I nterhall F ootball P layoffs Upsets dominate first weekend of playoffs

By KEVIN BERCHOU Sports W riter

The Sorin Otters had the right attitude heading into Sunday’s playoff showdown with the two- time defending league champion Keenan Knights. They knew they could win. And that’s exactly what they did, stunning the Knights in a 10-7 thriller and snapping their oppo­ nents’ 18-game unbeaten streak in the process. “We knew we could do it," said Sorin captain Fred Faber, who left the game early with an injury. “Our whole team stepped it up.” While it was a team victory for the Otters — one that avenged their defeat at the hands of the Knights in last year’s title tilt — it was the passing tandem of quarterback Luke Beuerlein and wide-out Greg Carney that stole the show. The pair connected countless times as it exploited the chink it found in the Knights’ defensive armor. The Otters came out of the gates smoking, showing the Knights that a 19th-consecutive game without a loss would not come easily. Beuerlein connect­ ed with Carney on pass plays covering a total of more than 50 yards on the game’s first posses­ sion. It took a tremendous effort from the Keenan defense to stop Beuerlein on a fourth-down quarterback draw just inches JEFF HSU/The Observer short of the goal line to keep the The No. 8 Fisher Green Wave fought off the No. 1 Alumni Dawgs to record the biggest upset win of the season 8-0 on Sunday. game scoreless.
