The Leaf-Chronicle ft SPORTS ft www.theleafchronicle.com Saturday, February 19, 2005 Page C6 Campbell leads at rain-soaked Riviera Driver Continued from C1 pgatoup "Honestly, I thought we wouldn't start," said Campbell, who was at 9-under 133. "But the course was great I gave myself a lot of chances and was able to make a lot of putts for a change." Two-time defending champion Mike Weir was among the leaders until the wind fooled him on the par-4 13th. He had 100 yards into the green for his third shot, but went long, then three-putted from 5 feet and wound up with a 73, leaving him seven shots behind in his quest to become the first player to win three straight times at the Nissan Opea Divots: Jonathan Kaye (76) and John Riegger (75) withdrew after the first round No reason was immediately available, but a volunteer working the scorecard came up an excuse. Next to Riegger's name, the volunteer wrote "aqua-phobia" Next to Kaye's name he wrote, "non-swimmer." Allen-bs group was put on the clock for three holes on the back nine. The culprit appeared to be Omar Ure-sti, who took the full 40 seconds over a 3-foot par putt on No.

12. field made the cut to 45. "They called back and said I didn't make the top 20 and the reason, for one, was I didn't have experience on the superspeedways, and two, I wasn't well known among the teams," Greenfield said. "A lot recommended that I go to the Nextel Cup races to meet people. "Getting in a situation like that is politicatmore or less.

It's not to say everybody knew all the drivers they selected, but very few of the team members had heard of me, and that was the biggest reason I didn't make the top 20." In order to be approved for AR-CA, Greenfield attended the Andy Hillenburg Fast Track High Performance Driving School at Lowe's Motor Speedway outside Charlotte, N.C. Greenfield drove around the 15 mile tri-oval at speeds of 175 mph, and it was the first time he'd been on a track bigger than 58 of a mile. Until a deal is finalized, Greenfield will continue to prep his cars for the late-model seasoa "The way I look at things is, if somebody like a team contacts me, I pretend like it never happened," Greenfield said. "If it happens, great; if not, then I'm in the same place I was before I was called. That's how I trained myself.

I don't get too excited about things until it happens. "There have been so many situations like that, and I don't get excited until it comes through. I have to take everything with a grain of salt and continue on with other 'deals. Right now, with so many in the works, it would be a surprise if something didn't come through." Jimmy Trodglen Is sports editor of The Leaf-Chronicle and can be reached by e-mail at jimmytrodglentheleafchronlcle.com or by phone at 245-0261. "As of right now, it's the only thing we have set in stone," Greenfield said.

"Although there's about five different deals in the air different series and some with different teams with car owners and with sponsors but right now all I have nailed down is the one ARCA race." Staying solid on the track Greenfield, who has driven competitively since he was 12, will continue racing late-model events at Nashville's Music City Motorplex and Highland Rim, and has plans to race in a late-model event Ln Virginia in late March. Greenfield was returning home Friday from North Carolina after picking up a late-model chassis. Last season, Greenfield finished ninth in the final points standings at the Music City Motorplex. But Greenfield knows a full-time ride on the ARCA ReMax Series would afford him the chance to move into the NASCAR Busch Series, and ultimately the Nextel Cup Series. "If I get to racing ARCA, I'm racing on the same tracks and I'm in front of them (Nextel teams)," Greenfield said.

"They are already there to see me, they don't have to read a newspaper or magazine. That is going to be a big advantage. It's going to be easier to get a quality ride." Talented kid with no name Greenfield helped his cause over the fall when he was contacted by Roush Racing to participate in a developmental program for future racing ventures. Roush Racing invited 400 drivers and eventually cut its final field down to 20. Green Woods among those yet to inish second round By DOUG FERGUSON Associated Press LOS ANGELES Considering the amount of rain that soaked Riviera, Chad Campbell didn't expect to complete his second round Friday in the Nissan Open.

The bigger surprise was where he finished. Equipped with a vastly improved short game, Campbell nearly holed out two shots and only came close to a bogey once in a round of 6-under 65 that gave him a three-shot lead over Robert Allenby. Whether he keeps that lead won't be determined until today. A four-hour rain delay in the morning made it certain that first-round leader Brian Davis, Tiger Woods and the rest of the late starters would have to return today and face a long day weather permitting. E3 m.

HELP Seventy-two players trudged in from Riviera, some of them with mud speckled on their faces and coating the bottom of their rain pants. They had to return at Campbell 730 am today. "I'm definitely a lot happier than a lot of the guys out there right now," Allenby said after his 67. Davis, who opened with a 65, had the last tee time. He was about to hit his opening tee shot on No.

10 when the siren sounded to suspend the second round because of darkness. None of the late starters finished even nine holes. Woods was 1 under for his round and 5 under for the tournament with his ball in the fifth fairway. Campbell finished about the time Woods headed for the first tee.

