It was the thriller of the tour
ney Thursday night as the Blue
jays upended Coach Bill Miller’s
Inman Tigers, 53-52, to advance
to the finals.
The two clubs were never sep
arated by more than two or
three points and the lead changed
frequently as Inman was in front,
52-51, with seconds remaining.
Bay Schaffer of St Joe hit two
out of three gratis flips in the fi
nal seconds to give the Josies a
ticket to the finals.
The count was tied, 11-all, at
the end of the first; the Jays
were in front, 24-32, at intermis
sion, and 40-38 at the end of the
third.
Inman, unbeaten until that
evening, wasn’t putting out to
the extent of its capabilities, most
observers declared.
Schaffer’s 20 points included
ftHir freethrowB and a fielder in
the frantic fourth. Inman’s scor
ing was well distributed with Ned
Kelley getting 16. He was held
to three points in the first half,
hurting Inman's chances. Box
