Trying to drive around two Jacobs defenders, McHenry's Mike Bauml looks for an opening in the defense in Tuesday night's Regional opener. Bauml, who has been the Warriors' most consistent scorer all season, was held to six points as the Golden Eagles prevailed 57-35. STAFF PHOTO -- CARL MOESCHE BELVIDERE -- The McHenry Warriors saw a disasterous season end in similar fashion Tuesday night as they were trounced 57-35 by Jacobs in the first round of the Belvidere Regional. McHenry was shut out for 16 of the 32 minutes played including all of the third quarter as it finished the season with a final 3-20 record. Jacobs' 6-6 center Tom Schaefer scored an easy layup to begin the game and also to set the stage for more to follow. McHenry's Mike Bauml and Steve B^bb each con­ nected on a field goal to tie the game at 4-4 at the 5:30 mark, but then the roof caved in as Jacobs could not be contained. With Schaefer and 6-4 All- Fox Valley conference forward Mike Lange crashing the offensive boards, the Golden Eagles On The Sidelines By Djck Rabbitt It is too bad the Warriors didn't play as well Tuesday in the Belvidere Regional as they did last week against Gary Collins' Crystal Lake Gators. The Warriors were in the Gator game up until the last two minutes of the third period. The Gators, missing one of their star players in Tom Dayton, didn't look like a ball club that has won 23 straight games. If Dayton is unable to play anymore this season, the Collins crew can look for plenty of trouble ahead, especially from their cross town rival Central. These two should meet tonight for the championship in the Crystal Lake Regional. Elroy Fitzgerald, an old friend took a night off from officiating to sit with us in press row. As a member of the Crystal Lake school board, he was our enemy last Friday night, but once the game was over friends we are again. Another visitor was a former resident of our fair city, WilbertHecht. He bugged "Mac" McCracken all evening, and we are grateful to Mac, as I paid off a friendly wager to our friend Wilbert Dan Boland probably for the first time this season watched a game without the benefit of looking through the lens of a camera, and of course our old buddy DaveMihevc and son Chad who is a big help keeping stats for me. There was a huge crowd on hand for the game, one of the biggest if not the biggest of the year, and a lot of them hoping for an upset that didn't materalize. M vou saw tne final standings of the Fox Vallev Wednesday, we can now go back to Dave Mihevc's Ouija board of November 28. He had Woodstock 12-2, Central 11-3, South 8-6, Cary Grove 7-7, Dundee, Crown, Jacobs, all at 5-9. He finally picked a winner, when he had the Warriors for 3-11. On Tuesday night at Belvidere, the Warriors just didn't play gpod basketball. Their shooting was poor, and although their* miscues were a lot less than in many gantiirmis feiason' they didn't seem to take advantage of the Jacobs miscues. It was kind erf a sad way to end the season, but with a lot of returning lettermen, maybe next year will be an altogether different story. The girls basketball team will host its regional here beginning on Monday. The Lady Warriors of Pat Wirtz take on the top rated team Crystal Lake South. They could use some support on Monday night, and it will be a good chance for you to see the girls in action. To put a good taste in the mouth of Warrior fans we go back to the 1976 regional finals here in McHenry when the Warriors topped Belvidere by the score of 102-52, in what was almost a perfect game for the Warriors. Terry "Radar" Reilly led off by getting 4-of-4 as the Warriors raced out to a quick 18-0 lead and led at the period 22-4. From then on it was only a matter of what the final score would be. The Warriors made 45 of 75 for a 60 percent shooting average. Eleven of the Warriors hit the scoring column, as the Warriors won their fourth Regional in five years. 1976 REGIONAL FINALS McHenry vs. Belvidere McHenry fg ft .

