Ir. Knights win third straight title he Nucmle Knights I lunim boys football team made " a threw peat Friday night, shutting out the Sir John A. Mathulr ald Highlanders 27-0 after a three-touchdtswn perfur "lance by a running back nicknamed "the Anvil." With a name like that you would expect a mam mountain of muscle to be carrying the ball for the Knights. The Pittsburgh Steelers lemme Bettis is nicknamed "the Bus" because of his five-foot-t l, 255-pourtd frame and his ability to carry ladders into the endzone. Mike "Pinball" Clemons would bounce around with his small stature before finding the endzone for the Toronto Argonauts in his heyday. Try about five-foot-six and a solid 175 pounds. That's about the size of Bluevale's ball of hardened steel, Anvar Gazizov. who is shaped more like a battering ram that the tool used by blacksmiths. '50 just how big Would somebody called the Anvil be? But it's not his size that's impressive; it's how hard the 15-year-old hits the line of scrimmage that first earned him that nickname a year ago. Gazizov was like rolling bed of hot metal as the defensive end crashed through opposing offensive lines on his way to the quar- terback on last year's charm pionship team.

The Knights' previous meeting against the High- landers this year was a 31-28 thriller. which Bluevale won on a late field goal. The Highlanders. who are build- ing a credible football pro- gram with their seniors reaching the semifinals. were looking for the school's first pigskin title since they started strapping on the hel- mets a year ago. But Gazizov, whose fami- ly hails from Russia. had other ideas. Especially after being battle-hardened in the 'lwmt :in Predators. “I just gut in there and followed unm- blocks." said Gazizov, who is following a strung tradition of Bluevale runners including lulien and Gord Radlein, and cur- rent seniors like Andrew Van Pelt and Adam Williams. "rhe (Lime played well today and everything just went well." As for the credit for his big day. he gave it all to his coaches. especially to head coach Bob Taylor, "They have us prepared for every game," said Gazizov. "we know what to expect." As for living up to the name of the Anvil, the mod- est Gazizov said he didn't even think about it. "All I was thinking about was run- ning the ball and getting to the endzone," he said.
