win over South Dakota Monday
night. Having finished a lough

pressed to beat the sharp shoot

I Nebraska managed to salvage

in the first game and were edged

Despite a final round, 44-40,

Missouri boasts one of the best

Record High
Colorado, the surprise team of
the Big Seven before the Kansas
City tournament, has been pluy-
! ing inspired ball with veteran
support from Kendall Hills.
Hills, a 6-2 eager from Boulder,
is headed for his best year as a
Buffalo forward with scores of
11, 14, 21, 11, 24 and finally 16 in
the first encounter of the Big
Seven tournament against Ne
braska. The 24 points that Hills
managed to pile up, set a new
season's record for the Buffs, re
placing their last year's individ
ual record of 18 points, also set
by Hills.
The only blot in Hills' scoring
i is the five points he was held to
by an Emporia State quintet, but
