BLACKSTOCK - ONTARIO 986-4201 v [Cam Muir photo] - played Basketball Redman whip Saints by Danny Miller The Port Perry High School Redmen basketball teams enjoyed a successful trip to Paul Dwyer High School on Wednesday, January 31st. They whipped the Saints in all three of their games. The Junior team started off the shutout with an easy 39-14 win in a tight defensive battle. Port Perry started slowly, missing their first nine shots from the floor, but halfway through the first quarter George Burnett started find- ing the hoop and Port took control of the match. Bur- nett was also destined to have a good day on the boards as he captured nine- teen rebounds. After eight minutes Port held a 12-3 lead as the defence held the Saints at bay. In the second quarter Port Perry became careless as they turned the ball over often. Guard Dave Dickson established -himself at this point in the game as he the aggressive defence that his coach Arend Dekker demands. Dickson was to finish the game wih six steals behind teammate Burnett who had nine. The second session was the Saints' best one as they hit for nine points while Port Perry counted with ten. Port Perry surged into a 22-12 lead at half time. And then the defence really went to work. In the entire sixteen minute second half the Saints of Paul Dwyer amas- sed a grand total of two points. The Port Perry defensive game just took complete control of the contest and refused to let the opposition score. The third quarter was one which saw the Kedmen score nine and limit the hosts to two points. While the defence was doing the job for the visiting team the offence was not. After blanking Paul Dwyer for the last eight minutes of the game, Port Perry scored only eight points. It was enough, however, as Port coasted to a 39-14 win. Top rebounders for the junior Redmen were Burnett with 19, Bobby Ireland with eight and Cam Muir with seven. Muir played a strong game in the second half. Burnett was the high scorer with 17. Ireland and Rick Long had six apiece. Dickson and Muir tossed in four each and Ray Bright had two. An interesting battle has been shaping up between Cam Muir and Rick Long for a starting forward spot in Curt Pinkowski's absence. Pinkowski is expected back soon so the last spot will be up for grabs between the two. As the line up stands now, Burnett is at center, Long and Muir are starting forwards, Ireland and Dick- son are the starting guards. Kevin Harris is the most frequently used reserve. The Port Perry senior Redmen took their usual three or four minutes to warm up and then went on to win another defence oriented game against Paul Dwyer 42-28. After eight minutes Port Perry held a slim 8-5 lead in Seniors win a real squeaker by Danny Miller After watching a 12 point three-quarter time lead dwindle away to nothing with two seconds left in the contest, the Port Perry High School senior Redmen defeated the GL Roberts Lakers 74-73 in a three minute overtime. The contest was easily the most thrilling basketball game of the yar for any Port Perry team. In the first eight minutes Port Perry used a fast break successfully and instituted a gusmEmumuny VY: SAVE a.

How- ever, the Lakers were led by talented Freddie Upshaw who made some excellent shots from the outside, and were able to stay within three points after one, 17-14. In the next quarter the home side Redmen took command on the excellent shooting of Scott Wilbur and George Cope. While the Redmen offensive game was executing well the defensive aspect of the game seemed lax. Despite this fact, 'the SAVE FUEL OIL BALSA) Py Redmen held a 35-28 lead at half time. In the third quarter Cope continued his excellent shooting and was joined in the offense by Mike Patton and Rob Morris as Port surged into a big lead and it appeared as though they might coast home'to victory. The momentum swayed in Roberts' direction slightly early in the fourth quarter but it still did not look as though Port could lose. Port Perry coach Arend Dekker felt otherwise and when the Lakers narrowed the score to 59-50 with 3:18 left he called for a time-out. Dekker's confidence did not work because when the Redmen returned to the court they seemed to fall apart completely and made several costly turnovers.

Play quickened slightly in the second period as the host team drew to within a single point, 17-16. Captain George Cope was a key performer for the Redmen as he totally dominated the defensive rebounds. Port Perry took un- hindered control of the game in the second half as they attempted to, and succeeded in, speeding up the game. Rob Morris came off the bench with a very sound effort as he retrieved a total of twelve rebounds in the game with ten coming. in the. second half. Late in the game, while the result was still undecided, the Redmen went into a four corner stall which they used to near perfection in killing off valuable seconds and forcing the Saints to take fouls. Earlier in the season Port had been victimized by a similar manouver against the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame in Welland. Despite the last half effort, Port Perry did turn the ball over frequently with errant passes and loss of control frequently. Final statistics showed that big George Cope had the most rebounds for Port with 25. Mike Patton contributed eight to coincide with twelve. Gord Simmonds led the team with fourteen points while Cope had 11. An undermanned Port Perry midget team of six players edged the Saints 37 to 30 to complete the triple header sweep in Port Perry's favour. Halfway through the contest Port Perry Redmen held a 15-9 lead in a very slow paced, defensive game. Both teams exploded with a flurry of points in the third quarter as the Redmen jumped into an -eight point, 27-19 lead. Port Perry was getting excellent showings from Pete Stone, who finish- ed the game with a team high 13 points, and Peter Christie. Brett Oosterman also did a good job in bring- ing down the rebounds. The remaining eight minutes saw the contest revert to its even pace as the Port team came up with the sound defence it needed to win. CONTINUOUS FORMS available at the Port Perry Star 985-7383