"I was just a typical late-model racer and there are 500 to a 1,000 of those around the country with those qualifications." Greenfield has found that if you have the money, people will listen, but if you need the funds, dialogue isn't always a sure thing. "Unless you get tied in with the likes of Roush Racing or Ganassi, the only other way to get in a car is to bring the sponsors to them," Greenfield said. "The issue is finding a sponsor to take to the race team." Looking for more after successfulARCAdebut Greenfield had his first taste of competition on the ARCA Series back in September at Salem, Ind, when he drove to a 12th-place finish in the Eddie Gilstrap Motors ARCA Fall Classic. Driving for Wayne Peterson, Greenfield qualified 32nd, and his 12th-place finish was the team's best showing in six years.

After that experience, Greenfield's intention was landing a full-time ARCA ride before last Saturday's season-opening ARCA race at Daytona International Speedway. Bobby Gerhart won the crash-marred Advance Discounts Auto Parts 200. For now, Greenfield has only one ARCA commitment for this season, a ride for ST2 Motorsports out of Columbia in the March 26 PFG Lester ARCA Series 150 at Nashville Superspeedway. ST2 Motorsports is owned by Scott Hillis, and Greenfield will drive a car Carl Long used a couple of years ago on the Nex-tel Cup Series. Titles Continued from C1 McGavock's William Lowe, 5-0, in the other semifinal.

Forgive Johnson if he hasn't known the names his fallen opposition. "I know everybody who's in the bracket, but I've never wrestled them before," said Johnson, who took fifth at 152 pounds last year. "I never really cared to know their names, though. I've just gotten myself ready for each match and just went out there and tried to win." But Johnson's greatest joy is becoming Rossview's first-ever wresder to compete for a state championship. "If great," said Johnsoa who also runs cross country and plays football for Rossview.

'Tve been working four long years for this and I finally made it my senior year, so Tm just so happy. Our team is very good, so I can't wait to see the next one (from Rossview) make it here." Rossview coach Jason Harrison also beamed. "Programs have to start somewhere," the second-year coach said. "Success breeds success, and David set a benchmark that will bring kids to the program and help it build. He is a hard-working guy and a good kid all around.

You couldn't ask for a better wresder." Minwell surprised the restling scene last year by advancing to the 160-pound final and eventually taking second. This year, Minwell broke the 171-pound bracket and topped Union County's Frankie Morgan to get to his second consecutive championship. And Minwell says he's ready for the battle against Far-ragut's Justin Knox. "It's incredibly exciting to make it to the finals again," Minwell said. "It feels like a real weight has been lifted off my chest.

I think I can take care of business now that I've done that. I just wanted another chance at a state championship, and I got it I'm going to be real sure not to waste it."

"I was thinking, as long as I don't do something stupid, I'll be all right," Weakley said. "I still tried to turn him and tried to do my moves. I ended up not getting him, but I came out with the win." And Clarksville coach Jeff Jordan couldn't hide his excitement about his potential medal-winning "It's been a long time since we won one," Jordan said.

"We're hoping to do it. Clarksville High had a great day. All five that had a chance will place. They all did an awesome job, down to the last one when Michael beat a guy who's been No. 1 most of the year.

Michael found a way to win it." James D.

"It's not a perfect scenario," Loos said. "We are really focused on the OVC right now, but at the same time this game gives our program and our university significant exposure." The Bucs will give the Govs a guaranteed home game next year as part of the deal with the Brack-etBustcr event, but Loos said he is interested to see how his team responds tonight as it is playing in its fifthgame in 10 days.

"This is a day at the office when you try and go in there and do the best job you can," Loos said. "It's hard to get a team emotionally ready like they were (Thursday night against Samford), but we still need to execute and practice doing the right things."

"It's made it difficult because people know what my weaknesses are and know what I'm good at," Minwell said. "So I changed my style a little bit and listened to my coaches for guidance, because they've brought me from the beginning of the year all the way here.

I couldn't have made it without their help." Weakley has improved his place at State the past two seasons. In 2003, Weakley took fifth at 152 pounds and last year he finished fourth at 171. "A state championship is what Tve been working for," said Weakley, who will face Blackman's Kenny Meredith in the 189-pound title match. "I want to be wrestling in that ring in front of all the fans, the TV and everything. I can't wait." During their 67 games of competition, ETSU leads the series 38-29, and the history docs not stop there.

Loos has been friends with ETSU head coach Murray Bartow since he was a teenager in Memphis when Murray's father, Gene Bartow, coached Memphis State while Loos was at Christian Brothers University, also in Memphis. '1 have known Murray for a long time going back to Memphis," Loos said. "I have a lot of respect for him." Last year Bartow led ETSU to the NCAA tournament for the second consecutive year, where the Bucs almost took down No.4-seed-ed Cincinnati, 80-77, in the first round of the tournament. This year has been a different story for both teams, but the Govs are still in the hunt for their third consecutive regular-season OVC title, and Loos said it will be tough home has 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, view of Cumberland, tile countertops floors, huge walk-in closet (or office) In master bedroom, chef's kitchen much more.
