Portland, OR (AP) - The Oregon Ice rolled to a 2-0 record and sole possession of first place in the Ring of Ice Division yesterday with a 23-10 victory over the Shreveport Pride. The Oregon defense stole the show, recording 3 sacks and creating four turnovers (three forced fumbles and one interception).

"Everyone stepped up today," said Oregon strong-side linebacker <b>Jerrell Pinard</b>, who was voted Player of the Game. "We executed the game plan we practiced all week, and it worked to perfection." On the day, Pinard had two sacks, one pass deflection, and a forced fumble that he recovered for a touchdown.

<IMG SRC="http://fof2forever.com/CFL/News/pinard1.gif" hspace=5 border=1 ALIGN=RIGHT>Although the teams were tied 3-3 at halftime, Oregon capitalized on three Shreveport turnovers in a five-minute span to put the game out of reach. On the second play of the third quarter, Oregon cornerback <b>Orlando Pilcher</b> recovered a fumble by Shreveport tight end <b>Mark Jackson</b> at the Pride 24, which led to a 33-yard field goal and a 6-3 Ice advantage.

On the ensuing kickoff, Shreveport wide receiver <b>Mack Ramirez</b> muffed the return and Oregon recovered at the Pride 22. Four plays later, Oregon kicker <b>Craig Schanding</b> connected on a 35-yard field goal, giving Oregon a 9-3 lead.

The death knell came on Shreveport's very next possession. The Pride were backed up to their own 12 after a holding penalty when fullback <b>Gus Lassner</b> failed to pick up the blitz, allowing Pinard to lay a huge hit on quarterback <b>Douglas Hartman</b> at the 3-yard line. The blow knocked the ball loose, and Pinard jumped on it in the end zone for the score.

"It's just one game," said an ever even-keeled GM <b>Grid Iron</b>. "We've got another tough game next week at Huntington Beach and a lot of work to do."

Humiliation is right! I can't wait for FB Chris Wisdom to come back from his injury. It's tough having my starting TE and my starting FB being rookies. I was supposed to be SET at these positions! Bastards. :)
