'r ih/iiiiiiktrii/sttirt; by recalling . T8 and By Rick Cattrtpbett Chronicle - Editor October 28, 1978 is not so far off that activities of that day have been erased from the memories of the Univer- sity of Waterloo football Warriors. In fact, they remember it as it it were yesterday. For most sports fans in the Twin City, thatday will go down as the. day the Wil- frid Laurier Golden Hawks scored a touchdown in the last two minutes to beat Warriors 30-23 in an OUAA semi-final game. ' But for he Warriors, it was the day they came of age. . _ Trailing by '20 points at the half, Warriors rallied to tie, could have won the game but fumbled near the Laurier end zone, and still might be playing were it not for a costly late interception that Laurier converted into the winning points.

"Every guy on this team is dying to meet Laurier in the regular season," said UW head coach Wally Dela- hey folowing Monday's practice as his team pre- pares for Saturday's home opener against Windsor. “They remember how close they came last year and can hardly wait for another chance." Warriors actually finished third in the OUAA West last year behind Western and Laurier, but some say the only reason they made it was because of the unba- lanced schedulewhich ef- fectually divided the divi- sion into two separate sec- tions, with the weak teams pitted against each other twice and the powerhouses forced to play each other a similar number of times. o DISCO - HUSTLE - JIVE for adults .

And like I've often told my guys, once you get into the playoffs, then who knows what might happen." Heading the list of retur- nees on offence will be southpaw quarterback Bob Pronyk. a third-year man from Toronto Humberside.

Although he voted against it, Delaney is not that unsa- tisfied with this year's sche- dule and lauds it as the fairest possible under the circumstances. "It wasn’t tough cutting the ones I did, there was a lot of difference in the {giant levels," he said. “I like to keep a happy ship and I think you can maintain bet- ter harmony on a club if guys who you have no intui- tion of playing aren't kept around. Of the guys on our roster last year, every but one or tiro got mg Delahey feels that a dupli- cation of last year's 4-3 re- cord will put his club in the playoffs, and lists Laurier and Western as the" teams to beat. After that it is a dog- fight, but the fact remains Warriors will have to be consistent to beat the lower teams and rise to the oc- casion by beating at least one of the so-called stronger clubs. "What I was really against was having to play the top four teams in the first four weeks of the sea- son. It's hard to keep morale up when you’re 0-4 before you even get it going. But that's not the case this year, we alternate games against the stronger teams." "I think if anyone (of the stronger teams) can be bea- ten, it's Windsor," said De- lahey.
