Joel Wakitsch Girl Cagers Fall To Fox Valley Foes Coach Pat Wirtz and his girls' basketball team lost a pair of Fox Valley games the past week, losing to Crown 58-42, and to Cary Grove 55- 27. In the Crown game, the girls fell behind 20-6 in the first period and could never <piite ckse the gap. Trailing 48-23 going into the final Eiriod, the Warriors came to e outscoring the hosts 19-8, but it was not enough and they fell 58-42. On Saturday at Cary Grove, the locals hit a cold spell during the first half, making 1 of 30 attempts from the field.

After a see­ saw first half in which the Bridge led as much as 7 points, Little John's came back to take a 5 point lead. The second half was a repeat of the first as Old Bridge came from behind to take a 5 point led of their own. Late in the game the Bridge led by 4 points, however Little John's whittled the score away until Ken Ludwig stole the ball and scored the tying bucket with 30 seconds left in regulation. In the overtime the winners went 8 for 10 from the free throw line with Gary Snell going 6 for 8 Snell along with Ludwig led the winners with 14 points each.

Although done by accident, Scasny was poked in the eye and had to sit out during the second half while his Over the Hill Gang dropped a 70-45 decision to Sand & Gravel.

It was a most frustrating defeat for Bill Blankenhorn and his crew as the locals led by nine points with less than four minutes to play. The Warriors grabbed a 14-8 first period lead, and increased their margin to eight, 26-18, at the in­ termission. The young Cards cut the margin to seven going into the final period, 34-27, and it looked as if the Warriors were on their way to victory at the mid-point of the final period, leading 42- 33. Then disaster struck the Blankenhorn team. A Dundee press that seemed to baffle the sophomores got the Cards on their way, and from pie point on there was One-to-one service from Sentry Lite Ineurance.

The Warriors had to overcome an 11 pouit deficit at the ntermission to insure the win. If anyone had even suggested to me that the Warriors would have won 15 games tms season back in November, I would have called the padded van and had them taken away to an institution. The Warriors jumped out to a quick 8-2 lead in the early minutes, and Bryniarski's basket at 1:30 put the Warriors up 14-8.

The cards got on the board quick and often, as the Warriors were unable to get more man one shot at the basket, and fell victim to bad passing, poor shooting and no rebounding. The Judson crew went into the locker room with a 38-25 halftime bulge. Costigsn, Bryniarski and Zeller all hit the hoop in the first 90 seconds of the third period, and it seemed that the Warriors were on their way, but Killough countered with a basket for the Cards. Finally, a Burgdorf bucket along with a Zeller and a Costigan free throw, left the Warriors trailing 40-38. Then the Warriors went into a semi tailspin. Three times they had possession of the ball, and three times they blew the advantage, the Cards then struck for five quick points until ZeUer's basket narrowed the margin, 45-40 at the end of the period. Meyer put the Cards up 47-40, and then the Warriors began to play some basketball. Using a press that seemed to bother the weak Dundee guards, Costigan, Zeller and Greve got rolling to bring the Warriors within one. Finally, at 5:37 Bob Greve hit one to give the Warriors the lead 50-49, and seconds later he stole an inbound pass for a layup to put the Warriors ahead 52-49. The Warriors were off and running for their 15th win of the season and 8th in conference play to stay tied with Crystal Lake South in second place in the Fox Valley. Coach Ken Ludwig was pleased with the victory. However, he was a bit disappointed with the play of the Warriors in the second period, when the Cards almost ran the home crew out of the gym. As I have said many times before, they are an exciting team to watch. They hustle, scrap, run and gun and do a lot of things wrong, but they give the fans their money's worth all the time. The two "Bobs" again led the scoring with Greve making 18 and Zeller 17 for the Warriors.

'Hawks Swat Harvard The Johnsburg Skyhawk cagers continued their jinx on the Hornets of Harvard Friday night, beating the Hornets for the third time this season, a 62-58 thriller in overtime. The Sky hawks moved their record to 6-6 in the Shark and 15-10 overall with their second overtime win over the Harvard rivals this year. The locals had earlier edged the Hornets 68-66 in a double-overtime affair luick buckets and which gave Johnsburg the consolation championship of the Northern Illinois Classic last December. Tom Pieper with two qi RUBS Beck and Chuck Novy each with a basket opened up the strong first period for Johnsburg. Harvard's Paul Karmaczyk , who led the Hornets with 23 on the day, kept Harvard in the game. He couldn't counter tne Johnsburg hot streak, however, and the Skyhawks took an 18-10 lead into the second quarter. Harvard cut the lead to three at halftime, using strong rebounding on the offensive boards along with the hot shooting of 5'11" Ken Haldeman from the outside, rouped at the intermission with the tally reading, Skyhawks, 32, Harvard, 29. The second naif started with fine third quarter play by both teams. Johnsburg outscored the Hornets, 15-14 to take a four- point lead into the final stanza, 47-43. The final quarter brought on a Johnsburg cokl spell in which they hit only 3 of 10 field goals. Coupled with a rugged Hornet defense, Harvard tied the game with 2:41 left in the game, 51-51. They then went on to take a three-point lead on a Kramarczyk bucket amd Haldeman free throw. Johnsburg scored five unanswered points, however, taking a slight 58-54 lead. Tom Pieper, who led Johnsburg with 19 points, put in an 18-footer. Harvard committed a costly turnover which resulted in a Rick Neiss free throw on the front end of a one-and-one. Frank Jakubicek was then fouled trying to convert the rebound of Neiss's second free throw, and the big Johnsburg center put in both charity tosses to put his team up by two. Harvard's Tim Anderson missed an outside shot on the following play, but Johnsburg was not about to take advantage of the Instead the locals gave Harvard more tries at the basket, one of which was good with 6 seconds remaining by Paul Kramarczyk. Johnsburg missed a 32-footer at the buzzer, and the overtime period was necessary with the score sitting at 58-58 at the end of regulation time. In the overtime, Johnsburg won the tip and each team turned the ball over before any scoring unfolded. Tom Pieper hit one of two free throws as a result of s shooting foul,and Rick Neiss pulled down an important rebound on the errant free throw. He proceeded to drive to the bucket, converting tne layup and drawing a foul in the meantime. He accomplished the three-point play to put Johnsburg up by four. Chuck Novy finished up the Skyhawk scoring with a bucket after another Harvard turnover, and from there a four-corner delay offense ran out the clock and preserved the victory for Johnsburg. Johnsburg hit 24 of 47 field goals for 51 percent, while Harvard hit on 28 of 59 for 44 percent Johnsburg also hit 53 percent of its charity shots (14 of 28), and the Hornets only shot 12 all night, converting on half of them.
