MCHCWIIY PLAINDEALgR Section A MONDAY. September 14,190S Refe 5 Sports JHS boys 7th at Invite By Plaindaater sports staff WAUCONDA - Bob Texidor would have liked for his Johnsburg boys' cross-country team to do a bit better at the Wauconda Invitational Saturday. About two places better, as a mat- to* of (act. Junior Mark Widhalm finished a strong Uth to pace the Sky hawks to a seventh place finish, but Texidor admits he had his sights set on Johnsburg's neighbor to the south. "I had my heart set on beating McHenry," Texidor said. "But Mc- Henry did a real nice Job, they wore nice and packed in. I was hoping to challenge them a little bit more, but they ran well. McHenry has a nice tradition. We'd like to have that tra dition someday, too." The Skyhawks could indeed have that same type of lineage if runners the likes of Widhalm keep coming along. The Skyhawks' No. 1 man covered the three-mile spread in 16:41, good for 11th among the approximately 100 runners. Ed Nichols was next, taking 36th in 17:22. Freshman Matt Hennigan was right behind, grabbing 37th in 17:23. BUI Meyer continued his im provement, taking 57th in 18:12, while Brett Bartkoske was 64th (18:22), Brian Berndt 70th (18:34) and John Hernandez 75th (18:47). Johnsburg finished with 205 points. The meet's winner was York- ville. Johnsburg's fellow Northwest Suburban Conference member Grant was an impressive second with 108. "Grant was a bit of a surprise," allowed Texidor. "They really ran pretty well." Grant's Randy Dawson was sev enth, while Grayslake, also of the NWSC, had Carl Wismer finish fourth. Another Grant runner was 10th, while another Grayslake harri er finished right behind Widhalm in 12th place. "Mark still has a good shot at the conference title," Texidor said. "By the end of the year, it will be a real dose fight. "All in all, ttie team did pretty well," Texidor continued. "Brett Bartkoske is a fellow who came in with little training, and continues to improve. Bill Meyer is old reliable. "1 was really impressed with the desire on the part of our guys. They really wanted to go for it. Every one of them, without exception, decided to go for it, regardless of how things turned out Tfiey were tight early and wanted to sustain a pack. I give them credit for trying it If they can stick a bit more together..." Johnsburg's three-member girls' squad continued to improve as well. The trio, all underclassmen, was led by Jenny Baehne. The freshman fin ished 31st in 12:49 over the 2.1 mile layout. Lisa Nunamaker topped fel low sophomore Tammy Policky, fin ishing 43rd to Policky's 46th, with times of 13:03 and 13:06, respectively. "They were really bundling it," Texidor said. "Only 17 seconds apart. That's pretty good for three runners. I've been after Lisa to catch up to the other two, and she did it Saturday. They worked well together. "We've still got a long way to go," Texidor said. "But we're showing progress. And I'm very happy with that." Gridiron Glimose D-C stuns Jacobs, 7-6 ALGONQUIN -- Junior James Haywood rushed 31 times for 86 yards and scored Dundee-Crown's only touchdown as the Chargers rolled to a 7-6 upset win of previously unbeaten Jacobs. "This was a super win for us," said an elated Charger head coach Bob Carlson. "What can you say? Jacobs has a fine team. We knew it would be a tough game and it was." In a fourth down and six situation from the Jacobs' 33-yard line, Charger junior Ed Hernandez came flying off the left side of the line to block an Alex Dubovic punt. Brian Proctor recovered the loose ball for Dundee-Crown just outside the Golden Eagle 30 and returned the ball to the 22, thereby paving the way for the Chargers to break the scoreless deadlock. Haywood's four-yard sprint to the right side gave the Chargers a 64) lead with 5:31 left to play in the fourth quarter, and Tom Smith's extra point provided the visitors with a seven-point cushion, all they would need. With 2:35 left, Jacobs' Dan Hochel scored on a one-yard plunge. Golden Eagle head coach Ron Eliett decided to go for the win, but quarterback Pat Arnold was stopped short of the goal line to preserve the D-C win. "Give them all the credit," Eliett said, in refernce to Dundee-Crown. "They deserved to win. They were well prepared for us. They stopped us offensively all game long. "I don't think we were as prepared as we could have been. We didn't get the job done. It's tough to lose close games especially since we've lost eight in a row in the Fox Valley. "And now we have a tough week ahead of us with Woodstock coming IV," Eliett said. Both teams are 2-1. LZ blitzes Marengo LAKE ZURICH -- Marengo's Indians simply could not get anything going offensively and fell 19-2 to Lake Zurich in their Northwest Suburban Conference opener for both teams. Marengo's only points came on a fourth-quarter Lake Zurich safety. "We've been pretty high the first two weeks. We were just not ready to play football today. We just have to adjust and regroup," Marengo Coach Kelly Camp said. The loss dropped Marengo's record to 1-2, 0-1 in the Northwest Suburban. LZ is 2-1,1-0. The Indians were coming into jthe contest off two solid performances by the defense. After losing to Harvard 7-0, the Indians topped Sandwich 14-6 and the defense surrendered just two touchdowns fen* the eight quarters. The host Bears allowed Marengo 46 yards in total offense for the first half, unofficially 75 for the game. The Indians' efforts on offense were hampered by four turnovers - three interceptions and a fumble. * Lake Zurich gained 14 first downs to nine for Marengo.. state Farm Medicare Supplement insurance* It can pay some charges Medicare doesn't CALL: KHNIS CONWAY 3319 W.

