in the Crusaders' win in Friday night's game.

DALE A. DUNAWAY/The Cincinnati Posl

The Moeller Varsity Crusaders won the Regional Championships Friday night, beating Middletown 20-14 at Dayton's Welcome Stadium.

The Crusaders scored first in the first quarter when Adam Hyzdu faked a handoff, then stepped toward the line of scrimmage and veered to his right.

In the open, Hyzdu ran 55 yards for the score.

Terry Knecht's extra point was good and the Crusaders led 7-0.

That was the only score of the first half.

After a defensive struggle in the second quarter, both teams headed for the locker room, and the score remained 7-0.

Moeller, again, scored first in the second half, on their first possession. Hyzdu lofted a 60-yard touchdown pass to senior Mike Beerman to make the score 14-0.

After a Middletown fumble, the Crusaders scored again. This time on a one-yard run by Hyzdu, capping off a 38-yard drive.

Middletown running back Jeff Cothran fumbled three times on the night.

"In an option offense, there's going to be fumbles.

He's running hard and everyone knows he wants to win, .. said Coach Klonne.

The extra point was blocked, leaving the score 20-0.

Middletown scored once in the third quarter and again in the fourth, both on two-yard runs

by Cothran.

The extra points were good as Middletown threatened late, 20-14.

THE LAST Otrr For a brief moment, he didn't move.

As the ball nestled into his glove, he cradled it as a mother would hold her newborn child, gently, lovingly, and full of wonder.

Ron Tenkman loved this moment, probably more than any other in his life.

As all kids had, he had fantasized about it hundreds of times, however, now that it was real. he wasn't sure whether to believe it.

However. his eyes and ears told him it was true.

The scoreboard read Moeller 12, Upper Arlington 4.

This was the third out of the final inning.

This was real.

The ball and this feeling were his to keep.

A full second had passed and he hadn't awaken to realize it was just a dream.

He heard the cheers ringing in his ears and this wasn't a dream. it was really happening.

His face exploded into a look of utter happiness and indescribable emotion. and he began to run. searching for someone to hug.

He didn't have to run very far.

Running towards him were Adam Hyzdu and Jerry Storm. hands in the air, screaming something that he couln't understand.

This didn't matter. They had been there with him throughout the season. through all of the tough games, the losing streaks, injuries, suspensions and lost starting jobs.

This season had a happy ending afterall.

The Elder Panthers can proudly lay claim to having put a total of 8 of the 31 total losses on the Moeller ledger.

Only two school have beaten Moeller more than Moeller has Waren Harding and beaten them: from A1abama.

J. o. Johnson

This was truly a happy ending to a great season.

As they ran toward the mound, they saw yet another scene of celebration.

They saw the brothers Hindersman leaping into each others arms, experiencing a moment filled with such joy that it didn't seem real.

Then their teammates were climbing on them, screaming and reaching for them; each player was a part of this celebration because no one, not even the coaches, the fans or the people listening on the radio. could understand how they felt.

For this brief moment before the fans. public address announcers, state baseball officials, television, and radio crews interrupted, it was just the Crusaders. piling on top of each other, experiencing a tremendous feeling that was theirs and theirs alone.

They had won the state championship. They had bea~over 100 other teams and they had beaten the odds. They had beaten their own self doubts and they had beaten them on a few occasions.

The coaches had been through the season also, and had felt all of the pain and joy involved. But this was different for the coaches.

They had been coaching for years and in ten years, they would still be coaching.

High school athletes have a brief lifespan.

They are freshmen one minute, alumni the next.

Within minutes of Tenkman cat~hing that last flyball, the rest of the would would intrude ¡on their moment.

The Hindersmans.

Hyzdu.

Coach Cameron. and others would be rushed in front of television cameras.

The others would find themself surrounded by microphones, cameras and pencils.

They would then look into the stands for family and friends to share the joy with them.

But those first few moments belonged to them and to no one else.

No one.

Day in and day outâ&#x20AC;˘

There's the never-ending chore of hauling the equipment out of storage. spacing it strategically around the entire practice area so that each squad has exactly what it needs and 2-3 hours later comes the equally thankless task of collecting everything and getting it returned to secure storage.

In between might come the marking or remarking of a field for a game or practice, or the many and varied requests of any one of the coaches or players to run an errand or help them solve a problem that "can't wait ... the athletes have When finished. showered and left for the day, these young men are still here, sweeping and mopping the locker room so that it will be 'reasonably' presentable until the masses return to wreck havoc again the next day.

