Eagles Drop Two Games;
Host Bassett This Friday
OHS SPORTS
The slumping Eagles of O’Neill
High dropped their second and
third decisions of the season this
week as they suffered losses at
Valentine and Plainview. To
make a long story short-the once
big blue simply couldn’t cash in
from the free throw line.
After leading 30-25 ut halftime
at Valentine, the Eagles drop
ped behind in the third quarter
and could never pull far enough
ahead to control the game as
the hosting Badgers posted a 61
50 triumph. The outside shooting
of Valentine kept the OHS crew
with their backs to the wall
throughout the second half.
Senior Don Nelson’s 22 points
paced the winners while Ixiug
Sanford added 15 more. The win
ners hit 11 of 15 charity tosses
while O’Neill could manage 2
out of 10, and these never came
until the final quarter.
Rich Hill banked in 25 points
for O’Neill despite the question
able defensive tactics of the
home team.

At Plainview on Tuesday eve
ning, the Eagles hit 9 of 21 free
throw attempts but the hosting
Pirates potted 28 out of 39 while
out-hustling the OHS outfit in
three out of four quarters.
The big blue started out slow
and found themselves trailing
27-17 at halftime before they roar
ed back with 22 points in the
9 third quarter. But from there on
it’s anyone's guess what happen
ed as the Plainview team edged
into a four-to-five point lead and
then enjoyed hitting 74% of their
free throws. Dale Lortz led the
assault at the charity line with
18 out of 20 free throws. His 24
points led the winners.
Rich Hill managed 21 points
to lead O’Neill with nine of these
in the third stanza. Senior Ter
ry Kurtz collected 11 points in
the third period and fouled out
midway through the fourth quar
ter with 17 counters for the eve
ning. Senior starters Gary Ples
sell, Rich Frost and Denny Dray
ton also left the game early via
the foul route.

Coach Kokrda’s boys will
attempt to return to their winning
ways this Friday when they lay
their 14-3 record on the line
against Bassett. The game will
decide whether the Eagles make
the long trip to the West to de
cide the Conference Champion
ship on Saturday.
The OHS Reserves dropped
both contests this week as they
suffered a 48-34 setback at Va
lentine and a 41-34 loss at Plain
view.
The Eagles will attempt to im
prove their 11 for 31 percentage
from the free throw line from
the past two games. The O’Neil]
crew netted 21 out of 59 shots
from the field at Plainview.
Cards Win
Close One
From Tilden
The St. Mary's Cardinals took
their fifth win in a row Friday
night as they slipped past Tilden
43-40. Fighting an uphill battle
the Cards trailed 11-22 midway
in the second quarter before
Mike Hammond and Jerry Don
ohoe fired a spirited rally that
moved them up to a 23-24 count
before the Tigers hit for two to
go to a halftime rest with a three
point lead.
Neither team found the basket
in the third quarter as both teams
gathered only one field goal. The
Cards, hirwever, made food on
three out of four charity tosses to
tie up the score going into the
final period.
Bill Coventry and Mike Ham
mond each rammed in six points
in the final stanza to give O’
Neill a 40-36 advantage with three
minutes remaining in the game.
With 57 seconds left the Tigers
tied the score at 40-all. The
Cards, playing for the good shot,
were fouled with about 20 sec
onds left on the clock. Norman
Mudloff stepped to the free throw
line and hit his first point of the
night. Tilden gained control of
the rebound on Mudloff’s second
efiort and were moving into scor
ing position when Mudloff stole
the ball and dribbled the length
of the court for the clinching i
points with just six seconds re- (
maining in the game.
Bill Coventry and Mike Ham
mond led the scoring with 12
points each followed by Owen
Donohoe with 11.
Unable to hit well in the rough
and tumble game the Cards re
lied on good defensive work dur
ing the final half to win control
of the game. Terry Tom jack did
a creditable job of holding down
Tilden’s high scoring Rethwisch
during the second half.
