YELLOW JACKETS By Bob Shraiuka Kendallville’s Comets broke a halftime deadlock and went on to hand the Decatur Yellow Jackets a 62-52 loss in the Kendallville goal hall Friday evening in a Northeastern Indiana Conference battle. The Jackets and the weather outside the gymnasium were identical in the second half — cold, as the Decaturites were able to score only 18 points in the final 16 minutes of actions, after the two clubs had battled on even terms throughout the first half. The victory was the fifth in 14 outings for the Comets, and their second NEIC win in five tries. The loss was the 10th of the season for Decatur, against two wins, and left them with a 2-4 NEIC slate. "Hie Jackets swing right back in action this evening, traveling to Elmhurst to meet the up and down Trojans. First Lead Max Elliott’s pass to Sam Blythe and the sophomore’s basket gave the Jackets the-first lead of the game at 2-0, but a pair of jump shots by John Bodenhafer jumped the Comets into a 6-4 lead. The hosts held the lead until a bucket by Elliott in the final minute and Blythe’s free throw after the horn had sounded tied matters at 17-17. Elliott and Blythe scored all the Decatur points in the first quarter, nine and eight, respectively. Tie At Half Kendallville took the lead early in the second round, but a threepoint play by Greg Ladd and Elliott’s two-pointer gave the Jackets held the lead until the 24 seckets hel dthe lead until the 24 second mark when Dennie Herr scored, for a 34-32 Comet lead. Kenny Riffle’s jumper with five seconds remaining tied the two NEIC clubs at 34-all at halftime. Then came the cold Decatur third period, when the Jackets hit just two field goals and a neir of free throws and Kendallville held a 49-40 lead entering the final period. The Jackets improved a bit in the final quarter, but were still able to score only four field goals and four free throws. Reichart's 12 tallies led the Comets, and Axel added 11 and Bodenhafer 10. Elliott paced Decatur with his biggest point production of the season, 18, while Blythe hampered by early foul trouble contributed 12. Greg Ladd was held under double figures for the first time this season, as he tallied nine points.