What kind of a support system is needed to insure that the 'Big Moe Machine' rolls on smoothly through each daily practice and weekly game on all three levels?

In years past as many as ten to twelve young men shared in these duties.

In 1989, these responsibilities are handled very smoothly and efficiently by three youngsters.

The 'main' man - 2-year Head Football Manager, Senior Jeff Herricks Jeff is one of the four children of Robert and Lynn Hericks of the Loveland area.

His older brother Tony, Moeller '89, is a first-year college student; younger brother, Andy. is a very active Moeller freshmen; sister Jessica is a 6th grader at Loveland Elementary.

Jeff actually began his managing experience in the Moeller Basketball Program during his own freshmen year.

At the end of his sophomore year. his quiet. polite and efficient ways had caught the eye of everyone in the Athletic Program.

It was only logical to approach him with the ultimate and most demanding challenge - Head Manager of Football.

THE MANAGERS Tom Rineair, Jeff Hericks.

Andy Hericks

and

True to his loyalities, Jeff only agreed after consulting those involved and being assured that he could continue to do basketball as well.

Jeff would like to continue this labor of love in the college of his choice next year.

He will not have to look too far for enthusiastic references.

In addition to the JulyMarch managerial duties, he serves on the Rally Committee coordinates the T.V. Studio and for two years, has worked on the Technical Crew for the spring play.

You're only as good as the people around you!

Tom Rineair, a junior. is completing his second year of these duties.

Tom is the .. pup" of Cliff and Betty Rinear of Milford, having four older brothers and two older sisters.

Also a member of the Rally Commi.ttee, Tom has found a new 'love' -LaCrosse.

In 1989, Tom received the 'Spirit Award' in this rugged sport.

Andy Hericks - a freshmen more good qualities. continued

Can you believe? This 'ball of energy' is a member of the Band, runs Cross Country, in addition to serving as a critical third part of the manager team.

It would certainly appear that the family work ethic continues with Andy.

While these three young men are the Moeller student components of the managerical staff, it would be an unforgiveable oversight if the efforts of Joe Asbrock, Harry Becker and Cliff Kemp were not mentioned.

Every Thursday afternoon, these gentlemen spend about 2-3 hours checking all of the players equipment for needed repair and adjustments On game day, they're here 4 hours before kickoff to help load the equipment and drive it the game site.

Also deserving of special mention for his daily assistance is a future Man of Moeller, Mike Kamphake.

Panthers Rally Past Crusaders

ROBERT DICKERSON/The Cinc.nnati Post

Moeller's Chris Asbrock runs into Elder's Mark Berkowitz (30) and Kevin Martin on a punt return in the first quarter.

The Crusaders suffered their first set back of the year Friday night, upset by a well-prepared Elder team 18-7 at Nippert Stadium before 20,000 fans, who were not turned away by the cold and the rain.

The first quarter was a defensive struggle, as neither team scored.

Moeller took the lead in the second quarter, capping off an impressive drive with Carlos Collins running off tackle from 4 yards out.

Hyzdu added the extra point to put the Crusaders up 7-0.

The Crusader defense allowed the Elder quarterback only 3 completions in 15 attempts in the first half.

The turning point came in the 3rd quarter after Moeller's 5th sack of the quarter and 8th of the day.

Paff found wide receiver Joe Ficker for a 61-yard TD pass to cut Moeller's lead 76.

From this point on, the Elder offense moved the ball confidently, scoring in the 3rd quarter again on a 62-yard pass and a 28 yarder in the 4th quarter.

A Crusader scoring opportunity was dashed in the 2nd quarter when Brian Zelina's return of a blocked extra point was called back.

The ball was ruled dead.

Elder remains unbeated at 70 while Moeller is 6-1.

Next week's game is Homecoming against LaSalle at Galbreath.

NATIONAL RECOGNITION

Ardell

Brian Zelina

Thank you to Mr. Doug Huff, Sports Editor of the Intelligencer from Wheeling, West Virginia who was kind enough to send us a note in reaction to our September 25, 1989 Football Newsletter.

In that printing, we noted in reference to a u.s.A. TODAY story which discussed the profile of their Top 25 Ranking from 1982 until the present, "The Crusaders .have not cracked the elite Super 25 ranking in that publication yet this season."

