HIGHCLIMBER STEVE SETTLE (30) takes several Timberline defenders
for a ride through the line during Friday night's game.
By ERIK ANDERSON
Shellon's hard-hitting
Highclimbers destroyed
Timberline's first annual
homecoming Friday night at
North Thurston in Shelton's
second league game by a score of
40-3.
Shelton's first scoring drive
started with the opening kick-off
when Marly Settle made a return
of 34 yards which brought the
ball up to the Timberline 46 yard
line. Steve Settle then bulled his
way up to the 36 yard line for a
first down. On the third play of
the ball game, Paul James coasted
into the endzone for Shelton's
first touchdown. The PAT kicked
by Craig Jacobson was no good.
Jeff Pill kicked to the Blazer's
15 yard where the ball was run up
to the 27. Brad Wilson
intercepted Tin~berline's pass on
the first down bul Paul James
dropped the ball on the next play
for a turnover back to Timberline
just as lasl as they lost it.
With o~2 minutes left on the
first quarter's clock, Steve Settle
fought his way 18 yards to score
six more points for Shelton. Craig
Jacobsen kicked the PAT to make
the score 13-0. The two teams
exchanged punts the rest of the
quarter.
Late in the second quarter
Timberline scored its only points
against the Climbers with a tield
goal from the Shelton 9 yard line
after a fumble recovery and an
eight-play drive.
The Climbers' third scoring
drive started when Marly Seule
took the Blazer defense tbr a ride
when he handed off a punt to
Dan Morgan. Morgan fan the ball
up to the Timberline 29 yard line.
The Climbers then got 15 free
yards courtesy of the Blazers for
pass interference. Fred Millel then
passed the ball to Dan Morgan who
ran it up to the one fbot line.
brom there Miller handed the ball
off to Steve Settle for his second
TI) of the night. The extra point
by Craig Jacobsen was good t~
bring the score up Io 20-3 at the
halt'.
Timberline came back after
the half with a surprising drive
that caught Shelton of f guard and
the Blazers picked up a few yards,
but not very many as Randy
Salisbury picked off one of
Timberline's many passes of the
night to give Shelton the ball at
its own 10 yard line. Two plays
later, Shelton suffered its first
injury of the season when Lenny
Crume received a sprained ankle
while carrying the ball.
Shelton was set up for its
l~mrlh scoring drive when the
Bla/ers' center oversnapped the
ball on a punt, causing the punter
tt) chase the bail half way across
the field. By the time he got to
the ball and kicked it, Climber
Ly]e Oling was all over him,
causing him Io kick the ball out
of b{~unds at about the
"[imber line 3~.
A ccmfl)ination of the Settles,
Morgan and Jeff Pill pushed
fi~rward to die 19 yard line where
T~,ny Molinelo showed his ability
to catch passes in any position,
bringing the ball into scoring
range. Coach Stark then sent the
Climbers' balhnover, Steve Settle,
in six yards l or his third
touchdown of the night. Craig
Jacobson made lhe PAT to bring
the score up to 27-3.
Jacobson kicked off to the
Timberline 13 from where the
ball was run up to the 36. Paul
James missed catching his fourth
interception of the season by
inches. The next two plays Mark
Tuson slipped by the offensive
line to knock down two passes.
The first play of the fourth
quarter started off with a pass
from Fred Miller at the Blazers'
49 yard line to Paul James who
swerved around Blazer defensive
backs to run about 25 yards to
score for Shelton again. The extra
point was blocked.
Timberline had two plays
after the kick before Delbert
Miller picked up a fumble and
allowed Shelton to pick up a few
yards and punt to the Timberline
25 where the Blazers ran the ball
up to the 33 yard line. There the
Blazers threw one incomplete pass
and one pass straight into the
waiting arms of Climber Dan
Morgan who made his way to the
goal line without a Blazer within
15 yards of him all the way.
Mark Tuson got the wind
knocked out of him while
attempting to kick the extra
point. Delbert Miller came out to
follow up Tuson and put the ball
straight through the goal posts to
score Shelton's last point of the
night.
Shelton came within nine
yards of scoring before the end of
the game but Timberline kept the
Shelton subs from breaking into
paydirt.
Shelton ended the game with
Bret Winne recovering a
Timberline fumble to give the
Climbers last possession of the
ball at about the Timberline 30

Coach Jack Stark said that
Timberline was a tough team. In
fact, it was probably one of the
toughest they fielded. He also said
he believes that the Shelton team
was more mentally prepared for
the game, which helped the
Climbers execute their plays.
Shelton broke the Black Hills
League record for the most wins
in a row Friday night by
capturing 11 in a row.
Steve Settle also came close to
setting a school record in rushing
with 967 yards in his three years
of football. The old record of
1032 yards in three years was set
by Don Neth in 1971. Settle did
set a new school record of 92
points chalked up in his years of
play. Neth also set the old mark
of 82 points.
