Page 8 WELLSVILLE DAILY REPORTER, WELLSVILLE, NEW YORK Tuesday. November 21, 1972 AI leg any Pre vie A rebuilding cage season for Belfast BELFAST The coming basketball season will be one of rebuilding for Belfast Central School, according to new coach Mike Nelson. The Bulldogs, with several successful seasons behind them, made the second round of the sectionals with a 14-6 record last year, but 10 of the 12 members of that team graduated, Nelson said. Returning are Jim Mountain, a 5-11 senior and "the six or seven man" on last year's squad, and Dick Farwell, also 5-11 and a senior. Mountain will definitely be a starter, Nelson said, but that's about as far as he can go in naming his first five.

However, Rick Slac, a 5-11 junior who led last year's junior varsity in scoring, should see considerable action, along with Tad White, a 5-9 junior guard also up from JV. Not only has Nelson inherited a team with no returning starters, but, according to the new coach, a couple of big men from last season's junior varsity have transfered to other schools. "It doesn't look too good," Nelson admits. The coach said he is encouraged, however, by the performance of two freshman, who may be kept on the varsity, and the over-all talent on the Belfast freshman squad. "There are actually very few boys in the sophomore and senior class here," Nelson explained.

"Only three seniors came out for the team and about as many sophomores. The two freshman who could aid the varsity, according to Nelson, are Mark Sweet and Mike Vienna, son of former coach Paul Vienna, a vice principal at Tim Forhan leads AU Jayvee play ALFRED Tim Forhan, freshman from Wellsville, scored 11 points to lead the Jayvees in a losing clash with the Varsity 87-56 as Alfred University staged its basketball preview last night.

Understandably, Nelson lists height and experience as the Bulldog's weaknesses, while he sees team speed as a plus. "Experience makes quite a bit of difference," he emphasized. The new coach said he would like to "at least break even," this season. "On any given day, we could probably beat anybody," he said, "but we could also lose to anybody." Belfast opens its season Dec. 8 with Friendship, a Class Northern Division opponent Nelson said should be strong.

Angelica and Rushford should be the other top teams in the league, according to Nelson. IMFL standings National Conference Wash Dallas N.Y. Giants St. Louis Phila East w.l. 9 1 8 2 6 4 2 7 2 7 t.

Mosher was the unanimous choice of the selection committee for the award named in honor of Alfred J. Bunnell, late coach of Coudersport High School. The presentation was made by Principal Burton Shirey of Coudersport.

Mosher is the second coach of a team below the Class A level to receive the award. Cuba is a Class school. Coach Lou Molisani of Wellsville High School and several of his top players were among about 250 people in attendance at the Castle Restaurant. Boliver Coach John Dunsmore also attended with several of his players. Marty Sampko, quarterback of undeated Bradford Christian, received the player of the year award.

(UPI) Dick Lyon, associate football coach at West Point, was named Monday as chairman of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's athletic and physical education departments. (Lyon at one time was coach of football at Wellsville Central School) Lyon, who coached RPI grid- ders in 1955-57, has been at Army for six seasons. He will assume his new RPI post in January, succeeding Ed Jucker, who resigned last April.

Lyon, 48, a native of Elmira Heights and a 1947 graduate of Colgate University, taught and coached on the high school level for seven years before coming to RPI originally. Before going to West Point, he served as head football coach at Ithaca College for nine seasons, with his teams compiling a 49-20 record. STATELINE, Nev. (UPI) Muhammad Ali, as he has been doing for more than a year and over a dozen fights, marks time against light heavyweight champion Bob Foster tonight when the two meet over 12 rounds at the Sahara-Tahoe Hotel. "Let's face it," Ali said on the eve of the fight, "I have everything to lose and nothing to gain by fighting Foster, but I'm the man the public wants to see, so I keep on fighting." What Ali is fighting for tonight is a $250,000 guarantee, which would give him a ring bankroll this year of over $2 million.

He's also fighting to keep in shape while hopefully waiting for heavyweight champion Joe Frazier to give him a return crack at the title. Ali, as might be expected, is the favorite, but at odds of only 7-5, down from 12-5 earlier mostly because the former heavyweight king has been experiencing breathing problems in Stateline's high, thin air.

Voorhis sees hopes high for Angelica Redskins eye title after 24-13 victory By ANDYSHARP ANGELICA five of his first seven players back from last season, coach Bruce Voorhis is cautiously optimistic about Angelica Central School's basketball prospects this year. "It's my fifth year and this is the most potential of any team I've had," Voorhis said. "It's been kind of a rebuilding program since I've been here, but we sort of got over the hump last season," he added. Angelica had its first winning season under Voorhis last year. While Voorhis lacks "one really big man" he would like, he said he has "good quickness in the guards," and over-all scoring balance.

His best shooters, he said, are returning starters Bob Aronson, the 5-11 team captain, and Bill Beckwith, a 5-10 junior. Both averaged better than 10 points a game last season. Dan Green, 6-3, Kevin Ezell, 62 and Don Scholia, 5-9, are the other veterans. Voorhis said he wants to play Green and Ezell at the same time, but both have been primarily centers. Green pulled down about 10 rebounds a game last season.

His team "is potentially better than last year," the coach said, "but the competition is tougher." To improve its record, Angelica "will have to shoot for a better percentage and improve ball-handling and defense," according to Voorhis. A 6-1 sophomore, Kevin Dewey, will see considerable action, the coach said. "He has a fine shot," he explained, "but needs more confidence. Voorhis said he likes to bring a sophomore up to varsity "if he's going to play. By the time he's a senior," the coach said, "he'll be a leader." Despite the good team speed, Voorhis said his squad "won't run just for the sake of running.

You don't win ball games on 15- footers," he emphasized, "You win them on second efforts," he said, explaining that Angelica will work for good percentage shots and offensive rebounds. He said Rushford and Friendship should be the toughest competition in this year's Class Northern Division. While Voorhis is "taking a wait and see attitude," he said he "would be disappointed if we don't get at least 12 or 13 wins this year." Angelica opens its season against Jasper, a Steuben County school, Dec. 1. WASHINGTON (UPI George Allen is hoping the San Francisco 49ers can provide a Thanksgiving blessing in the Washington Redskins' bid for their first division championship since 1942.

"Now the pressure is on Dallas for Thursday," said a beaming Allen after the Redskins rallied from a 10-0 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons, 2413, in the nationally televised Monday night pro game. "We're going to sit back and watch that one." Washington's seventh straight victory was sparked by Larry Brown, who caught a pass for a touchdown and ran for one while surpassing the rushing mark for the season. The win kept the Redskins a full game ahead of the defending world champion Cowboys, who play San Francisco in a nationally televised game Thanksgiving. Allen was in almost exuberant spirits after his East Division leaders boosted their record to 9-1 and moved within one victory over Green Bay clinching no worse than the NFC wild card playoff berth as best second-place team. Brown, who had 82 yards to boost his 10-game total to a NFL-leading 1,075, plunged one yard to score in the second quarter and took an 18-yard Billy Kilmer pass in the third period to put the Redskins ahead to stay 14-10.

Kilmer hit Jerry Smith from 12 yards out in the third quarter for an insurance touchdown after Brig Owens recovered a fumble. $7.20 double at Batavia BATAVIA, N. Y. Heavy Duty Gene took the lead early and held on to edge Regal Brook by a nose and win the $2,000 feature Monday night at Batavia Downs. The winner, driven by Larry Manges, paced the mile in 2:09.1 and paid $22.60, $12.40 and $5.60.