Doug wrote us to say, "Would it interest you to know that Moeller has been ranked since pre-season in the na_i::JQ~S mo_st wide !.Y:-t:;:!_r_gy_l_ated r~nl5ingÂŁ. the National Prep Poll, which I have compiled the last three years for football and boys basketball?

Also, you might note, that Moeller was listed .among the nation's pre-season Top 25 teams in 'Street & Smith's' College Football Yearbook, the nations's ffiQ.!<l.:t. wi9ely ciz::_culated and oldest pre-season publication.

I author those selections as well as the pre-season high school AllAmerican teams for S&S." He was kind enough to send along a printout of the latest National Prep Po 11.

In that listing, Moeller holds down an impressive #14 ranking.

Our tenth game opponent from over on Chester Road, the Princeton Vikings are two notches above us at #12.

Doug has indicated in the way of further specifics that this particular poll is used by ESPN's Scholastic Sports American as well as being syndicated to over 200 newspapers.

It is carried on the national wires of the Associated Press and appears in publications in over 40 states.

We're very grateful to Doug for his kind response. continued

FROSH FOOTBALL On September 26, Moeller's Freshmen Fighting Crusaders beat St. Xavier 31-20 to give them a 2-1 record.

The defense was awesome.

They had 4 fumble recoveries Cone on a kickoff) and 2 interceptions. They stopped most of St. Xavier's running and didn't give them good¡ pass opportunity with 3 sacks.

The only bad spot was when St. Xavier returned ¡our first kickoff for a touchdown.

The offense had a great game too.

Kelly Davis had 19 carries for 108 yards and 2 TDs. Chad Seigert had 30 yards on 5 carries.

Quarterback, Dan Feichtner ran one touchdown. The other 2 TDs were passes to Jim Kennedy for 11 yards and Mike Bell for 41 yards.

One extra point was kicked by Chris Kent.

The offensive line was great with their blocking to help get a total of 259 yards on 55 plays.

On October 3, Freshmen Crusaders lost to Elder 27-6 to give them a record of 2-2.

There were comments from the coaches on the defense.

But it was by far not their best game.

The Elder offense scored on them 3 times in the first half and once in the second.

The defense wasn't getting the turnovers they got the last game either.

Offensively, Moeller was not at its best either.

The quarterback just wasn't getting the protection he needed.

He just couldn't connect with his receivers.

The offense had 120 yards and one TD.

In the closest game of the year so far, the Crusaders defeated a tough St. Xavier team 28-20 to raise their record to 10-0.

The Crusaders started to pull ahead with their second score.

A pass from Hyzdu to Keith Valerius for his first score of the year.

This made it 14-3.

However, St. Xavier kept fighting and pulled back within four with a late second quarter TD to make the score 14-10.

After the half, a fired-up St. Xavier team drive it in from the one after being set up by a 48-yard pass.

The extra point was good and St. Xavier pulled ahead 17-14.

The Crusaders took advantage of penalities and substitutions when they received the ball and capped off their drive on a 52yard TD pass from Hyzdu to Matt Birrell to put the Moeller ahead for good, 21-17.

However, the game was not over.

St. Xavier did not lie down, making a field goal in the fourth quarter to pull within one, the closest margin of the day, 21-20.

Threatening in the final minutes, the Bombers seemed ready to score and pull ahead, mounting an impressive drive, when Quarterback Shawn Brennan was spun around and fumbled the ball which Todd Ille scooped up and returned 62 yards to score and put the game on ice.

The final score: Moeller 28, Xavier 20.

GOLF - The team has completed the GCL regular season with a fine 82 record.

This was good for second place in the league.

Their dual meet record stands at a very solid 12-5.

During the week of 9-25-89, the squad enjoyed a big week by beating two of the City's topranked teams.

On Monday, September 18, the Crusaders defeated rival Elder 158-162.

The Panthers were ranked 8th in the City.

On Thursday, the team traveled to Hamilton and beat the area's 5th-ranked team, 162-164.

Seniors Doug Daley and Brian Habegger led the Elder Victory by firing 36 and 38 respectively.

Senior Bob Radwan led the charge against Hamilton with a 38 while Junior Scott Rahl shot a 40.

The team also placed 3rd in the Troy Invitational.

The highlight of that day was provided by Captain Doug Daley.

Doug fired a fine 76 in some adverse wind conditions to tie for the individual championship.

