Final 10 Seconds
A late rally by the St, Mary s
academy Cardinals fell short as
the Center Panthers managed to
hold on and outlast the Card
inals, 46-42, here Friday night
in a resumption of cage play.
Trailing 32-44, the Cards
i caught fire and dropped in 10
; points to pull within two points,
42-44, with 30 seconds remain
ing. A bad pass went out of
j bounds and allowed Center to
take over and Center dropped
in the clincher with 10 seconds
left.
The Cards, unable to hit with
any consistency from the field
or the gratis line, used a tight
defense to slow down the high
scoring Panthers, who entered
the game boasting a 75-poirit
per-game average.
Center moved out front. 14-9
in the first quarter only to find
the Cardinals tying it up, 16-all.
Center gained a 23-16 halftime
margin.
An early second half rally
pulled the Cards back into the
game, making the count 22-24.
The relentless Panthers again
broke away and commanded a
36-28 lead’ going into the final
session. The Cards continued to
drop behind, trailing 32-44 be
fore they made their desperate
final bid. .
Larrv Tomlinson and Jim

for the Cards, each hitting 4

'
Goodsell Wrecker in
Thrill Game
A 6-5 long boy named Good
sell spilled disaster to the O’Neill
high Eagles here Tuesday night,
leading his mates—the Burwell
Longhorns—to a 61-51 victory
over the Blues.
Coach Bill Edwards’ Eagles
are still searching for win num
ber one. They hope it will
come Friday night when they
entertain the Keya Paha county
high (Springview) Indians in a
I North-Central conference game.
The Eagles were not necessar
I ily outplayed, but Mr. Goodsell
established some sort of a scor
; ing record by rolling in 14
field goals and 13 freethrows—
a nifty total of 41 points.
The Longhorns’ height hurt
j the Blues, plus, of course, the
i ever-present Mr. Goodsell, who
j was getting most of his points
from the field. Edwards’ kids
were not necessarily outplayed
in floor game but Goodsell’s un
canny sharpshooting was simply
too much.
O’Neill posted an 18-16 first
period lead and enjoyed a 34-30
advantage at intermission At
the end of the third it was
O’Neil! 44, Burwell 42. Goodsell
whooped in 15 points in the
final stanza. Bob Young, main
offensive threat for the Eagles,
had a whale of an evening—29
points—but his production was
overshadowed by the tall man.
