62 The Boston Sunday Globe Septeniix i 25. 1983 tarts fast jumps rown's rl oiiMiexes MaFvara UMass rr on ate errors 'V -ni i nil-'T By Joe Concannon Globe Staff When Troy Turner ran back an interception for a touchdown 12:43 into the opening quarter at Harvard Stadium yesterday and George Pa-poutsidis kicked the extra point, the University of Massachusetts had scored more points (21) and had run for almost as much yardage (98) as it had in two previous games. It was UMass 21, Harvard 0. What happened in the next 45 minutes was enough to put the 12,500 who sat through it to sleep. UMass put its offense into mothballs, and the Crimson apparently didn't have much of one to begin with.

"We put our multiflex defense against their multiflex offense," said peppery Jimmy Reid, the UMass defensive coordinator. "It was as plain and simple as that." UMass went on to a 21-7 victory (and do they ever enjoy scores like this in Amherst) and it wasn't until sophomore quarterback Brian Harvard's Steve Ernst comes close to this reception, but By Ernie Roberts Special to The Globe PROVIDENCE Brown appeared In charge. Debite giving Rhode Island the ball on a third-period interception, it was leading. 10-7, and had the Rams third down and 9 on their 36. Then Rhody quarterback Dave Wienke, scrambling wildly to his somehow got the ball to flanker Dameon Reilly 20 yards down-.

field. And the sophomore from the Bronx with exactly one year of football experience scampered home a la Stanley Morgan to complete the 64-yard scoring play. That clinched the state championship for Rhode Island because it converted another interception and two fumble recoveries into two more TDs and a field goal for its eventual 30-16 triumph. "Wienke had been telling me all week that if he had to roll out, I should break downfield," said-the exuberant Reilly after his first varsity touchdown. i "I thought the Brown defender might deflect the ball but he just missed." The play was supposed to be a short hook to the URI tight end for a first down, but Brown's blitzing safety flushed Wienke out of the pocket.

heaven Reilly got wide open because i threw a floater to him," said Wienke. "That is just about as far as I can throw it going to my left." Ubiquitous Rhody sophomore Jeff Chenard then recovered two fumbles, setting up a 21-yard field goal by coach Bob Griffin's barefooted son Mike, and thwarting Brown at the URI 29 when it was still only 17-10. A 32-yard scoring run by Steve Caizzi was supposed to go inside but saw daylight outside right end" Wienke) and a 34-yard interception return by reserve safety Pat Lawson clinched Rhody's 11th victory in this 69-game series. Brown, which had been impressive while upsetting Yale a week ago, was extremely erratic on offense yesterday before the 13,700 in Brown Stadium. White came in to relieve starter Chuck Colombo that the Crimson remotely showed signs of life.

In his first series in the third quarter, White took Harvard in for its only touchdown. The Crimson completed just six of 20 passes for 44 yards and had three interceptions. UMass quarterback Jim Simeone completed five of 12 for 78 yards with 38 coming on one play and also had three intercepted. "We had a great game plari' said UMass safety Jack Shay, who recovered a fumble, broke up three passes. Intercepted once and.

was in on seven tackles as the swarming UMass defense never let the Crimson get "We knew we could shut down their running game and the line put pressure on the quarterback all day." "We learned a lot out there," said Harvard coach Joe Restic, whose team broke from the starting blocks with a 43-14 win over Columbia last week. "Our defense came to life in the second half. They scored on that early pass play, their one drive and the interception. After that, it was a struggle both ways." Indeed. It sure started off, however, as if it; would be a UMass rout.

Simeone moved the team 75 yards in seven plays, drilling a perfect pass to brother Bob on a 38-yard scoring play at 3:52 of the first quarter. "It's our flag play, a one-on-one," said Jim. Bob raced up the left sidelines, slipped behind defender Mike Dixon, and three strides later was In the end zone. 44 The next time the 21 Minutemen had the at cambrktg. ball, Simeone stuck to Sjfo ol the ground and let UM Bob Simeone 38 pass from Frank Fay and Rich- ard Jenkins take MTroyTurnef21WerMptionn turns grinding it out mm (Papoutsidis ki i Rfl.

Colombo rolled left, looked for O'Brien in the end zone and was -swarmed under at the 2.

"We had that fourth- I down gamble," said Restic, "and that was the -critical situation in the game." After UMass went nowhere and had to punt out to the 49, White who will probably start next week against Army came in and stayed T-on the ground in an 1 1 -play drive that was fin-ished off by Mark Vignali's 5-yard scoring run -at 5:08 of the third quarter. The last-gasp bid to make a run at it expired with 6:37 to go, when the Crimson's Jim Villanueva punted into the end zone from the UMass 45 for a net gain of 25. v. -mmx am For instance, veteran quarterback Joe Potter was intercepted five times and lost two of the three Brown fumbles.