Unfortunately, Doug lost in a playoff, but, nonetheless, brought home a nice second-place trophy.

Junior Mike O'Brien, along with Doug Daley have averaged around 40 strokes per match to lead the squad.

On Tuesday, September 26th, the Linkmen dropped a tough decision to the City's No.3 ranked team, the undefeated Braves of Indian Hill.

The next day was another tough decision for Moe as they were beaten by St. Xavier by a 171-189 count.

The Crusaders were led by Captain Doug Daley's 43 stroke effort.

Thursday closed out the GCL League Race.

Moeller claimed 2nd place with a 2-stroke victory over Elder 167-169.

Junior Mike O'Brien shot a fine 37 and was supported by a solid 39 from Daley.

They competed in the Princton Fall Classic at Middletown's Weatherwax Course on Saturday, September 30th and finished 14th out of 36 teams.

Senior Doug Daley's 82 and Senior Mike Heenan's 83 led the Crusaders.

The Best of Traditions

The Moeller tradition: before the season, before each game, and always the stopping point after each contest.

s--o

Moe Rambl~s On

The Moeller Varsity Crusaders defeated a strong Erie Cathedral Prep squad 22-6 Saturday at Galbraith Field.

Erie Prep was ranked No. 4 in the State of Pennsylvania coming into the game.

Both teams were shut out in the first quarter because of strong defense on both sides.

The Crusaders were first to score as the result of a 9-play.

85-yard drive.

Quarterback Adam Hyzdu ran the ball in from 3 yards out to make it 6-0.

Hyzdu then took a pitch and headed for the endzone. but flipped the ball to wide receiver Matt Birrell among a cluster of Erie Prep defensemen for the two-point conversion.

The drive was highlighted by a 52-yard completion from Hyzdu to tightend Chris Asbrock.

Erie Prep came right back on its next possession and caped a 9-play, 69-yard drive with a 31yard touchdown pass.

Those were the only points that the Moeller defense was to allow.

The Crusaders closed out the scoring in the first half with a 29-yard completion from Hyzdu to Birrell, with Hyzdu running over the goal line for another 2-point conversion to make it Moeller 16, Erie Prep 6.

The third quarter was another defensive struggle with neither team able to score.

A driving rain caused both teams to go to their running game.

Carlos Collins ran 24 times for a total of 150 yards and Hy?.du completed 8 passes on 13 attempts for 162 yards.

NCAA RANKING$

TOUGH LUCK

Moeller graduate Scott Schaffner's fine, 12 of 18 for 220 yards and two touchdowns, performance in the Minnesota victory over Iowa State has him ranked 2nd in the Nation in passing.

He has 206 points.

This is based upon an NCAA formula which is similar to the NFL's.

It figures in completions, TD and interception percentages.

1988 Most Valuable Player, Casey Fisher, suffered a broken finger as he prepared to go into action last Monday for Wittenberg's J.V. against the Dayton Flyers.

He was looking forward to competing against his buddy, Scott Davis '88, and his nemesis, Steve Keller from Elder.

There'll be other occasions, Casey - Good Luck.

The Crusaders exploded early against Dayton Dunbar Saturday night at Welcome Stadium. Carlos Collins took the opening kickoff 90 yards for Moeller's first score, and Adam Hyzdu added the extra point to make it 7-0.

Dunbar received the ball, but couldn't hold on to it for very long, turning it over deep in their own territory on their first series.

The Crusaders took advantage of the opportunity with a 41-yard TD pass from Hyzdu to tightend Chris Asbrock.

However, the 2point conversion failed and the score remained 13-0.

After a controversial onside kick attempt was ruled against the Crusaders, Dunbar mounted their first real drive, but were quickly shut down by an over-powering Moeller defense which allowed only 34 rushing yards and 0 passing yards all day.

Moeller's final score before the half came on a 32-yard pass from Hyzdu to a wide-open Mike Beerman standing in the endzone and Hyzdu's kick made it 20-0.

After the half, Moeller came back to score twice.

In the third period, after an impressive drive, Hyzdu took the ball in himself from the 5-yard line and added the kick to raise the score to 27-0.

Again the defense shut down Dunbar and returned the ball to the Crusader offense.

The final score of the game came in the 4th quarter on an 8-yard pass form Hyzdu to wide receiver Matt Birrell and Terry Knecht closed out the scoring with the extra point, making the final score Moeller 34, Dayton Dunbar o.

