Johnsburg trailed at one point by 15 points in the game, but made a run in the fourth quarter only to lose by two points.

STAFF PHOTO - CARL MOESCHE \ Lady Warriors Win First, Then Bow Out Of Tourney After four tries, McHenry high school's girls basketball team finally notched one in the win column last week by defeating Chicago Christian 34-32. Coach Pat Wirtz's Lady Wahriors stayed alive in the consolation bracket of the North Chicago Tournament by coming from behind in the fourth quarter to win Monday night. Trailing by six points with 1:10 remaining, McHenry rallied behind two Karen Karpavicius field goals, one field goal each by Terry Blume and Robin Geigei, and a pair of free throws to d its first win. itian had a few op- i, o pportunities to send the game "'into overtime, but missed four free throws down the stretch including two from the front end of a bonus situation. McHenry's defense also held Christian to but seven field goal at­ tempts in the final eight minutes. Christian led 7-6 after the first quarter of play, but McHenry outscored them 12- 9 in the second period for a 18-16 halftime lead. The Lady Warriors trailed 26-24 going into their dramatic fourth quarter. While both teams shot poorly from both the floor and the free throw line, McHenry held a slight edge in rebounding. Karpavicius ripped down a team leading nine boards, six off the defensive end, and Blume also had a good night with six rebounds. The Lady Warriors made only 14 of 49 shots from the floor (28 percent) and only six of 18 (33 percent) free throw attempts. Christian wasn't much better, however, making 13 of 38 ( 34 percent) from Ahe floor and six of 17 (35/per- cent) from the charity stripe. Besides controlling tl boards, Karpavicius ant , Blume were McHenry's top scorers with 12 and 10 points, respectively. Geiger finished with four points, and Greta Larserv, Sue Smith, Lynne Podpora, and Renee Mez- zano also contributed in the win with two points each. Barb Schaat led the losers with a game high 16 points.

Back on November 20, the Skyhawks were beaten in their season opener 57-56 by Salem Central/ Last Tuesday, they were beaten 69-67 by the Hornets. Against Salem, Tom Pieper led Johnsburg with 22 points. Against Harvard, he was again high man with 24 points. « In both games, Johnsburg rallied to overcome large deficits in the fourth quarter only to lose at the buzzer. Against Salem, Pieper's last second jump shot from the left baseline bracketed off the rim leaving John­ sburg 0-1 for the year. Against Harvard, a similiar last second shot by Pieper from the right baseline again bracketed off the rim which would have sent the game into overtime had it gone in. \ But the Skyhawks were eliminated in the semi-finals of the consolation bracket, and were left pondering a 2- 10 record. It has been that kind of a season for first year coach Ben Beck. Half of his team's losses have been by four points or less. Johnsburg will hope to bounce back in 1982 begin­ ning the year by hosting Richmond-Burton Tuesday night, then travelling to Marengo on Friday, Jan. 8 for a 7:30 p.m. SHARK contest against the Indians. Richmond-Burton also participated in the Hamp­ shire Tournament and was eliminated in two games. The Rockets opened with a 72-48 loss to Chicago Central YMCA, then in the con­ solation bracket were defeated 77-48 also by Harvard. The Hornets then moved on to defeat John­ sburg. ;\ • .,^.4 Marengo \/k the defending SHARK champion aAd is coming off a second place finish in its own holiday tournament, bowing only to Chicago Latin School 71-55 in the fina|^. In Tuesday's contest, Harvard moved ahead of Johnsburg 14-12 in the first quarter with some strong inside (day by center Paul Kramarczyk and forward Tim Anderson, each scoring six points in the quarto:. The Skyhawks had trouble getting the ball inside of the Hornet zone defense, but the outside shooting of Pieper (four long bombs) kept them in the game. In the second quarter, Johnsburg continued to have its problems penetrating the Harvard zone defense. The Hornets outscored the Skyhawks ' 22-15 in the quarter and moved out to a 36-27 halftime lead. At one point, the Hornets opened up a 13-point lead. Kramarczyk and An­ derson continued to score from close range and led Harvard in the second period with eight and six points, respectively. Pieper duplicated his first quarter's production with four second period field goals giving him 16 of Johnsburg's 27 points. Forward Craig Carlson sparked the Hornets in the third period with five field goals and a perfect 2-for-2 from the free throw line for all 12 of his points. His steal off a Skyhawk inbound pass and ensueing layup as the third quarter buzzer sounded gave Har­ vard a 56-43 lead going into the final eight minutes of play. But in the final quarter, Johnsburg came alive. Sparked by the play of Pieper and Jeff Fowler, and reserves Jim Leon and Dan Williams, the Skyhawks outscored the Hornets 24-13 in the final eight minutes. With 1:30 remaining,3 Williams cut the lead to 67-59 with a pair of free throws. Fowler and Leon then netted field goals to put Johnsburg within four points with under one minute left to play. Following a Harvard time out, Leon stole an inbounds pass and was fouled in the act of shooting. He made *• botfr charity tosses and the Skyhawks trailed only 67-65 with :41 remaining. '• Forced to foul to get the ball back, the Skyhawks handcuffed the wrong man when Pieper fouled Kramarczyk. The game's leading scorer with 28 points, Kramarczyk calmly sank both free throws to give the Chi-Christian 7- 9-10- 6-32 On Tuesday night the tables turned, however, as the Lady Warriors fell behind 14-4 at the end of the first quarter and never recovered losing 61-36 to the Forest View Falcons in the consolation semi-finals. Using a full court press for most of the contest, the Falcons forced several turnovers and scored several times after steals in the Lady Warriors' back- court. Forest View led 28-10 at halftime, and at the end of three quarters held a commanding 45-24 ad­ vantage. The Lady Warriors were also victimized by foul trouble in the contest and suffered the losses of Kar­ pavicius and Podpora who both fouled out in the second Fore&tview capitalized at Ski Clinics 0ff6red | Scoreboard The McHenry County Conservation District will be offering free beginner clinics for cross country skiing on Saturday mornings in January and February.
