6 The Montana Standard, Butte, Friday, August 10. 1990 Standard: Scarlets repeat 7 glPD3TT How many OlNeills does it talce to play in Shrine Football Game? HULSE CASTELLANO GREER PENN nas ra or two "TTTl fr 1 lly ins One, but four will will do: Damon latest to don West uniform for Great Falls classic By Hudson Willse Standard Sport Editor By Bruce Sayler Standard Sports Writer DAMON DEVIN SEAN COLLINS Damon O'Neill, who will cap a brother act that has placed four O'Neills in the East-West Shrine Game, admits there's some pressure coming from a football family that has performed so often in the postseason classic. "Growing up I could remember when I had the Shrine Game in the back of my head and going to the games," said O'Neill. "So I was kind of brought up with football instilled in my mind. But I love football." O'Neill, six years younger than Devin, the next youngest sibling of Dan and Helen O'Neill's eight children, will play defensive end for the West team in the 44th annual game at Great Falls Saturday night.

The next day the 6-4, 218-pounder out of Butte Central will drive with his father to Pullman, where he will major in sports medicine at Washington State University and walk on with the Cougars' Pac-10 football entry. "It's going to be a tough, haul," said O'Neill. "It's a big jump. I'm not expecting too much. I kind of expect to be moved to an offensive lineman." But O'Neill, 18, is hopeful.

He remembers that his brother Sean weighed less than 200 when he went to Montana State to play football and ended up as a 240-pound defensive end at Carroll College. Sean's roommate at Carroll, first-team NAIA All-American John McDo-nell, the Cougars' offensive line coach, helped steer Damon to the WSU football program. So did Damon's guidance counselor at Butte Central, Bruce Zelinski, whose brother had played for Washington State head Coach Mike Price. But the sports medicine idea came first, and O'Neill expects good results in the classroom. "I pretty much screwed around my first two years (at Butte Central)," said O'Neill.

"I don't plan on doing that in college." Still, he culminated his prep career with a perfect 4.0 grade point his last semester and wound up with a 2.9 cumulative average. "It's better late than never," said O'Neill. Greer then chopped his infield hit that hog-tied Billings; shortstop Keith Gordon and Shave raced home with the winning run. Butte reliever Jose Cardona then came on in the top of the ninth to set the Mustangs down in order and save the victory for Steve Kamhar-ter, 2-1, the fifth of six Copper Kings pitchers used. Miguel Castellano drove in three of Butte's runs, despite a one-for-five performance at the plate.

He slugged a two-run double in the first inning and brought Guggiana home from third with a groundout to the right side of the infield in the third. Conversely to what the Copper Kings did in the first game, they held an 8-3 lead going into the top of the seventh in the late contest only to see the Mustangs fight back for five runs, hold Butte off of the scoreboard in the bottom of the frame and send the game into extra innings. Penn then led off the Butte eighth by drawing a walk from Billings reliever Kevin Berry. Hulse stepped up and crashed his game-winning double deep into center field and Penn, the fastest Copper King, raced around the bases to plate the run. O'Neill earned seven varsity letters at Butte Central while starting two years for the Maroons' football team and his senior campaign for the basketball squad.

His other letter came in track. Sean played in the 1977 Shrine Game. Collins in the 1979 game before playing football at Carroll, Eastern Washington and the University of Montana, and Devin was a Shrine Game participant in 1984. All three also played football at Butte Central. Two other O'Neill brothers, J.

and Brendan, played football for the Maroons. D.J., a Butte dentist, played in the early '70s when Central defeated Butte twice the last Maroon teams to defeat the Bulldogs. Brendan graduated from Butte Central in 1980. Dan, owner of The Toggery and the Royal Motel, was a member of the Maroons' 1948 state championship team. Then there's the the family's No.

1 fan and supporter, of her brothers, Gina, who will fly in from San Francisco for the game, despite the hustle-bustle of getting married in two weeks. Gina also flew in when for Devin's Shrine Game appearance in 1984 and saw Sean and Collins play in the extravaganza. Damon also would have liked to have his athletic sister Kiera in attendance. But she died from leukemia after graduating from Butte Central in 1982. Hot-hitting Dave Hulse went five-for-five and Rusty Greer's infield hit scored Jon Shave with ihe winning run in the eighth inning as the Butte Copper Kings tallied a 10-9 eome-froiti-behind victory over the Billings Mustangs Thursday night in the completion of a Pioneer League baseball game suspended from Wednesday.

Ilulse then doubled home Shannon Penn with nobody out in the bottom of the eighth inning to give the Copper Kings a 9-8 win in the late contest played after the suspended one. Hulse wound up with four doubles over the two games and went eight-for-10 on the evening to oncrease his batting average, which topped the league at .376 going into Tuesday. The Copper Kings trailed the Mustangs 9-5 entering the eighth inning of the game was suspended in the top of the second inning Wednesday after strong winds blew down the right-field fence. Malvin Matos began the game-winning rally when he beat out an infield hit. He scored on consecutive singles by Victor Reyes and Shannon Penn.

Hulse then clubbed a Junior net champs crowne Boxscores from both games will be published Saturday. The Butte Copper Kings, riding an eight-game winning streak, will wind up their homestand and four-game series against the Mustangs with a 7 o'clock game Friday night at Alumni Coliseum. Butte's scheduled starting pitcher is right-hartder Chris Gies, 5-1. double into the right-fieTd corner off of Billings reliever Scott Duff, 2-1, to drive in two runs. Duff hit Shave with a pitch.

Hulse then scored and Shave went to third on Duff's errant pickoff throw that sailed into the Copper Kings bullpen behind first base.

NEW DISCOVERIES BY THE WRINKLE CREAM" PHARMACIST Walleye fishing on upswing HELENA (AP) Fishing enthusiasts in Montana say interest in walleye fishing is growing fast. Jim Kalkofen, former director of the Masters walleye circuit, says there are about 400 to 500 walleye tournaments every year around the country, including a growing number in Montana. Kalkofen says a lot of the interest is sparked because walleye are mysterious and hard to catch. He says Montana appears to have a strong walleye population and may become a prime national tournament area.