THE HARBIN TALE The first Harbin ratings were released on Thursday, September 21. Moeller is holding down the 3rd spot with a 26.5 point total.

Crusader hopefuls should lbe very satisfied with these early returns as only two of our first four opponents have broken in to the win columns.

The second level points which are included in this rating scheme come from victories by previously defeated opponents.

If you'd like a more specific insight into the Harbin Rankings, please read the article in this issue.

Further insights can be obtained by reviewing each week the Crusader Opponents' feature and noting whether our past and future opponents are winning or not.

Scores and point differences mean nothing to the ranking, only wins and losses.

Moeller Grounds Aviators

The Moeller Varsity Crusaders started off the 1989 football season in a big way, defeating the Sycamore Aviators 35-0 in front of an electrified home crowd at Galbraith Field Friday night.

The Crusader offense scored on it's first four possessions leading 29-0 at the half.

Moeller's first score came on a two-yard run by Carlos Collins, as he dove to his right, behind solid blocking on the offensive line, to put Moeller ahead G-0.

Adam Hyzdu then took a pitch and raced across the goal line for the two-point conversion making it 8-0.

Doug Burwinkel who kicked well all night, averaging 58.5 yards per kickoff, put the Aviators deep in their own territory for their opening drive.

However, a tenacious defensive line and secondary allowed no ground.

Led by Jeff Crable, Brian Zelina, Brad Hindersman, Jerry Storm, Chad Whitaker and Todd Ille, the defense forced Sycamore to punt after three plays.

Moeller's second score came when Adam Hyzdu scrambled out of the pocket to his right and lofted a 52-yarder to wide receiver Matt Birrell, who had found a soft spot in the Aviator secondary.

With a nice move, Birrell got by his man and headed for the end zone to make it 14-0.

Hyzdu's kick made it 15-0.

Again, the Crusader defense took the field, having yet to allow a first down, and held Sycamore on three plays.

A tipped punt by Todd Ille left Moeller in good field position.

Todd Shaffer continued on page 3

. page 3

Set up by an earthshattering block by Todd Shaffer, Hyzdu rolled out to his left and threw to Junior Todd Naumann for an 18-yard score.

Hyzdu's kick made the score 22-0.

After the defense again held off a Sycamore threat with fine efforts by Crable, Zelina, Hindersman (2 sacks), Whitaker and Ken Darby, the offense came back to score once more before the half on a spectacular 28-yard diving catch by Chris Asbrock from Hyzdu. The kick made it 290 and both teams headed for the 1ocker room.

At halftime, the State Champion Moeller Varsity Baseball Team was presented with their State Championship rings in a brief ceremony.

The Crusader Baseball Team, led by Coaches Mike Cameron and Paul Smith was 26-6 in the 1989 season.

The Crusaders took the field for the second half and scored late in the third quarter on a 20-yard pass from Hyzdu to Birrell for his second TO of the night.

Hyzdu closed out the scoring, missing the extra point making the score 35-0.

Moeller's next opponent will be Colerain in the Blue Chip Classic.

Frosh Start Bob Kolkmeyer, Freshmen

Head Freshmen Coach Bob Kolkmeyer and his staff are excited about the 82 young men who have come out for this year's team.

There appears to be excellent overall size and speed among the candidates. It will be the very challenging task to the staff of Randy Fath, Offensive Coordinator, Offensive Backs and Wide Receivers; Chris Higgins, Offensive Line; Bill Brewer, Defensive Backs: Bob Kolkmeyer, Defensive Line and Linebackers to attempt to mold these talented individuals into a successful team.

The time is quickly upon the group as they'll be exposed to the up and coming Withrow tigers in a scrimmage on Wednesday, August 30th at 4:00 PM. After approximately a two week interval to learn from that experience, they will begin their Moeller careers in earnest when they will host the Delhi Junior High in a 4:00 PM start at Moeller on Wednesday, September 13.

Did you know that On the Soccer Fields:

Moeller on the Run

1988 Moeller graduate Brian Bonham has secured a starting job on. the Bowling Green State University Varsity Team.

He orobably took a big step toward holding that position as he recently scored the only goal in the Falcon's season opener, a 1-0 victory.

Not to be upstaged!

