D6 Akron Beacon Journal Sunday, September 2, 1 984 FOOTBALL COLLEGE SUMMARIES WEST VIRGINIA 38, OHIO U. 0 Oh U. 0 0 0 0-0 West Virginia 3 21 7 7-38 Moeller recovers from early deficit to defeat Eagles HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL "I may have had time to put the ball back on the tee, but I didn't want to take the chance," he said. "At first, I thought I had a chance to run the ball in, but then I noticed that the defensive back had his back turned toward Stacy, so I threw the ball to him. We got lucky when Stacy was able to still catch the bal after that guy (Bruns) tipped it." Verdell Rice started at quarterback for the Eagles in place of the injured Ed Hill, who is out with a knee injury.

Rice is the Eagles' regular left halfback in the wishbone and was the team's leading rusher a year ago. "Moeller scouted us in a scrimmage game and we felt they went away with the idea that they would let our quarterback run," said Skeggs. "With that in mind we moved Rice to quarterback and I think we surprised them a couple of times because of Rice's ability to run the triple option." Rice carried 11 times for a team-high 48 yards. Wilson Campbell was right behind with 46 yards in 13 tries.

Gay, a transfer from Kentucky, scored on runs of one and five yards during a 21-point second quarter as West Virginia took a 24-0 halftime lead. Ohio which the Mountaineers beat 55-3 in the 1983 opener, advanced to the West Virginia 13 in the third quarter without scoring and then was stopped four times inside the 5-yard line in the final period. The Bobcats' only other serious scoring threat came on their first possession of the game when they drove to the Mountaineer 26 only to have Mike Fultz miss a 43-yard field goal. West Virginia took a 3-0 lead in the first quarter on Paul Wood-side's 44-yard field goal and then unleashed a balanced attack in the second quarter to score three touchdowns. Junior quarterback Tony Reda drove West Virginia 56 yards in 11 plays for a score, with tailback Pat Randolph carrying nine yards for the touchdown.

Reda, who hit nine of 17 passes for 119 yards in his first start, completed three key third-down passes of 14 yards to Willie Drewrey, 22 yards to Rob Bennett and 11 yards to Gary Mullen to keep the drive alive. Gay, who gained 106 yards in nine carries, had runs of 16 and 14 yards to spur a 7-play, 67-yard By Milan Zban Beacon Journal staff writer KINGS ISLAND If they don't remember anything else about Central-Hower's 1984 football debut, they'll never forget the Eagles' first touchdown of the season, and that's because of how they scored and against whom. Seven-time state playoff champion Cincinnati Moeller pinned a 26-7 defeat on the Eagles at Gal-braith Stadium Saturday, but it was the Eagles who drew first blood. And the way they did it stunned the crowd of about 6,000. On the Eagles' first possession, they drove to the Moeller 18.

But the drive fizzled there and coach Bill Skeggs sent in Kelly Clark to attempt a field goal, with backup quarterback Demetrious Johnson to hold. Johnson bobbled the snap, grabbed the ball, spun to his left, looked downfield and saw Stacy Ray in the end zone. However, when Johnson fired the ball downfield, Moeller linebacker Jim Brans got a hand on the ball, tipping it backward and into the waiting arms of Ray, who was several feet inside the end zone. There was 7:13 left in the opening quarter and Central-Hower had a 7-0 lead on the team USA Today picked as the top high school squad in the nation. The Eagles' lead lasted only as long as it took Moeller quarterback Mark Kamphause to warm up his arm.

Kamphaus found wide out Ray Hilvert on scoring passes of, 10 and 12 yards in the first and second quarters to give Moeller a 13-7 halftime lead. The Crusaders never trailed again. Kamphaus added two more touchdown passes in the second half, both to wide-out Tom Waddle for nine and 15 yards, to complete the scoring. The Crusaders' quarterback finished with 21 completions in 31 attempts for 248 yards, yet he clamied he was disappointed with his performance. "I threw one interception and I had 10 incompletions," he said.

"Anytime I miss a pass I don't think I've had a good day. I'm a perfectionist." Waddle was Kamphaus prime receiver with nine catches for 129 yards. Central-Hower's Skeggs said he thought Kamphaus was a perfectionist, too. "He's a super quarterback," Skeggs said. "He does a quick read of the defense and the pass is off and it's right there.

We were more worried about him coming into this game than (D'Jaun) Francisco. It feels good to be right about something tonight." Francisco had 12 carries for 74 yards to lead Moeller's ground game, but he had to be carried from the field when he sprained an already tender ankle. He is expected to return next week. He is Moeller's all-time leading scorer with 268 points and single-season rushing leader with 1,434 set last year. Johnson confirmed that the Eagles' score came on a busted play.

The NCAA said Saturday the universities of Oklahoma and Georgia had succeeded in delaying a hearing on modifying a football television injunction against the NCAA. In a news release, the NCAA said U.S. District Judge Juan C.

Burciaga of New Mexico had set an evidentiary hearing on the requested modification for Nov. 15-16 in Oklahoma City. The hearing will be the NCAA's chance to try to get Burciaga to modify an injunction he issued two years ago in deciding against the NCAA in an anti-trust suit brought by Oklahoma and Georgia. The suit challenged the NCAA's centralized controls of football television rights. Burciaga voided NCAA contracts with ABC and CBS and ruled that the NCAA could never enter into another football television agreement.

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver and the U.S. Supreme Court later upheld the decision, but each suggested, without being specific, that Burciaga "modify" his ruling. If the injunction is not modified in time, the NCAA would not be able to sell the telecast rights of its lower-division football playoffs, which were not a part of the original suit.
