Byline: Bryan Winchell Special to the Daily News

With four second-half fumbles and a key roughing-the-punter penalty that took away its last chance to score, Quartz quartz, one of the commonest of all rock-forming minerals and one of the most important constituents of the earth's crust. Chemically, it is silicon dioxide, SiO2.  Hill had only itself to blame in a 24-20 nonconference loss to Crespi at home Friday night.

Crespi (1-1) gave the Rebels the chance to get back in the game, throwing an interception in the end zone in the third quarter, not converting on fourth down from the Quartz Hill 4-yard line in the fourth quarter and committing two key penalties on a Quartz Hill scoring drive that made it 24-20 with 4:10 left to play.

But after the Rebels held Crespi on three straight plays to force a fourth-and-5 at the Crespi 28, Chris Bishop and Ronald Beacon Beacon, city (1990 pop. 13,243), Dutchess co., SE N.Y., on the E bank of the Hudson River; settled 1663, inc. in 1913 when Fishkill Landing and Matteawan villages were united.  ran into punter Punter

``Some things went our way, but I thought we played really hard,'' Crespi coach Tim Lins said.

Crespi had a 24-7 lead after Anthony Trejo scored on a 22-yard run with 1:56 left in the third quarter.

But Quartz Hill quickly responded with a 43-yard kickoff return by Don Simmons

After Crespi went nowhere on its next possession, though, Quartz Hill's Jacob Waasdorp fumbled on the Rebels' first play and before Quartz Hill knew it, time was running out.

Crespi did a good job containing Waasdorp, only allowing him to break one 50-yard run and holding him to 63 yards running and 28 yards receiving.