Such was the case for Johns burg's boys' cross-country team, which opened the Northwest Sub urban Conference season with a 20-41 whipping of Wauconda at Glacial Park Thursday. Crystal Lake South edged out the Sky hawks, 2S-34, in the other part of the meet Smith's Pat Roche won the 2.9 mile race in 15:18. Johnsburg's Mark Widhlam as right behind In 15:33 to take second "Mark ran a real nice race," said JHS coach Bob Texidor. "Roche is a real, real strong runner. He's a smart runner, too. Mark stayed with him pretty well" Johnsburg's Ed Nichols fin ished sixth in 16:22, while fresh man Matt Hennigan was seventh in 16:30. Bill Meyer was 10th in 16:52, while Brian Berndt was the final JHS point-getter, finish ing 16th in 17:16. The JHS girls were paced by Tammy Policky, who was sixth in 16:00 over the two-mile course. Jenny Baehne was eighth in 16:11, while Lisa Nunamaker was 12th in 16:39. Joe Wharton was the only Sky- hawk in the frosh-soph race, fin ishing 18th in 20:08. . "South has some very good runners," Texidor said of the Ga tor varsity boys. "They stick to gether very well. But our suys bunched up nicely too. Matt Hen nigan ran a good race, and he's really pushing Ed Nichols right now. Bill Meyer just keeps get ting better, and so does Berndt," said Texidor. Johnsburg's dual record is 3*1, 1-0 in the Northwest Suburban Conference. The Skyhawks will take on Grant Thursday. Healthy Warrior runners take fifth at Wauconda Hurricane* (Continued from page 6) Hill won that race, and after the extra point was blocked, Marian hdd a 6-0 lead with 11:26 left In the 4aif. *<-; The hosts drew first blood In the second half after the second of three Interceptions thrown by Hartlleb was returned to the Marian nine. On the next play, Castino took a pitch out and scooted nine yards around left end. Dave West's point after made it a 7-6 game at the 8:34 mark. But the Hurricanes quickly turned that lead around, courtesy of Jeff Hill. Hill, one of the lead blockers for kick return men Tom Parsley and Jim Herff, took the short ensuing kickoff at his own 21 and went the same place he found success on his earlier touchdown run -- up the gut Hill bolted up the middle and re ceived a superb block from Mike PinneU (who blocked the kicker, the last man able to make the tackle) at the 40 and scampered the remaining distance for a touchdown. The 79-yard return was the second kickoff returned for a touchdown toy the Hurricanes this From that point on, the Hurricane defense took over and played what Penza called, "the best overall game our team has played In at least two years." "I think to stop them on eight successive downs from inside the 10 says a lot for our defense," Penza said "That was the great thing to come out of this game.

R-B is 3-1 Dn the league, 4-1 overall. Bur lington also has one league loas, that coming at the hands of Valley Lu theran, a team Richmond toppled Tuesday. Valley and Genoa-Kings ton have also suffered one confer ence defeat each. "It was a long match," said R-B coach Jan Welch. "Burlington was the only team to beat us last year, and I knew they'd be pretty good. But they have a couple of really good hitters, and I may have taken than too lightly. "We were ahead 4-3 in the third game, but got stuck on four. They went ahead 13-4, we came back to make It 13-10, but then we lost the serve and blew our next three serves In a row. We kind of gave It to them. "We have a very good attacking team, very aggressive. But we haven't been aggressive enough," Welch said "We've been playing too safe, just bumping it over, like we don't know how to attack. And, It finally caught up to us. "The conference Is going to be but returned to the "It was great to have everybody realty and running," said McHenry coach BUI Hutchinson, whoee squad will open Fox Valley Conference ac tion Thursday with a triangular against Crystal Lake South and Crystal Lake Central at Veteran's Acres.

Yorkville won the meet with 51, followed by Grant with 108, Warren with 134, D-C with 136, and the Warriors with 136. South had 188 and Johnsburg was seventh with 206. "Yeah, it was real nice to finish aheadof South," said Hutchinson. "I really taught we could do pretty well If we had everyone-running. 1 figured us to be in the top three or four, so fifth Is about right. I was with that. was sick for two or three happy wit "Terry but he still finished 15th.

"They were bunched together pretty well. Now If we can get them down to about five seconds apart, we'll be In great diape. We're Improving a little hit at a time.
