Element destroys Abandon to face Juniors in final
by Greg Holloway
Criminal Element crushed
Reckless Abandon, 50-6, to set up
Friday's championship game with
The Juniors, 34-0 victors over
Agonies of Defeat.
Matt Williams picked off Vince
Henry's first pass to set the game's
tempo for the Element.
Quarterback Bobby Orr marched
his squad quickly into the end zone,

scoring on a pass to Williams off
the right side. Criminal Element
quickly built up an 18-0 halftime
lead behind scoring passes to Kent
Vaugh and Jeff McGee.
The second half began
competitively enough. Reckless
Abandon took the ball on its first
possession, crossed midfield,
and eventually scored on a Henry
to Steve Sheffield bomb.
Sheffield's diving catch brought
Reckless Abandon to within
shouting distance at 18-6.
What was billed as a titantic
struggle between the numbers one-
and two-ranked teams quickly
deteriorated into a rout. The
Abandon secondary had trouble
all afternoon with Williams dragging
St. Mary's, Texas drop Owls
by Dave Chilton
The Men's Soccer Club suffered
through two more disappointing
losses at the hands of St. Mary's
and Texas, respectively, to drop
their record to a mediocre 2-9-2.
Against St. Mary's, the Owls
suffered a 3-1 setback. Rice
handed St. Mary's two early goals
as the first shot bounced off the
hands of goalie Rod Turin and
deflected off forward Mark
Hellinger back into the goal. The
second goal came as a Rice player
set up a St. Mary's player right in
front of the goal, allowing an easy
scoring shot.
In the second half, freshman
Mike Friedman finally got Rice on
the board with a goal to make the
score 2-1. St. Mary's came back
later with their only legitimate goal
to make the final score 3-1.
In the Texas game, Rice again
fell behind early 2-0, as the
Longhorns put through a couple of
solid kicks to take a 2-0 halftime
lead.
Rice got back into the game in
the second half with an early goal
by halfback Tom Birch to make
the score 2-1. The Owls made a bid
to tie the game on the ensuing
kickoff as Hellinger drove down
the field and took a shot which
bounced off one post and was
picked up by forward Tim Houlck,
whose ensuing shot bounced off
the other post.
Texas later scored a goal to
make the score 3-1. Rice's Houlck
then followed with a goal to make
WOMEN'S SOCCER
the score 3-2 and the Longhorns
closed out the scoring with a late
goal, to make the final tally 4-2.
The Owls will hope to turn their
fortunes around on Saturday
against Texas A&M. The game
starts at noon with a keg of beer for

across the middle and with
Vaugh's sharp flag patterns.
The 50-6 destruction was capped
late in the game by an interception
return by Williams and a short-
yardage TD catch by Orr.
The Juniors took control of
their game against Agonies of
Defeat with two scores in the
game's first five minutes and went
on to win 34-0.
The Juniors converted a third-
and-15 play on their first drive,
which resulted in a TD. Ernie
Butler then picked off an Agony
pass and ran it back 25 yards to put
the Agonies in a deep hole.
The Juniors' defense, led by Jim
McGarvey and Rick Gerlach, held
the Agonies' Rob Schultz and
Kent Eggert at bay throughout the
contest to preserve the whitewash.
Tomorrow's game between
Criminal Element and The Juniors
should be closer than either of their
last two playoff games have been.
The Juniors have enough
experience on their squad to keep
any game close. By the same token,
the Element have enough talent on
their team to make any game a
blow-away. If The Juniors can
take an early lead, the Element will
be in for a struggle.

SHS surprises Rice

The Rice Women's Soccer Club
season record dropped to below
.500 for the first time this season as
an inspired Sam Houston State
team upset the Owls 2-0. The loss
gives Rice a 3-4 mark.
Coach Ken Klein attributed the
surprising loss to a lack of mental
preparedness on the part of the
Owls. "We were physically ready
for the game, but were not all ready
mentally," commented Klein
afterward. "We felt that we could
win easily and did not prepare,
and, as a result, lost the game. We
definitely will not make that
mistake again."
Rice takes a break from
conference play this weekend but
the Owls will scrimmage United, a
team from the Houston Women's
Soccer League Sunday.

THE CENTER OF GOD'S SALVATION
God's salvation is
exceedingly full and
complete. It includes
forgiveness and cleansing
of sins, redemption from
the demands of the law,
reconciliation to God,
sanctification, justifica-
tion, freedom from bondage,
regeneration and much
more! Of all these aspects of
salvation, only regener-
ation is related to life. It is
by regeneration that the
very life of God is imparted
into us.
Regeneration means the
termination of the old
creation with all its deeds
and the germination in us
of the new creation with the
divine life; regeneration is
the beginning of the new
man within us. All our
experiences of spiritual life
are matters of the new man
which begin within us at
our regeneration.
We need to be regener-
ated because our natural
life has been corrrupted
and has become evil: "For I
know that in me, that is in
my flesh, nothing good
dwells" (Rom. 7:18).
Regeneration is not self-
improvement or better
behavior. It is a rebirth
which brings in a complete-
ly new life. It is absolutely
a matter of life, not a matter
of doing. "Can the
Ethiopian change his skin,
or the leopard his spots?
Then may ye also do good,
that are accustomed to do
evil" (Jer. 13:23).
"But as many as receive
Him, to them gave He the
right to become children of
God, even to them that
believe in His name" (Jn.
1:12). As children of God we
possess the divine nature of
God. and have a life-
relationship with God.
"Whereby He hath granted
unto us His precious and
exceeding great promises;
that through these ye may
become partakers of the
divine nature, having
escaped from the corrup-
tion that is in the world by
lust." (IlPeter 1:4).
We also need to be
regenerated because we
need the life of God. In fact,
even if our human life had
not been corrupted by the
fall of man in Genesis 3, we
would still need to be
regenerated. In Genesis 1
and 2, Adam was without
sin, yet he was void of God's
life. So God placed before
hiir the tree of life that he
might receive the life of God
and be regenerated. God's
purpose in creating man is
not merely to obtain a
sinless man, but even more
to have a God-man, one
who has God's own life and
nature.
Finally, by regeneration
we not only obtain God's
life with its divine
elements, but we are also
united with God as one.
God the Spirit enters our
spirit, causing us to be
joined to Him as one spirit.
"But, he that is joined unto
the Lord is one spirit" (I Cor
6:17). What a marvelous
and deep relationship this
is— that in at least one part
of our being— our spirit—
we are fully one with God!
This oneness with God is
deepened and increased by
the transformation of our
soul, and will reach its full
development by the
glorification of our body,
which will cause even our
body to be one with God.
