Jackets Defeat Airedales To Break Losing String; To Play Bluffton Tonight

By Bob Shraluka Decatur’s Yellow Jackets and Bluffton’M Tiger* meet In the championship game of the Bluffton holiday tournament this evening, following victories Thursday night. The Yellow Jackets snapped a seven-game losing string in the opener Thursday, with a 59-56 decision over the Airedales of Hartford City, while the tall Tigers rolled over Portland 74-63. The title match is scheduled to begin around 8:30 olclock tonight, following the consolation match between Hartford City and Portland. Snap Loss Skein Coach Bill MeCblly’s crew used plenty of hustle and some good board work by Steve Ga u s e and Tom Maddox, in snapping the sev-en-game skein and moving into the title tilt this evening. Gause and Maddox not only go*> their share of rebounds, but did good jobs on blocking out underneath, and preventing Hartford City from getting any great amount of second shots. From the time Dave Gay popped in a shot from 12 feet out with a minute and 10 seconds gone in the game, the Yellow Jackets were never headed. Steve Gause added a pair of free throws before Jerry Goodnight broke the scoring ice for his team with a free shot at the 5:35 mark. Gause followed that with a turnaround jumper off the pivot for a 6-1 Decatur lead and the local five was oh its way, although the ’Dales i\early pulled the game out of the firein the final quarter. The Jackets entered the last fray with a 45-38 bulge, after holding leads of nine to 11 points throughout the third quarter. Gay dump- '■> ed in a rebound with only 10 seconds gone in the period, but Larry Arnold hit on a jump shot and a drive-in to cut the Decatur lead to six points. I Cut To One Dale Inman narrowed the lead to 48-44 with a one-hander at the 6:30 mark, and Mike Mills’ bucket chopped the lead to 48-46. Bo b. McClure dropped a free toss,, but Mills hit another jumper and the Jackets lead was a single point, 49-48 with 5:20 to play. / McClure /scored on a perfect, pass from Gause and Jim Martin hit on his favorite jump shot to boost the score to 53-48 and ease the pressure. - Arnold retaliated with;* bucket, but Maddox scored twice on rebounds and Gause added a charity toss to up the Decatur lead* to 58-50 with 2:42 to play.
