Kootenay Savings Where You Belong ‘Offence in Grey Cup spotlight TORONTO (CP) — Aficionados of defensive foot ball would be best advised to avoid the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Sunday. the Western final to rally the Regi Players and coaches from both teams are predicting a shootout in the 77th Grey Cup, and with good reason. The two clubs struck for a total of 137 points ina pair of regular: season CFL matchups. OFFENCE Quarterbacking is a strongpoint for both clubs, but John Gregory and Al Bruno’s toughest decision during the last two weeks has been naming a starter. Kent Austin, who threw 16 touchdown passes during the regular season, will start for Saskatchewan despite suffering a knee injury in Tom Burgess tossed most of his 22 TD passes in the first half of the season, but came off the bench gang against Edmonton Tony Champion led the league in receiving this season, but Saskatchewan's Ray Narcisse is his equal as-a deep threat. Slotbacks DiPietro and Jeff Fairholm of the Riders were pitted against each other for this year's outstanding Cats counting on Kerrigan at QB TORONTO (CP) When Al Bruno found out Todd Dillon wasn’t feeling too hot, he told Mike Kerrigan to start warming up As expected, the Hamilton coach announced Friday that Kerrigan will start at quarterback when the Tiger Cats face the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the Grey Cup on Sun day Kerrigan, who guided the Ticats to the CFL championship in 1986, played the second half of last week’s Eastern final against Winnipeg, and threw for almost 700 yards and seven touch: downs in a pair of regular-season wins over Saskatchewan. Bruno’s decision was made easier when Dillon came down with the flu * earlier in the week. The former Ottawa pivot, who helped the Ticats to four straight victories at the end of the season after Kerrigan hurt his throwing shoulder, was an early depar ture from Friday’s 90-minute workout at theSkyDome **Mike’s been throwing the ball well and Dillon’s weak,’’ said Bruno, ad. ding that Kerrigan's experience was a factor in his decision. An East all-star, Kerrigan com. pleted $1 per cent of his passes for 3,635 yards and 20 TDs before being hurt against the Blue Bombers on Oct 15. The four-year veteran threw for five touchdowns against the Roughriders at home on Aug. 18, but he will face a Saskatchewan defence Sunday that made life miserable for Edmonton's Tracy Ham in last week’s Vestern final upset **We beat them twice and that might gives us an edge,”’ said Kerrigan, who is well aware of the pressure that could come from the Rider defence “You've got to throw it quickly.”” Kerrigan, 29, is making his second Grey Cup appearance. He went to the air for 300 yards and a pair of touch- downs while being named offensive player of the year in Hamilton’s 39-15 win over the Eskimos in 1986. TORONTO (CP) — Nothing will erase Tracy Ham's disappoin tment in not reaching the Grey Cup this year But the Edmonton Eskimos quarterback did concede being named the CFL's outstanding player Friday night had eased the pain somewhat Ham was one of three Eskimo winners at the league’s annual ceremonies, held at the Harbor Castle Convention Centre. It’s the first time in 35 years the Eskimos dominate winners have not received Schenley Awards. The distillery dropped its long-time sponsorship earlier this year The other winners, in balloting by selected members of the Foot- ball Reporters of Canada, were: centre Rod Connop, Edmonton, top offensive lineman; linebacker Danny Bass, Edmonton, . best defensive player; slotback Rocky DiPietro, Hamilton, outstanding Canadian, and defensive back Stephen Jordan, Hamilton, top rookie.

