It was a close, hard fought battie all the way, no more than three points separating the two teams yj any stage of the game. Huntington held a three-point lead, 7-4, at the half. Hill lose scored the wiuning points in the last 30 seconds of play. After numerous Commodore shots had failed to stick, Lose grabbed a rebound and connected from underneath for his only Held goal of the game.

Lose and Braden each scored once from the field and Hain added a charity point. Pegan and Godfrey led the Hunt-1 ington five with two field goals each.
