Chadron Rolls Over O'Neill
For Rangeland Champ Title
The Chadron High Cardinals,
currently tops on Class ‘B’ charts
in the state, overpowered the O'
Neill High Eagles for two touch
downs and capitalized on OHS
errors for two more tallies to
take top honors in the Rangeland
Conference Championship on Sat
urday. The local eleven clicked
for a second quarter touchdown
to keep the contest close before
the visitors broke away for a
fourth-quarter score and the 26-7
victory.
The Eagles received the open
ing kick-off but were forced to
punt after their first series of
downs. Chadron took the ball and
staged a sustained march that
covered 55 yards, with junior full
back Larry Gold scoring from a
yard out. The placement attempt
for the extra point was blocked
but an off-side penalty set the
Cardinals up for their success
ful second conversion and the 7-0
lead.
The inspired OHS squad res
ponded with a fast-moving drive
to the Chadron 12-yard line with
fullback Steve Peterson covering
30 yards in one trot, before over
anxious halfback Larry Lieb
fumbled on a double reverse op
portunity to halt the effort.
The two teams exchanged punts
before the opening stanza ended,
but early in the second quarter
Chadron’s Gold struck paydirt
from four yards out for the sec
ond Cardinal TD. The try for the
extra point was no good, but
Chadron still led 13-0.
This time the Eagles were not
to be denied as they received the
kick-off and quickly marched to
their only score of the afternoon.
A 42-yard Terry Kurtz-to- Gary
Plessell pass set the Eagles up
on the five-yard line. Fullback
Ron Kallhoff carried to the one,
and quarterback Kurtz cracked in
on a keeper. Kurtz carried for
the PAT and the Chadron lead
was cut to 13-7.
The Eagles kicked off, Chad
ron fumbled and O’Neill was right
back in the ball game until Card
inal halfback Terry Blundell
scooped up the second Lieb fum
ble at midfield and ran it back
for a touchdown. Again the extra
point was unsuccessful and the
visitors lead stood at 19-7. The
OHS crew took to the air with
time running out in the first half,
and their efforts carried them to
the 12-yard line before a fourth
down pass to Frost failed to click
and Chadron took over.
At halftime, the eleven OHS
seniors for the last time in high
school uniforms were honored on
the annual Parent’s Day pro
gram. The seniors — Rich Hill,
Gary Plessell, Rich Frost, Steve
Peterson, Ron Kallhoff, Terry
Kurtz, Rick Devall. Dan Schaaf,
Denny Drayton, Don Lndquist
and Gailen Young — and then
parents received recognition and
each player’s mother was pre
sented a white carnation by
Coach Jim Taylor.
The third-quarter battle was
fought mostly at midfield, with
neither team being able to muster
an offensive drive, but midway
through the-final period the alert
Blundell picked off an OHS pass
and scampered 42 yards for the
final tally of the game. The PAT
was good and the final score rest
ed at 26-7.
A late pass to senior end Gary
Plessell from 47 yards out was
good for an O’Neill touchdown,
but the play was called back due
to an off-side penalty. The ball
game and the high school foot
ball campaign for eleven O’Neill
High seniors, ended with the
Eagles in possession at midfield
when time ran out.
The contest was not quite so
lop-sided as the score indicated
with the Eagles in contention
throughout the game. The alert
Chadron defense is to be com
mended on their heads-up play,
but the OHS gridiron trojans de
serve recognition for their all-out
efforts. Fullback Peterson led the
OHS ball carriers with an eight
yard average.
Two team members participat
ing in the Saturday afternoon
Rangeland Conference Champion
ship Play-off battle received
World Herald recognition for
player-of-the-week honors.
Chadron fullback, Larry Gold
received the recognition for his
two touchdowns that set the Card
inals out in front and O'Neill
High quarterback Terry Kurtz
was mentioned for his first-half
passing attack. This is the sec
ond time this year that the OHS
senior has received the award.
