Creighton gym. The game, which was mat-rcd by roughness on both sides, was hard fought from whis tle to whistle and was much closer than the score would indicate. Much credit must be given to Coach Drennan's men. All are playing their first year of high school basket ball. At no time in the first three-quar ters did the Teclisters ha>e a com fortable lead and even in defeat the Prepsters out fought their opponents. A little better basket work on the part of the losers might have pro duced a different result. The work pf Coach Drummond's men was not up to that displayed against ,Sioux City last Saturday. They made up in ability to sink the baskets anything they lacked in fight and team work, and it was this superior knack of caging the leather that brought them through another game with a clean record for the season. The Maroon and White got busy in the second period and forged to the front on baskets by llolm and Nelson. The score at the half was 10-5 in fav or of Tech and they held the advan tage through the remainder of the game, although Prep was adways threatening. Drennan strove to save the game, in the last quarter by in jecting substitutes, but they were un able to break up the Tech game even when Drummond sent his “subs” in. The work of Captain Holm and Othmer featured the game for the winners. Holm played about the best defensive game on the floor anil slipped through two king shots 1 while Othmer was high point mail with six free throws and a field goal. Caniglia and Walsh featured for Prep, although the latter missed a lot of free throws, sinking only one in eight attempts. The lummurv : TFAH (I#) r.n. r. r.r. rt#. rimrnquUt. rf .. ?. .
