ELLISVILLE - The Jones Junior College Bobcats lived up

to

the~

No. 13 ranking in the nation here Saturday night with an

easier-than-expected 33·10 win over South Division leader East

Central.

TheWarnors, who went into the game leading the division with

a 3-1 record, thus fell to 3-2 in loop results and 3-5 overall.

Jones took over the top spot with a 3-1-1 record in the South.

With 4:14 left in the opening quarter, the Bobcats scored on

David Martin's 6-yard run and Chip Gieger booted the extra

point.

Jones came back with 12 seconds remaining in the period when

quarterback Simmy Cooley shot a 50-yard scoring pass to Eligah

Bell and Jeff Jones tacked on the PAT.

East Central's Todd Wall reduced the margin by three with an

18-yard field goal at the 11 :15 juncture before intermission, but

Jones'

Leo

Shelby raced 13 yards to cap another Bobcat drive.

The PAT failed, but Jones was up by 20-3 just before halftime.

East Central roared back as if to make a game of it moments

later. Warrior quarterback Jim Kennamer passed five yards to

Tony Baker for an ECJC touchdown and Wall reduced it to 20-10

with his PAT boot.

However, Jones stood the crowd on its collective feet by mar–

ching 80 yards with the next kickoff to score.
