Young Blue jays
Lose to Maroons
by 19 to 8 Score
HR Tech High
five Wednesday
night effectually
dispelled tlie hopes
of the Creighton
Prep team for I lie
' city championship
when it. won uut
over the young
T’.luejays by a lit
to 8 score in the
. 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.
