Put on a football jersey and black paint under the eyes of Lassen High School girls and they turn into animals. This year's game at Arnold Field on Wednesday, Sept. 28 featured 57 girls with the seniors and freshmen clobbering the juniors and sophomores 28-6.

Both teams came out ready for combat. Each team practiced for a week before the game working on plays such as "the wedge," slant passes, double reserves, Statue of Liberty, double handoffs and Miami Dolphin-like laterals following completed passes. "This is big stuff," said seniorfreshmen coach Gary Spafford at halftime. "The girls are pumped and came out here to win. There's no letting up until the final whistle." Four-year powder puff standout Jill Neuenschwander and Darcy Miles of the seniorfreshmen team combined for three touchdowns to put the game away early.

Neuenschwander scored on runs of 50 yards and 25 yards, while Miles rattled off a 45-yard run. The seniors and freshmen led 21-0 at the half. The middleclassmen noticebaly pumped entering the second half and seemingly ready to eat into the lead, but the seniors and freshmen turned up the defensive pressure and tacked on another score. Tasha Schantz caught a 13-yard touchdown pass from Lindsay Smith in the fourth quarter. From then on, the juniors and sophomores posed no threat, but managed to score during the final seconds, when quarterback Mary Bianchini burrowed across the goal line on a two-yard sneak.

Senior kicker Brooke Bauer was 4-for-4 on extra-point attempts. Spafford, who improve his powder-puff coaching record to 3-1-1, coached with Kevin English, while Rich Robles and Devin Crosby directed the middleclassmen. Tony Wynn and Steve Robertson were the officials. The class of 1995 players have never lost a powder puff game.

The four finished at 14-under-par in scramble play over 18 holes at Emerson Lake Golf Course on Saturday, Sept. 24. On hole No. 5, Ken Loflin knocked his tee shot within seven feet of the cup to win the closest-to-the-pin contest, and Thomas Brown belted a 315-yard drive on the sixth hole to win the longest-drive contest.

The tournament is designed to raise money for the Lassen College baseball program. The outfield fence was replaced last week at Memorial Park. The North Section has a new football playoff format this year. The Northern Athletic League has been divided into large and small divisions with the top-two teams from each advancing to the post season. The Eastern Athletic League's top-two teams will play the NAL's large teams, and the third-place team in the EAL will be paired up with one of the top-two small teams from the NAL.

A wildcard will come out of the EAL and play the leftover NAL team. The Westside and Butte View leagues will battle it out themselves. Whew, do you got that? Los Angeles Harbor Community College will arrive in Susanville on Saturday, Dec. 17 to battle the Lady Cougars in a preseason game.
