Falcons Fall 90-70 Friday At So. Central The John Glenn Falcons fell to the strong South Central team Friday night by a score of 90-70. In this free scoring duel. South Central displayed why they are carrying one of th*' top records in Northern Indiana as strong offensive attack was < mbmt’d with a sometimes pressing z< ne that forced errors, st* le the ball and just almost completely humilated the Falcons with the exception of a fine performance by Greg Amor. The game was close for the best part of the first period until the Sate llites made th* it move that pulled them ahead. Bluhm, on a set play, opened the scoring as th« game started taking a lead pass on the tip and he cracked a 17 foot jumper as only two seconds had passed Larry Groves hit a lay-in for the Faicons first point and then Bluhm hit again and Cunningham added a lay-in that made things h-ok a If they were going to run the Falcons right out of the gym from the word go. r, the Glenn team had other ideas. Craig IH-Mycr hit a one hander from about 12 fret and Greg Amor then tied th* score as he hit a rebound shot on which he was foulded and he converted th*’ free throw for a 6-6 score. Jack Ross hit from the corner for a brief lead. King hit a medium depth jumper and Mike Niksch. the Satellites high scoring machine who always goes to play ball, put a rebound shot in. giving the !<aPorte County team a 10-S lead. Amor faked from the pivot and drove in for a lay-in and John Stasko then pushed the Falcons ahead once more with a shot from the baseline. The Satellites, getting all the breaks at this point in the game, then took the lead for good as they scored freely for a while around, through and over the Falcons zone defense. Emerick tied the score with a lay-tn from under the bankboard Nikcsh hit one of two free throws a pretty steady stream of Whistles was taking Its toll on the Falcons chances even though South Central wan missing free throws early in the contest. King hit next and th* n it was Niksch with another pair of fr*e shots. He added a basket before Amor's free throw broke the nm-' point scoring streak. Niksch then Converter! a free throw on a t«* hnicai foul and King hit <>n* <»f two and then came tiack with two more from the foul line as th* •coring action had changed to a point nt a time. Ross hit a pur of charity *hots for the Falcons only to hav* King hit a short jump and the next time down the floor, a lay-In. Amor's two free shots with :19 to play in the quarter ended the period with South Central leading by a 27-17 score. The Satellites really broke fast in th*’ M-cond period and Nlksch was the main reason Huhnke opened with two m«*re fr.-e throws and Niksch matched this as the high number of fouls being called al reads had one Falcon Starter with four fouls and another with three. Emerick hit from the corner, but again Niksch stepped to the 15 foot line and hit two more one- pointers. He then hit two jump shots in a row and the lead had ex pl* aded to 39-27 before Am«*r again broke the streak with a pair of free ahoU. Niksch then hit his favorite shot about an eight footer from the baseline. Amor put a basket in f*»r th*- Falcons (continued on back page)
