O-40 POSITION THEMSELVES FOR STRETCH RUN
WIN GOING AWAY
Well, sometimes it does pay to be a little tardy. Johnny Pens, who is notorius for doing a Marvin Barnes imitation, the former Sprits of St. Louis basketball team all-star center, & whose favorite saying was "game time is on time". Well as usual, Pens was a bit tardy. But, as soon as Tim Kelley subbed off, Pens was on, made a run, collected a through ball & finished by burying a rocket past the startled Vetta Blue keeper who had no chance. That put SSL up 1-0. That was just the start.
Pens continued to pour it on, collecting a total of 5 goals on the evening along with a helper as well as contributions from Steve Rankin with 2 & 2, Tim Kelley with 2 goals, Bob Janko with 1 & 1, Jim Ahearn & Joe Behr with a goal apiece & newcomer Mike Hartsook with a helper.
This match was unusual in one very large respect. There was no halftime. With the new Vetta policy of a running 45 minute clock, there was no interval & no changing ends. Strange.
Next week is a big match with huge ramifications. SSL will meet old friend Maddox @ 7:35. A win in this match would position SSL for another berth in the final. A loss, well, it would be much more difficult. So, join us for this friendly get-together. It'll be entertaining at the very least, &, if Pens is tardy, well, who knows what'll happen. See you then. Thanks for reading.
p.s. Those of you that are looking for the Louisville pictures, just need to scroll down past a couple articles for the "Louisville Experience". Enjoy!
