McCrady run) By Star By KEN HAMBLETON Star Sports Writer Waco The McCrady twins, Tim and Kim, raced for a combined 233 rushing yards as the unbeaten Plainview Pirates crushed Utica Centennial 30-0 here Friday in the class C-l state semifinal playoffs. Tim McCrady, who gained 174 yards in the game (121 in the first half), scored twice on runs of two and six yards while Kim gained 60 yards rushing and hauled in three passes for 47 yards, and grabbed an interception. Tim's first touchdown capped a 68-yard drive with eight seconds left in the second quarter that seemed to give the Pirates the second-half Halfback Tim McCrady now has 1393 yards rushing this year and 4350 yards in his three-year career at Plainview. Two interceptions in the third quarter helped the Pirates boost the lead to 20-0. Mike Wragge picked off his first pass of the season and raced 30-yards to score.

Then, on Centennial's next drive, Kim McCrady intercepted a pass that set Plainview up at the Bronco 42. Ten plays later, brother Tim zipped in from the six to score. The Broncos answered by driving to the Plainview 30 before they ran out of downs. The Pirates also stalled on their next drive, but a 60-yard punt by Kim McCrady put Centennial on its own three yard line. On the first play, Tom Scran-ton and Wragge broke through the Bronco line and tackled Centennial quarterback Doug Gloystein in the endzone for a safety.

Pirates Fumble Plainview finally made a mistake and Bronco Barry Leif recovered a fumble at the Bronco 25. But two plays later, Matt Hoffman moved in front of Centennial receiver Doug Barth and intercepted at the 43-yard line, setting up the final Plain-view score, a one-yard quarter-back sneak by Gordon Rasmussen. The 43-yard drive was highlighted by a 28-yard screen pass from Rasmussen to Kim McCrady and a nine-yard pass to think it gave us the momentum we needed in the second half." "They (Centennial) really scared us," Washburn added. "We hadn't played that big a team all year." "I thought the pass rush we put on especially that of Mike Krueger and Rod Horst put the pressure on their passing game and gave us some good breaks," said Washburn, whose team is now 10-0. Centennial coach Rod Boss, whose team ended 5-3-1 said he thought the interceptions broke the game for the Broncos.

"We didn't play all that bad," Boss said. "We got beat by Platteview the same way. The big plays just broke the whole thing open." to go to the air in desperation. Trying to maintain momentum, Nickel put a pass up for Langin only to have it intercepted by Neumann's Glen Jansa on the Cav 15, ending Gibbon's last threat.

It looked bleak for the Buff backers. But sophomore quarterback Jerry Nickel wouldn't let things get too far out of hand. The strong-armed thrower pumped deep to receiver Jim Langin twice to set up clutch Gibbon touchdowns and tighten the game. After Neumann's final Davis Goes For Record Manhattan, Kan. Senior Tony Davis should be assigned No.

62 and his position should be called "guard-back" in Nebraska's football terminology. Guards, who are required to wear numbers in the sixties, also are required to do a lot of blocking. They don't have to carry the football (unless Coach Tom Osborne has dreamed up a guard-around play). Well, Tony Davis does both and does well at either assignment. Just take a few minutes the next time you watch the Huskers to see what No.

25 does on a few plays. You'll see he gets his yards the hard way, just as he gets his blocks by-sticking his head in the hole and driving or by sticking his head into an opponent and driving to create the hole. That's why the Tecumseh flash is sometimes called "Tough Tony" out of respect for the job he does on a football field. Barring injury in the remaining three regular season games and the bowl game wherever it is Davis probably will end his collegiate career as Nebraska's all-time leading rusher. Davis goes into Saturday's Big Eight battle here against Kansas State needing just 11 yards to tie Bobby Reynolds' career rushing record of 2,196 yards, which is second best in NU history.

Davis should pass that milestone on the second or third carry against the Wildcats maybe even the first and then set his sights on becoming No. 1. That mark is 2,420 yards, held by Jeff Kinney, now a tough running back, in the NFL for Kansas City. Tony is just 236 yards short of Kinney's record. Most Valuable Husker? Coach Tom Osborne said Davis, who is a mere 5-11, 214-pounder, is "as valuable a player as we have" in more ways than as a runner and blocker.

"Tony doesn't get many calls where he has a lot of running room and he's as good a receiver as we have," Osborne said. Davis so far this year has rushed 97 times for 419 yard for a 4.3-yard average per attempt. He also has caught nine passes for 107 yards and one touchdown. "He's also a tremendous leader," Osborne added. "He talks to the team before every game.

The most important thing in Tony's mind is Nebraska winning. That's not the way it always is with seniors, especially ones who have had some previous success. By then, they usually start thinking about personal goals." Davis showed his "team" spirit a year ago when he accepted a switch from I-back, where he gained 1,158 yards as a sophomore, to fullback, where blocking is just as important (if not more so) than carrying the ball. Will his size keep him from making it as a pro? Not if Tony has anything to say about it. "There are a lot of pro backs smaller than me," he remarked to Big Eight Skywriters before the start of this season.

