Of course the Warriors with no wins and Dundee with a single victory, didn't help much. The Gators of Gary Collines were 8-1, the Blue Streaks 5-1, Jacobs and Central both had 6-3 records. Cary Grove managed an even split with 3-3. Crown last in the conference managed a 5-3 outside record. The Warriori with 0-5 and Dundee 1-6 rounds out the Fox Valley records against the opposition. To review the holiday games for the Fox Valley, Crystal Lake South won the Grayslake tourney. Crown lost the consolation championship ;r. the same tourney. Woodstock won their opener at Wheeling, and they lost 66-64 to St. Viator in the second round. The Warriors lost both games at Wheeling. Jacobs was defeated by Kaneland at the Hampshire Tournament, but went on to take third place. Dundee lost consolation finals at Elgin to Fremd, who the Warrior's opponent tomorrow night. Crystal Laki Central split four games at DeKalb. Cary Grove did not participate in a holiday tourney this 'year Bob Kies, former Johnsburg Skyhawk coach, is riding high these days in Quincy. His Notre Dame squad finished second in the Macomb Tournament losing to Monmouth in the finals. For their season performance of 12 wins and the one loss, the Raiders of Notre Dame are rated fourth in Class A in the state. Of course the likeable coach has to take a back seat to the Blue Devils of Quincy High, wh are ranked first in AA, and have a 46 game winning streak, 11 short of the record held by Thornridge in the days of Quinn Buckner, Lloyd Batts and company. Coach Ken Ludwig had an enjoyable time at the finals of the Wheeling Tourney. All that the coach had to do was sit through eight overtimes before North Chicago emerged the winner 76-62 over Maine West. The eight overtime ties a £tate record, but is still five short of the national record held by teams in West Virginia, and Tennessee. Anyway according to Coach Ken, it was a long evening. The top game in the Fox Valley tonight will pit the two leaders, Crystal Lake South who will invade the Blue Streak gym. Both teams are undefeated in conference play, and one ,of them will have to fall. The Woodstock gym should bea rather loud place to be tonight. Going down memory lane this week we take you back to the 1956-57 season, when the Warriors of Cliff Fulton won a hard fought, thrilling game over the Scouts from Lake Forest 45-42.
