YELLOWJACKETS
OVER MINERS
‘(continued from page 1)
potentially good passer.
Placer had two boys in their
backfield, Yokota and Sinnock, .
who were pains in the neck of .
the Yellowjacket defenders all.
Alternating they carried . night.
the ball for the green-clad_ invaders to a 33-0 lead at the end
of the third quarter. With the
two .retired to the sidelines, the
Yellowjackets pushed over two
quick touchdowns to end the
game with a more respectable
tally.
Statistics gave Nevada City a
decided edge in the game yet as
far as a spectator was concerned
the game was Placer’s all the
way. Nevada ‘City scored 14 first
downs to 10 for Placer and rolled
up 362 vards to.260 for Placer,
Sinrock, a tall boy from Colfax, who kicked them long,
booted the opening kickoff to
Morrison on the five. Morrison
returned to the 12 where he fumbled the ball rolling into the end
zone. Penrose recovered and got
‘to the five before he was hauled
down by a swarm of visitors.
' Three plays gained six yards
and Penrose kicked, the ball al-. ¢
most being blocked. Chris Catlin
took the punt on the Yellowjacket 40 and raced back to the 27.
Jon Lardner fumbled on the secplay and Gordon Lageson recovered for ‘Nevada City on the 31.
Smithson lost four, Penrose’s pass
intended for Ellis was intercepted by Greg Colt on the Yellowjacket 40. Colt reached the 12
yard line before he was shoved
out of bounds. Yokota hit the
line for two and Sinnock went
through@is right guard to the,
three. Ah offside penalty nullified the gain. Yokota picked up
seven yards, but Morris fumbled
and a Yellowjacket recovered on
the eight. The Yellowjackets got
four yards on three plays and
Penrose kicked to Sinnock on the
NC 44, and the big fullback rolled
back to the 27 on the punt return.
Yokota smacked right guard
for eight, Morris failed but Sinnock plowed to the seven for a
firstdown Yokota_cut_back and
slashed through right guard for
the first unconverted TD of the .
game, 942 mmutes out.
Nevada City rolled back on the
kickoff from the 10 yard line to
the Placer 31 but lost the ball
on the Placer’ 27 on a fumbled
lateral. Placer made one first .
down but then was held and had .
to kick on their own 43. A Ne-.
vada City charging player crashed into the punter and the 15yard penalty give Placer a first
down on the mid-stripe. From
there the visitors rolled to a second TD and converted for 13-0.
Lardner carried the ball over the
double line.
An intercepted Penrose pass a
few minutes later set up the next
touchdown. Yokota intercepted
on the Placer 40. Yokota then
flipped two passes, the second
one to Colt good for 20 yards: and
the payoff. Converted the half
ended 20-0.
Yokota took the second half
kickoff on the. 11 and returned to
the 38. The Placer team scored
in seven plays and converted for
27-0.
Nevada City bogged down on
its own 46-yard line trying to
pass on fourth down. On the first
play Yokota passed to Sparks
who ran 35 yards for Placer’s final score for 33-0. Six minutes of
the second half had elapsed.
The Yellowjackets stopped another Placer drive on the three
in the fourth quarter and then
marched: 97 yards in 11 plays to
‘score. Penrose passed to Ellis in
the end zone on the eighth play
but a clipping penalty nullified
the score. Penrose ran around his
‘right end for a sure counter.
Fifty seconds to go the home
team made ‘its second touchdown
with Smithson going-over from
th one-yard line to end a 43-yard
march. ~