The Castlegar Rebels took no pity on the Warriors in a 12-1 thumping in front of about 200 fans at the Com munity Complex Friday night. The game left_no doubt why the Warriors find themselves on the bottom looking up with two wins in 17 games this season Coming off the ice, a Warriors player offered his own assessment “Wwesuck,” he sait: The game featured a pair of firsts for the Rebels as goaltender Matt Kolle got a win in his season debut between the pipes and up and down winger Cory Ross scored his first goal in junior hockey Remi Lavallee scored four goals, in- cluding a Jari Kurri-like one-timer from the circle on the powerplay, and Dwayne Dergousoff completed his hat trick with two goals eight seconds apart in.the third period to pace the Rebels. Warriors coach Lloyd McLellan played musical goaltenders with Darrin Miracle and Kevin Dreany, who both saw action in every period McLellan’s strategy — whatever it was — didn’t work as the Rebels scored five goals in the first and five more in the second. The 12 goals on 29 shots gave the Rebels a .413 batting average in the goal scoring department -» and gave McLellan a headache “| don’t want to talk to you, I have nothing to say,”” McLellan said after the game. In the other dressing room, Rebels co-coach Don Soroke — who ran the entire show with Ed Cooper unable to make the game — was a little more talkative Soroke said the game was payback for the Rebels who lost 11-4 to the Warriors in their last meeting Nov. 4 “They (the Rebels players) didn’t need very much preparation time,”” he said. “They remembered last time, so yeah, there’s the revenge there." On the question of starting Kolle for factor the first time in net, Soroke said it was team a little added motivation, though backup Rick Ed wards has a strained knee and regular starter Stan Makortoff watched from the stands with a case of influenza and back troubles Soroke gave to give his Kolle a confidence boost before the game, signing the 16 year-old io a contract 20 minutes before the opening faceoff Subscribing to the Ron Hextall Greena By ED MILL Staff Writer Rebels coach Don Soroke won't say it often, but this time he admits he made a mistake It was Soroke along with co coach Ed Cooper and the Rebels management who let Castlegar native David Green get away Green was cut from the Rebels early in training camp this year and the Rossland Warriors were right there 10 pick him up prior to the start of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League season. To date, the 16-year-old brother of Spokane Chiefs hockey star Travis Green has 24 points, in cluding 12 goals in 17 games and is starting to blossom in a Warriors uniform “That was a mistake,"’ said Soroke. ‘*We should have never let himgo.”* Green has already come back to haunt the Rebels — though he couldn't do much in a 12-1 Warriors loss Friday night. But he Coach says cutting mistake scored a hat trick and picked up three assists in the 11-4 Warriors victory Nov. 3 Green is a bright spot on a Rossland team that is having a bleak season with just two wins in 17 games as of Friday. He logs 30 to 35 minutes of ice time a game, playing on the power-play and penalty-killing units and also his regular shift Though his parents live in Castlegar, and Green would have preferred to play here originally, he feels the Warriors were the best thing to happen to his hockey career and he agrees with Soroke’s assessment “Yeah, they made a big (mistake),”” he said in an interview after Friday's game. ‘They didn’t even give me a chance. I was gone in the first cuts. They told me it was my size and my age but they didn’t even look at my skills."* Soroke hints that things would be different if he had it to do all over again school of goaltending, Kolle was often out of his crease making passes or clearing the puck out of his end “It keeps you in the game ets burned, I'll talk to him,”’ said Soroke. ‘‘But until he said “As soon as he § last year’ with the Nelson ba and midget teams who was ecstatic abou and playing his first game Kolle getting signed respond Now he’s looking forward to seeing more action and is especially hopeful of getting a start against the league leading Nelson Maple Leafs who cut him earlier this season “Tell Nelson that I’m going to net one (score) on them before the season's finished,” said Kolle For Ross, who isn’t on the team for his goal scoring abilities, his first of the season is, hopefully he says, a sign of things to come. But the KIJHL scoring leaders probably aren't shaking in their skates yet “It was a good feeling 195-pound said the solid six-foot, forward “PIL just take it from here and see what happens.”” David Vecchio, Dale Bonderud, Kevin Kazakoff and Mike Kor- zonkowski scored the Rebels’ other goals, while Rodger Carlson and Dan Lavallee picked up three assists apiece.