On the local .scene, the Crusader Varsity Soccer Squad was in the process of achieving a momentous victory over State power Beavercreek only to have a dangerous and violent thunderstorm force the termination of the contest six minutes short of regulation.

Coach Hurley and hi's team are starting to receive. some richly deserved recognitiort.

Presently, the Varsity Squad's record stands at 1-0-1.

They tied a fine traditionladen Sycamore squad 1-1 in their season opener behind another superb effort in goal by Mike McMillan.

Then on August 31, following the tough experience at Beavercreek, they plucked the Colerain Cardinals by a solid 6-2 margin.

Early in the first week of school, the Varsity Cross Country squad traveled to Rapid Run Park in Price Hill and participated in a six-team 'scrimmage'.

The MoeMen ran second to the defending State Champions from Elder in a very encouraging outing.

But the Crusaders led by Junior Mike Brewer, saved their best first-week effort for Thursday at the very tough French Park course.

They ran away with the team championship in the AAA Division as they bested a tenteam field.

With Brewer leading the way with a new AAA course record time of 16:25 for the tortouous 3. 1 miles.

Captain Scott Popolin, Steve Krimmer, Matt Holland and Doug Kohls joined Mike as the scoring unit, with all times finishing in the top seventeen runners.

Congratulations to these young men and to their coaches Tim Erdmann and Rich Gemereth.

1989 Baseball Co-Captain Mike Olexa enjoyed an outstanding performance at the Connie Mack National Championships in Farmington, New Mexico in late August.

He was named the tournament MVP as his Midland Squad took the National Title.

Following the conclusion of the tournament, Mike left immediately for the University of Miami, Florida to begin his collegiate baseball career.

An early highlight of that experience will be a trip to the Soviet Union.

1989 Football • • scrammage revaew •

The 1989 Moeller Varsity Football Team opened up their season with a scrimmage against a very-talented Mt. Healthy team.

With a tough challenge ahead for the defense, it would be a longawaited scrimmage.

The Owls' offense was led by an exceptional backfield.

But like the defenses of the past, the Big Moe came through and was very tenacious.

The .. D.. was led up front by Brad Hindersman and Jeff Crable with

an

exceptional job.

Mt. Healthy stayed on the ground virtually the whole game even though they were stuffed but when they did go to the air, they were no match for the defensive back crew consisting of Ardell Barkley, newcomer to the defensive side of the ball Tony Walker, Chris Woycke, Jerry Storm and Ken Darby.

Because of great pursuits, they managed to force 4 fumbles, 2 of which were recovered and intercepted 1 pass with a total of 3 turnovers.

The Offense was led by Junior QB Neil Dougherty who had fine protection by Matt Baer, Paul Barry, Keith Fulmer and Todd Shaffer.

Neil Dougherty was accurate, hitting the rece1v1ng corps of Keith Valerius, Mike Beerman and Joe McCullough.

Carlos Collins scored the first TD of the game with a nice run.

Also adding TDs were Keith Valerius, Jody Smith and Lonnie Blackley.

The Big Moe won 35-6 and looked forward to their next ODDOnent. o I

The next step for the Crusaders was a passing scrimmage against Woodward.

This would be a real test for the DB crew.

With the exception of a few breakdowns, the "D" managed to give up only one TD on a 14-yard pass reception.

Standouts on the defensive side of the ball were Todd Ille, Chad Whitaker and Brad Hindersman putting a lot of pressure and acquiring several sacks.

The "D" gave up 9 first downs and only gave up 34 yards on the ground and 120 yards in the air for a total of 163 yards.

Bie Moe's defense was all over the field forcing one turnover.

Moeller's Offense moved the ball easily, but with the 10-play rule, it hal ted Moeller several times from scoring.

But the Big Moe took the field in the second half and on their first drive, they marched down the field and capped it off with a 2-yard run

by Junior QB Neil Dougherty.

That was when the seconds took over and on their first series, an interception run back for a TD was Woodward's second score. The 2's were backed up against a rock and a hard place now down 13-7 but came back with Sophomore QB Jeff Raussen taking control with the help of Adam Adkins who had 5 rushes for .33 yards and a TD for 3 yards with Doug Burwinkle adding the extra point and winning the gall game 14-13.

Some of the Big Moe's individual statistics were Carlos Collins who rushed 5 times for 45 yards leading the backs in rushing; QB Neil Dougherty was 16-25 hitting Asbrock, Valerius, Beerman and Currin.

