Taking the ball from a jump,
the Minutemen advanced down

at the basket before a Lexington
player was fouled with 15 seconds

Choosing to take the ball out
bounds instead of shooting the

to deadlock the score but to no
avail and the crown went to the
Maroons.

stretched their lead to 10 points
and kept rt that way in spite of
all the efforts by Oakland's John

definitely off his form, but never
theless, he led almost all of the
Oakland plays.

respectively led the cold Vikings.

points against the Paxton crew.
Leading 6-4 at the first quarter,
Hampton was threatened by a
fast Paxton drive in the second
canto. After Hahn and Larscn
had scored a setup and free throw
respectively to draw the count a
9-4, Blake, Cummings and Ander
son hit for the Tigers and it was
11-10 with two minutes remain

Cummings brought the score
to 1 1 -all on a charity toss with a
minute and 15 seconds of second
quarter, to go. Larsen put the
Hawks back into the lead with
15 seconds remaining as he cashed
in on a foul by Cummings. From
there on the Hampton crew was
never threatened.