John Scime's 30-foot desperation shot which went in at the buzzer added insult to in­ jury. It wasn't until Bill Her­ mann sank a pair of free throws with just under the six minute mark of the second period that the Warriors dented the scoreboard. At that time, Jacobs led 21-6. Then the Warriors' offense began clicking, Bauml and Mike Burgdorf each con­ nected from the field and Jim Wynveen tallied two free throws which narrowed the gap to 12 points at 24-12. Gary Freund's four points, and Bauml and Mark Peterson field goals brought McHenry back to a single figure deficit, but Scime's free throw in the closing seconds left Jacobs ahead 30- 20 at intermission. McHenry had outscored Jacobs 16-11 in the second period. The third period unquestionably belonged to Jack Slimko's Golden Eagles. McHenry played the entire eight minutes without scoring a point, while Jacobs added 12 more to take a 42-20 lead going into the final period. Randy Buenzli's layup with 6:45 remaining in the game recorded the first Warrior points in the second half, and he followed that with .another basket at the 5:00 minute mark, but it was nonetheless too little too late. Another Schaefer basket doubled the Golden Eagles' lead again at 48-24 and the rest of the contest became a see-saw affair with the substitutes getting in their playing time. Schaefer led all scores with 24 points, while Lange and Scime added 12 and seven points, respectively for Jacobs. McHenry was led by Peterson, Bauml, and Buenzli, who each netted six points, but the Warriors' 35 team points tied their lowest output of the season. The Golden Eagles, who improved their record to 15- 11 overall, will advance to the Regional final against Woodstock on Friday. The Blue Streaks, ranked 28th in the state, disposed of the host Bucs in their Regional opener 57-43 to improve their record to 21-3.

It's the first day on a new job and you have that queasy, jittery feeling in your stomach. Perhaps its caused by a fear of the unknown or fear of failure. But you plug ahead with the new endeavor, meet your new colleagues and get through the first day. At night you might think, "Hey this wasn't so bad. Why was I nervous?" Woodstock's 21-3 Blue Streaks know how it feels. The jittery Blue Streaks, entering the first round of Class AA state tourney basketball, survived nearly three tough quarters of basketball Tuesday and pulled awfly from host Belvidere in the fourth to win 57-43. Happy to get the first tourney game under their belts, Woodstock now has a Friday date against Jacobs in Friday's regional championship game. Jacobs earned the spot with an easy 57-35 win over McHenry in Tuesday's second game. The pesky Bucs, entering the game with a 5-19 record, stayed close enough to Woodstock through three quarters to be serious enough contenders for an upset bid. "We wanted to play a fast tempo game," said Streak coach Jack Renkens. "The kids went out there tight...Belvidere had nothing to lose." "We had to go out and get 'em," said Belvidere coach Mark Frailey. "We went out to set the tempo of the game. We cut their break off and kept the score of the game down." Belvidere actually led early in the contest as Woodstock struggled through the opening minutes of the game, missing five consecutive shots in the first 1:02. The Bucs grabbed a 3-0 lead on a bucket and a free throw by forward Jason Gorham. But Belvidere's lead was short-lived as Todd Burns. Jerry DeWane, and Bill Firnbach scored consecutive baskets for a 6-3 Woodstock lead. The Streaks later led 10-5, but Belvidere gunner Marty Voiles scored off the glass as the buzzer sounded to end the first period. In the second quarter, Woodstock went ahead 12-7 on a DeWane tip in. But the Bucs answered with four straight points, including a jumper Dy voues, to suce tne Streak advantage to 12-11. Belvidere stayed close through the rest of the half until Woodstock's Jamie Eriksen and DeWane each tallied on fast breaks to make it 22-16. Belvidere's Gorham, fouled by Burns, hit two free throws in the final minute to cut the Streak advantage to 22-18 at halftime. After exchanging baskets in the opening minute of the third quarter, Woodstock opened up a nine point lead. One score came on a length- of-the-court drive by Bill Firnbach. The Bucs shutout the Blue Streaks for the next three minutes, but managed to score only one basket to cut the lead to 29-22. DeWane broke the dry spell with a side jumper at the 2:10 mark to restore the nine-point margin, but ttie Bucs outpointed Woodstock 6-2 in the final 1:42 to slice the Streak advantage to a shaky five points at 33-28. Woodstock finally took command in the first five minutes of the fourth q u a r t e r , o u t s c o r i n g Belvidere 12-2 for a 45-30 lead. But the Bucs weren't dead yet. They tried a last ditch rally as Scott Yunk hit six straight points to make it a nine-point ballgame at 45-36. At that point, Woodstock briefly went into a slowdown game. "We wanted to calm the kids down," Renkens said. The Streaks then outpointed Belvidere 12-7 in the final 2:32. Most of the scoring came on free- throws. DeWane led all scorers with 22 points and {Hilled down 11 rebounds. Eriksen added 16 and Firnbach had 10. Gorham paced the Bucs with 13 points, while Voiles had 10. The Streaks shot 11 of 22 from the free throw line and hit only 23 of 49 from the field for 46 percent. Jack McCarthy SHAW MEDIA NEWS SERVICE J.H.
