Lisbon's Opening Field Game Delivers High-Scoring Drama
A large crowd watched Lisbon debut on a new field as Lisbon and Olin tied 4 to 4 after eight plays each. Brian Woods connected with Ross Graft for a third-quarter TD. Rick Glenn added the extra point. Jeff Peters passed to Jim Bennett for another TD, but a late two-point try fell incomplete. The game featured heavy offense in a brief action span and two teams with four first downs. Meanwhile Terry Stevens, former Fayette and Upper town standout, launched a coaching career at Waterloo East by beating unbeaten Waterloo East 7-6, planning an encore against Sioux City Treelan. Joe Sutin, a 230-pound veteran, kicked the decisive extra point after Wednesday practice, while Steve Troby recovers from a leg injury as Iowa prep football promises exciting moments. The column notes several overtime games in the opening weekend and calls for two boys and girls basketball hires at Shellaburg High School.
