Bulldogs vanquish Roscoe

By TOM KANE

ROSCOE - For a short while, Sullivan West's Kevin Mullally couldn't do anything against the Roscoe Blue Devils. "I was out of the game at first," he said.

You wouldn't know it by his stats. Mullally ran 235 yards with three touchdowns to bolster the Bulldog's 43-12 win over the Blue Devils last Saturday at Roscoe.

Sullivan West has an overall record of 5-2 and is 2-0 in the league. Roscoe's record is 3-4 overall and 1-1 in the league.

Other Bulldog touchdowns were from John Compton with two and Paul Barrett with one.

Compton powered through the goal line for a six-pointer and carried for 101 yards.

Bulldog quarterback Bill Reichmann ran for 68 yards and completed two passes out of four attempts. Steve Mootz ran for 21 yards.

Roscoe scored near the end of the first half when Brian Ballard, who carried well for the Blue Devils all day, advanced 70 yards for a touchdown, outrunning the entire Bulldog secondary. The Sullivan West defense kept him away from the goal line for the rest of the game.

Roscoe scored again in the fourth quarter when quarterback Shawn Hendrickson spotted Jeff Bury and hit him with a pass. Bury ran 20 yards into the goal.

Sullivan West has two more games, Highland and O'Neill. A win against each would make the Bulldogs division champions and send them on to sectionals. One win will still get them to sectionals.

Roscoe defeats Narrowsburg

AUSTIN MAKES 100TH GOAL

By MARY GREENE

NARROWSBURG - In girls soccer action the Roscoe Blue Devils took a win from the Narrowsburg Indians on the Narrowsburg field Friday, October 13. Despite a goal and a penalty goal by Narrowsburg's Kim Jay in the first half, Roscoe outscored the young team consistently, adding four goals in the first half and four in the second. The final score was 8-2.

The game was highlighted by the achievement of Roscoe senior Danielle Austin, who scored her 100th goal early in the second half. Austin has been playing varsity soccer since seventh grade, but "I scored my first goal in eighth," she said. Her mother, Mary Austin, has been coaching the team for the past six years.

Roscoe goals were scored by Amanda Huck, Rosie Miesier, Diana Faila, Kelly Ehart (one apiece), and Austin, who had four. Roscoe is second to Seward in the league, with a record of 9-5 overall and 5-1 OCIAA.

The ever-valiant Narrowsburg field keeper Beth Meyer had five saves, while Roscoe's goalie Chrissie Rosencranse had three.

Narrowsburg's record in 2-11-1 overall, and 1-5 OCIAA. Narrowsburg coach Linda Pomes said of the game, "[Roscoe] is a very good team-well coached and highly skilled. The Narrowsburg players are becoming better students of the game. They set their own goal for how they wanted to do against Roscoe, and they didn't come too far off it."

Girls varsity soccer runs through next week.
