ST. BONAVENTURE ROUTS HART INDIANS SHUT OUT FOR FIRST TIME SINCE 1985 ST. BONAVENTURE 34, HART 0.


Byline: MATTHEW KREDELL Staff Writer

The days of Hart of Newhall showcasing the most dominant offense in area high school football officially are over.

That sophisticated passing offense that used to stand out as a thing of beauty among all the pound-it-out running teams broke down in the worst way Friday.

The Indians were shut out for the first time in Mike Herrington's 18 years as coach in a 34-0 loss to St. Bonaventure of Ventura at College of the Canyons College of the Canyons is one of the fastest-growing community colleges in the state. According to the National Junior College Research Association, College of the Canyons consistently ranks in the top 50 community colleges in the nation. .

Hart turned the ball over seven times and passed for just 109 yards in 37 attempts in perhaps the worst game in the school's history.

``Just looking at that scoreboard is very embarrassing, there's nothing more to say,'' said quarterback Alex Pettee, who completed 11 of 32 passes for 109 yards and one interception.

The last time Hart was held scoreless was a 0-0 tie to Saugus on Oct. 4, 1985.

Michael Vairo fumbled a catch at the St. Bonaventure 31-yard line on the Indians' first possession, and it never got any better.

Hart fell asleep on special teams midway Midway, island group (2 sq mi/5.2 sq km), central Pacific, c.1,150 mi (1,850 km) NW of Honolulu, comprising Sand and Eastern islands with the surrounding atoll.

 of St. Bonaventure would call for a fair catch. Hart seemed to expect it. Williams didn't make the call, caught the ball in traffic and weaved his way up the middle of the field untouched for a 58-yard touchdown.

The Indians' best scoring chance predictably ended in a turnover when Pettee overthrew Delano Howell, sending the ball right to Max Moreno for an interception in the end zone with a few minutes remaining in the first half.

Hart got the ball on a quick three-and-out, still in the game down 14-0, but Pettee was sacked sack 1

Pettee threw most of his passes to Howell, the running back, who caught five balls for 78 yards. Howell was the one bright spot for the Indians, also rushing for 125 yards on 17 carries.