"As a for instance, I'm bigger than Walt Garrison or Jim Kiick and I can block better than all of them." Despite Davis' nearness to the all-time rushing record at Nebraska, he might not hold it for long. Sophomore Monte Anthony already has rushed for 1,150 yards, twelfth best in history, and still has a chance to play in at least 27 more games, not counting possible bowls when he's a junior and senior.

1-ranked Class C-l power Wahoo-Neumann. Although the Buffaloes didn't play dead, the Cavaliers stampeded the Gibbon defenses for 307 yards rushing enroute to a thrilling 27-21 victory in first-round action of the state C-l playoffs. Nuckolls On Line By TOM VINT Superior The football cham-championship of Nuckolls County, also known as the first Nebraska state Class playoff championship, is bound to be a real nail-biter. That's if past performance has anything to say about it. Nelson, second-ranked and unbeaten, ensured itself of a spot in the championship game by humiliating No.

5 Homer, 48-14 here Friday afternoon. Meanwhile, No. 3 Lawrence was tramping Callaway 41-16, right down the road at Blue Hill. Nelson was the only team to beat Lawrence during the regular season, 18-14 in the fourth game. It went down to the final eight seconds of that game Mike Krueger.

Rasmussen connected on nine of 12 passes for 103 yards. The Pirates dominated, running 70 plays to Centennial's 54. Plainview rolled 410 yards, 247 rushing and 173 passing, while the Broncos gained 104 rushing and 79 passing. Northeast Power "I think we really struck a blow for Northeast Nebraska football," said Plainview coach Warren Washburn. "Everybody played well especially the defense.

We've allowed just two touchdowns in our past seven games and weren't about to let them get one on us today." "I thought the first half was pretty even, except for our late score," Washburn said. "But I the Buffalo workhorse. McConnell, who was held under his 116-yard per game average with 86 yards rushing for the night, scampered the last 23 to shake the Wahoo crowd back to life. The score was 27-21 with 8:11 to play. Neumann then did what it did very well all evening run the ball.

The wishbone of coach John Lawlor's crew was overwhelming to the Gibbon defenders. Led by running back Pat Dailey's 147-yard effort, Neumann played ball control much of the game. As the game tightened in the closing minutes, the Cavaliers continued driving until a Dailey fumble permitted Gibbon one last hope from its own 15. With 5:19 left, Gibbon marched to the midfield stripe, where a motion penalty nullified a first down and forced the Buffs Elgin Tops Wilsonville Elgin Kent Beckman returned a kickoff 78 yards for a touchdown Friday to pull Elgin away to a 30-14 victory over Wilsonville in the semifinals of the Nebraska State eight-man football playoffs. Beckman's run, which is just two yards short of the length of the 80-yard eight man field, came in the third quarter, right after Wilsonville had scored its second touchdown to pull with two points of Elgin, at 16-14.

Beckman scored again in the fourth quarter, to raise the score to its final tally. Steve Heithoff scored Elgin's first two touchdowns, one on 42-yard pass from quarterback Cary Sutton, the other on a 12-yard run. Quarterback Randy Presler scored one Wilsonville touchdown on a 22-yard keeper, and passed 35 yards to Brad Balluu for the other. Heithoff finished with 105 yards on 19 carries and Beckman, who finished with 86 yards on 22 carries. Elgin had 14 first downs and 319 total offensive yards.

Wilsonville gained nine first downs and 175 total offensive yards. The win gives Elgin a 10-0 mark, while Wilsonville ended the season 8-1-1.

Adams Rips Sidney (AP) Steve Buss and Tony Boeve combined for five thouchdowns Friday, and Adams clobbered Sidnev St. Patrick's, 46-28 in the first round of the Nebraska eight-man football playoffs. Buss scored on runs of 19, 15 and five yards, while Boeve was on the receiving end of a 10-yard touchdown strike from Jeff Veerhusen, and hit paydirt on a 25-yard jaunt.

The visiting Hornets ran up a total of 367 yards on the ground in racing to their '10th win against no lossec this season.

Scribner, 9-1, will seek its second straight state title Friday afternoon when the Trojans travel to Grant to battle the top-ranked Plainsmen, a 13-8 winner over Pleasanton. Scribner was the Sunday Journal and Star's Class state champion last year before the playoff system began.

Benne, suffering through a lackluster first-half passing, hitting only one of four with one interception, made the halftime switch to halfback and carried 10 times in the third quarter for 84 yards. Benne raced around left end for 41 yards down to the Friend 24 midway through the quarter as the Trojans took it in from there in four plays for a 12-3 lead on Don Von Seggern's 21-yard reverse. Thomas Run Thomas tacked on the two-point conversion to put Scribner up 14-3. Friend, fourth-rated in Class C-2 with a 6-1-3 record, came right back going 71 yards in just three plays. After two plays lost five yards, Rex Eberspacher found Kirk Kellough behind the secondary and connected for a 76-yard scoring strike.