The leading receiver was Chris Asbrock with 8 catches for 93 yards.

Now for Moeller's real challenge.

A full go-all-out scrimmage with a much improved Middletown team.

Moeller struck first with excellent blocking by the line for Carlos Collins to break a 62 yarder with an exceptional downfield block by Paul Barry with Doug Burwinkle adding the extra point.

The First-Team "D" held the Middies scoreless for all 3 quarters with exceptional play by Dan Buckley with 2 backs.

Others playing exceptionally well were Ardell Barkley with an interception and Brad Hindersman forcing a fumble which Brian Zelina recovered.

Then the Moeller Offense scored on a 19-yard run with Doug Burwinkle adding the extra point, making it 14-0.

Moeller's one's managed to put a final drive together with Carlos Collins capping it off with a 3-yard run making it 20-0 and time for the two's to take over.

The second offense fluttered which didn't help the "D" all that much.

Middletown scored on a run which the "D" forced a fumble but it was recovered by the Middies to make it 20-6.

Middletown then scored again on a 29-yard TD reception making it 20-12.

On the offensive side of the ball, Matt Birrell came back into action at 100%, making 3 catches for 45 yards.

Others with pass receptions were Keith Valerius who caught 1 pass for 20 yards and kept up a steady pace of receptions and Carlos Collins on a screen pass that went for 7 yards.

Overall, the Coaches were happy with Moe's scrimmages, commenting on the constant and steady improvement of the team.

The Moeller Crusaders will play for the first time against neighborhood rival, Sycamore.

So come out and support the Crusaders at Galbraith Field on August 25th.

1989 Iron Man Contest Once again the Moeller Football Team conducted it's annual Iron Man Weight-lifting Contest.

Every year at the end of the school year, the football players are tested in several lifts (bench press, squat, and power cleans).

The total weight lifted in all three lifts is computed and a target goal is set for each player.

For example, a player that has a combined lift of 750 pounds in June might be asked to get a combined lift of 780 pounds to make Iron Man. Right before group workouts start in July. the players are retested in the Iron Man Contest.

The following is a list of the players that made Iron Man in 1989.

Food, Glorious Food "Two-a-days" - that is a term . that conjures up a lot of mixed emotions among football players and their families.

It is the time when most of the hard. grueling physical work and preparation for the upcoming season is completed.

At Moeller. the players come in at 7:30 AM and leave around 5:00 PM. During those hours, there is a lot of running, hitting and meetings.

It is a day filled with activity with little time for rest and relaxation.

It is similar to the NFL pre-season training camps.

The one area of leisure time provided for the players is the lunch provided for them by the parents.

Every year the Captains' Parents organize the "two-a-day" lunches for over 100 athletes and coaches..

NFL training tables never had it so good.

Dozens of Mothers and Fathers volunteer their time spending hours and hours in preparation.

Car washes and other fund raisers go on all Spring and Summer raising money for the Summer Lunch Program.

Each year. it seems that the parents take on the challenge of trying to do more and more for the players.

The Captains's Parents that have organized this year's lunch program are Elaine and Bob Birrell, Joan and Jack Crable.

Shelly and Mike Hyzdu. Bob and Dottie Meyer. and Jan and John Shaffer.

Only their sons can truly give them thanks for a job well done.

On the last day of the "Two-a-days. the players present their mothers with a rose in appreciation for the sacrifices made during this time.

To the Captains' Parents and all of the other parents that came in and helped out - THANKS! And another big round of "thanks-you's" go to the many businesses that donated food and supplies for the lunch program.

page 8 '

Many Moeller parents, alumni and friends have helped make this season's lunch program a huge success.

Please thank them if you run into them and patronize their businesses if you can. Let them know how much you appreciate their gift to Moeller athletics.

by Hyzdu.

CRUSADERS IN COLLEGIATE FOOTBALL RANKS

THE

Steve Broughton '88 and classmate Don Feldhaus '88 have been impact players in both their seasons down in Murray, Kentucky with the Murray Sta~e Racers.

Scott Davis '88 is the #3 QB for the Dayton Flyers.

Scott has seen brief action this season, completing 2 of 3 passes for ~4 yards.

The Flyers are once aga1n in the playoffs.

Paul Hopewell '88 continues to be haunted by yet another fairly serious injury.

As in his rookie year at Minnesota last season, Paul, after an outstanding first four or five games, has suffered a seasonending injury.

