#3-DO #1 AND #2 WITH Magnetic Thermo Windows fThisWinter, more than ever, you cant afford ̂ not to!! AT SYCAMORE: Kan^Ktad nipped iHM&I SHAW MEDIA NFW* SERVICE WOODSTOCK--Johnsburg took advantage of numerous Marian Central fouls to pull away from the host Hurricanes in the second half and claim the championship of the Marian tourney Friday. The Skyhawks, who won all three of their tournament games, overtook the Hurricanes in the third quarter of Friday's finale to take a 78-64 victory. "We are real pleased," said Skyhawk coach, Ben Beck. "I think being 3-0 right now with our ballclub is real good for our young people." Beck wasn't surprised to see his club< take the championship. "Anytime you start the season, your chances are as good as anybody. We thought we could win it." One of the keys to the game, ac­ cording to Beck, was the ability of his team to offset the foul situation and get a good performance from the bench. "Look at the box score," said Beck. Warrior Grapplers Drop Two WOODSTOCK -- It wasn't being out-wrestled that had McHenry Coach Marty Sobczak so displeased as much as giving up forfeits. The McHenry Warriors had to forfeit both the 126 and 167 pound matches in route to losing both duals to Harvard and Mundelein Saturday. The Warriors lost to Mundelein 40-21 and Harvard defeated them 52-14. "We were out-wrestled -- no question about it," said Sobczak. "I thought we would do better against Harvard. People like Clewis, who I wouldn't expect being pinned, were pinned." The Warriors had to forfeit at 126 pounds due to an injury that still bothers Chris Creutz. At 167 pounds, Tom Kucek was weighed two pounds over 167 pounds and had to forfeit the match. A wrestler caqnot be one ounce over the weight he is supposed to wrestle at. He can be two pounds under. If Creutz is unable to wrestle before the next match, Sobczak plans to move Bob Sarabia from the 132 pound match to 126 pounds. Depending on the opponent, Sobczak said he would bring up a freshman to wrestle at 132 pounds. Sobczak named junior Dan Mohnen as "Wrestler of the Week." Mohnen pinned both his opponents in the first period. Against Harvard, he scored the pin at 1:54 and 1:15 against Mundelein. He sew holds an un­ defeated record of 3-0. lalls were earned against lein by Rotand Hunt at 145 i and John Ckitois at 185 pounds, gainst Harvard, Mike Love scored a at 138 pounds. JRic Connor at 119 pounds scored a 7- 2| decision over his Mundelein op­ ponent, while Erick Gaza earned two t{am points for his tie with his Har­ vard opponent. "Wrestling on the mats at McHenry Etast campus, the junior varsity team squeezed past Mundelein 36-32, but \jfere defeated by Harvard 42-22. Warrior pins were earned by Creutz, Lance and Schuster. 'The freshmen wrestlers wiped out bpth opposing teams, beating Mun­ delein 55-3 and Harvard 57-12. Falls were scored by Bill Thomas, Randy Hawley, Danny Parisi, Thad Fon­ taine, Chris Brown, Chris Shower and Pat Miller. . r Ham And Meat Shoot t .The McHenry Sportsmen's Club will h^ld a ham and meat shoot on Sunday, Dec. 12 at their range on Weingart Hoad.

"It tells you our strength is playing together and not beat ourselves. So far we have not beaten ourselves." "They (substitutes) came off the bench and did a good job. Joe Majercik, Larry Zuley, Greg Sobiesk and Brian Suidak all did a good job. They came in and blended in well and contributed. They came off the bench and continued the same intensity the kids on the floor already had. "We were down the whole first half. The kids stayed in there and didn't lose sight of what they were doing. In the second half we just settled down. We were a little nervous the first half. Our shot selection was a lot better and we were able to get inside." Johnsburg's Jeff Fowler, Jeff Preston and Mike Majcik eacl* con­ tributed 13 points for the winners. Marian's Chuck Hartlieb led all scorers with 18 points, while Tim Truckenbrod had 10v "We had a lot of Jfpul trouble," said Hurricane coach Hans Rokus.

The Spartans torrid shooting con­ tinued in the second period as Wallace and company stretched their lead by 18U$<# W^rrppp. _ sn Warrior Coach Ken Ludwig Warrior Coach Ken Ludwig disappointed ip the; play of the Warriors.' The score was the big difference in the game. Too many times we fumbled a ball around the basket and didn't get off a shot."

The Warriors outscored the Bucs 21-12 in the last period, but that wasn't enough as the Warriors lost their second game of the season 65-49. "We have better rebounding than last season and we are at least scoring more points," said Ludwig. "We have " to improve on our half court defense. Our press is Working fairly well, but* we have to |&t b&ck and sefup'titt^ regular defense. We seem to have some trouble." "Our shot selection is fairly well, but the ball didn't drop in the basket" Ludwig was impressed with the play of Randy Lively and Jim Jablonski coming off the bench, ~~; ~~~ • Ludwig added, "we still have a lot of work ahead of us to become a ball team." • The Warriors are at Cary-Grove ior a Fox Valley opener on Friday and then take on Grant Saturday.

"We're just delighted we could beat three Double A schools." He admitted, however, that he would like to see the Hornets win by comfortable margins, rather than having to go down to the wire time and again. But close scores were the norm for the tournament. The two-day tourhament was a basketball fan's delight with only one game being decided by more than two HOW DO baskets. The only game with a decisive difference was Woodstock's 88-77 win over Hononegah Saturday afternoon when the Blue Streaks completed 28-of-42 free throw at­ tempts, including 14 in the fourth quarter. Jamie Eriksen scored a tournament-high 37 points with 20 in ; the second half. Most of the games weren't decided until the final buzzer.

Harvard edged Grant 39-38 in the third game, then Grant nipped Woodstock 45-43 in the fifth game. Harvard, on the verge of blowing out Hononegah in the final game, saw ; an 11-point lead vanish to a 62-60 win for the championship.
