara Bird and Kris Wolff, ripped Jacobs in thfe first round, 6-1,6-0, but ran uj^ ag&nst event champion Conant, 6^ 6-2 "They won big intfe first round," Gray said, "but they had to face a real tough Conant team. Conant won the cham­ pionship match 6-1, 6-1, so Sara and Kris can be pleased." McHenry's - and Gray's - hopes of winning the event were dashed when number one singles player Melissa Rhode was out with bronchitis. "We could have finished higher," Gray said. "But with Melissa out, it was tough. We were hopeful of winning it, but the singles players had to play up. "It was good competition." The Warrior netters added a conference victory over Jacobs Monday to their season record, as they nipped the Golden Eagles 3-2. Haner moved up to number WARRIORS SCHLENDER WAS UPSET, BUT NOT OVERLY so, about the defeat. "Yes, I'm disappointed in the loss, but it doesn't make our season. We have Crystal Lake South at home Friday, and it will be a big game for us, con­ ference-wise." Schlender noted the mistakes and walk-offs didn't help his team. "We were hurt by penalties, especially in the first half when we had a chance to take the lead. OLD STYLE 12PACKH2 0Z.