Benne kept the Scribner offense rolling on its next possession, picking up 27 yards rushing as the Trojans marched 80 yards for the decisive touchdown and a 20-10 margin. Benne, 5-11 and 167 tossed a halfback pass to Von Seggern for 19 yards in the drive then switched to a shotgun quarterback and threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Von Seggern. Friend used its razzle-dazzle offense to close within 20-18 on a 15-yard Eberspacher to Jack Stutzman pass and a two-point conversion when Kellough took a pitch from Rod Thcis, holding for the kick, and found Jachim alone in the right corner of the end zone. "We had to get our running attack going," Scribner coach Richard Tingelhoff said of Benne switch. Change Momentum "We needed to change the momentum and stimulate some offense.

It was all or nothing for us. "We've always had Jeff (Helgenberger, the second-string quarterback) ready and were waiting for the right time to spring this (the switch). I felt this was it," Tingelhoff said. The Trojan defense limited Friend to 47 yards rushing, holding all-state candidate Kellough to 20 yards, on 10 carries 95 below his per game average.

Three plays later, Dan Foster swept left end on a reverse for six points. Down 27-14, the Buffs tried the obvious an onsides kick. And it worked. With the ball on the Cavalier 47, Nickel soon found Langin for a 34-yarder to the 23 (following a holding penalty).

The passing threat then opened the hole for a draw play to Kevin McConnell, throw touchdown passes. He hit his favorite target, 6-2, 180-pound end Roger Biltoft for scores of 58 and 49 yards to unleash Nelson's potent offense. And the big senior also hit Roger's brother, Nick, a junior, for another six pointer from 36 yards out. "Peterson and Biltoft had 10 touchdown pass plays coming into this game," DeBoer explained. "In fact, Biltoft had a string of 10 straight games from last season into this season where he'd caught touchdown passes." DeBoer explained his club felt the need to pass early in the season due to offensive line troubles running the ball.

The line came around about mid-season, however, allowing the Tigers to put passing in the back seat. The rushing game carried most of the load Friday afternoon as Nelson gained 408 yards on 56 rushes. Tailback Steve Gebers led the parade with 13 carries for 113 yards, all in the first half.

Poppe's score came with just 5:23 left on the clock, and lifted the Plainsmen from an 8-7 deficit.

The game was played in very high winds, and Anderson took to the air just once, but it was a big one a 30-yard strike to Mike Barry with 3:28 left in the first quarter to send the hosts out on top, 7-0. Barry's touchdown was the only score in the first three quarters of the game, and it came just two plays after Grant's Kevin Hatch recovered a Pleasanton fumble. The Bulldogs came back to take the lead in the fourth quarter, their score also being set up by a fumble, which was recovered by Wayne Shafto on the Grant 43. Six plays later, halfback Scott Phillips hit end Dave Hartman in the end zone, and Dennis Dahm rammed in for the two-point conversion to give Pleasanton the lead with 9:07 left in the game. Grant fumbled on its next possession, and things began to look bleak for the hosts, but the Plainsman defense forced the Bulldogs to punt.

And it frightens Nelson to think about it. "I didn't like that one article in the paper that said a team which defeated another team during the regular season would likely lose in a rematch during the playoffs," said Nelson coach Gary DeBoer. "I'd like to think we could beat Lawrence again next week." Friday afternoon, DeBoer's players had a chance to look ahead. The Tigers, now 9-0-1, were easily strolling to a 28-0 halftime lead over Homer while listening to reports of the Lawrence game coming over the PA system. Quarterback Lorrell Peterson did what he'd done through Nelson's early season games In the fumble category, both teams contributed, with Lawrence fumbling seven times and losing two, while Callaway mishandled the ball 10 times and lost it twice.

Lawrence chalked up 10 first downs to just three for Callaway. Lawrence scored early, a pile of Panthers pouncing on a Bear fumble on the Callaway three-yard line. Kohmetscher bolted in on from the three on the next play to make it Lawrence 7, Callaway 0. Callaway, 8-0, going into the game, came back quick, as Monte Birnie scampered 34 yards for a Bear score after a Lawrence turnover. Callaway quarterback Steve Axtell passed to Stan Weatherly for the two-point conversion to put the Bears on top, 8-7.

Taking advantage of another Lawrence turnover, Birnie scored on an 11-yard run late in the first half, then banged in for two more points on the conversion to make it 16-7, Callaway at the half. Kohmetscher opened the scoring in the third stanza, hitting Rick Hoelting with a 12-yard aerial to bring Lawrence back into the game at 16-14. The Panthers went ahead for good a short time later when Lyle Pohlmeier picked up a fumble in the air, and raced 30 yards unmolested for a score. Lawrence will play Nelson in the championship Class playoffs Friday. Lawrence, now 9-1, lost its only regular-season game to Nelson.