Offensive linemen from the Class of 1988, Greg Huntington, Tom Thiel and Rick Schulte, are continuing to play key roles at Penn State, Holy Cross and Western Kentucky respectively.

As might be expected when one reviews the graduates of 1989, the key word is "red shirted. " This is the role of Mike Nicholas at North Carolina State and Jack Thrush with the Ohio State Buckeyes.

It is understood, also, that Chris Jenkins after beginning the year on the active roster for the Montana "Grizzlies" has been placed on the "injury-red shirted" status.

John Fitzpatrick '89 has pleased the Murray State staff with his solid credentials.

Casey Tucker '89 is enjoying his new home in Muncie, Indiana with the Ball State Cardinals and apparently the feeling is mutual.

89'ers Casey Fisher Cour '88 F.B. MVP), Kevin Henderson and Jason Griffis are now serving with distinction in the ranks of the Wittenberg program in Springfield, Ohio.

Kevin sends his special thanks to Coaches Straub and Lippincott for the 'education' he received from them as a Varsity Crusader.

It has provided him with a unique edge in the battle for college playing time.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Crusader Varsity Footballers can point with pride to the fact that 31 of their number are maintaining a quality point ranking in the top half of their respective classes.

Five Senior footballers can point with pride to a ranking in the top 10~ of their class.

The Junior Class can boost six teammates of similar ranking.

Moeller is extremely proud of the classroom work of all of it's students.

These young men sacrifice many. valuable primetime hours of study time to achieve their athletic goals.

But that does not prevent a very high,percentage of these athletes from demonstrating their outstanding gifts in the classroom as well.

CROSS COUNTRY Mike Brewer - Aiming National Championships

for

Moeller Junior Mike Brewer completed his high school season on Saturday, November 4, by posting an outstanding 29th place in the State Championships in Columbus, Ohio. This represented the highest finish ever by a Moeller runner.

On week later, Mike took 8th place in the Ohio District Qualifier for the National High School Championships in Lancaster, Ohio.

This performance qualifies him for the Regional Qualifier this weekend, November 18, in Lexington, Kentucky.

A top twenty performance at the Regionals, a very realistic goal, will earn Mike a trip to Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana for the National Championships.

Number One versus Number One The Crusaders closed out their season Sunday, November 26th coming up just short in a thrilling champi ship game at Ohio State Stadium.

When the smoke had cleared, the score read Cleveland St. Ignatius 34, Moeller 28 and it was actually even closer than that.

The two big guns, Moeller's Adam Hyzdu and Ignatius' Joe Pickens took to the air frequently putting on an a r al display unmatched in State Championship play.

Ignatius scored first on a deep pass from Pickens to Ruddy.

The extra point was good and Ignatius led 7-0.

Moeller came back after two unsuccessful drives by both teams to score on a 64-yard bomb from Hyzdu to TE Chris Asbrock.

That tied the score at 7.

Ignatius scored once more in the first quarter, this time on an 11-yard run by Kennedy.

After receiving the ball, the Crusaders opened the s~~ond period by capping off a J-play drive with a 7-yard r~n 0y Hyzdu which was set up by a 52-yard pass to Joe Currin.

Then Hyzdu engineered a 76yard, 9-play drive to put the Crusaders ahead 21-14 at halftime. The score came on a 6yard run by Junior Carlos Collins.

After Moeller failed to move the ball on their first possession of the second half, St. Ignatius struck quickly.

After a 3-play drive, Pickens tossed a 49-yard TD pass to Ruddy to tie the game again at 21-21.

With 11:26 remaining in the game, the Wi~dcats took the lead on a 1-yer¡d run by Brian Spear, after a 4-play, 34-yard drive. fhe drive was set up by a 41-~ard punt return from Pete Fitzpatrick. The scoreboard read Ignatius 28, Moeller 21.

After the Moeller drive was stopped at the Wildcat 35, Ignatius drove 65 yards in 6 plays, scoring on a 23-yard pass from Pickens to Jaekin.

This proved to be the winning score.

The Crusaders, however, not laying down, scored again on an 8-yard pass from Hyzdu to Keith Valerius, making the final score Ignatius 34, Moeller 28.

Eleven State Game Rxecords were set in the game including total points C62), completions CHyzdu 21) and pass yardage CHyzdu 347).

Congratulations on a great season, Crusaders.
