Amor hit another free throw, but a basket by Shuniakur and a free throw by Fred Hampe. made it 11-6 with just 2:41 left in the period. From this point, it was all free thr< ws for the Lions as the Falcon* Were getting called e nsistently trying to rebound against the taller Bremen team. Roger Stull, given a starting a signment by c ia< h H-ig' r Beeh1< r hit a.lav-in xftei n steal, but Robinet!' hit a f'i. thrmv. Stull eflt tl b td to 12-10 with • n 18 f'-'t ju! i but bulk Angelin and R ton-It' hit one of tw< fu< I 1 i w Ur the 1 t-lo bad Bn iv n enjoyed at the quarter’s •nd. . The See-nd period was something else. After John Stasko hit a free shot. Brenden promtly doubled the .score on hie. Fa Icons in exactly one, minute cind one sec<»nd. Robinette started the drive with a 14 f<iot turn-around jumper. Shumaker hit next from the side. .Mikw Mangus hit a long lay-in and Robinette finished off the drive with a shot from the corndr.

the night but baskets by Robinette, Hampe and a three-point play by Pat Stillwin made the lead 33-1.5 with less than haK the second quarter gone. From here, Bremen moved to the big lead of 4^-25, getting the last seven points of the period to do so. A 11 Hop*- Ixxd All hope was lost for the Faircons in the third period. Instead of coming out and cutting the score, it went the other way. In the first five and a half minutes nf this quarter, Bremen scored 15 points while only a basket by Stull was put on the offensive side of the Falcons’ ledger. This gave the Lions a 61-27 lead with 2:26 left in the period before Stull pegged in another basket. After Gtie Kuntz added a free throw, the Glenn team did make one surge that at least brought s tue interest back to the cam«. Amor hit from the side and T"m M.

I ’ ’jvci Mellm. an 1 Stull hit in that i ider to ^tart the final j" riod but from this point on "Ut. it was almost even as the Lion* continued to roll. Robinette continued his assault as Bremen coach Phil Hodson left his star in to score all he could in this garnet Ih spite the fact he did substitute in the «<Tond half, the two hig men under the basket, Robinette and Hundt, were still In there when the final gun sounded with the Lions ahead by 22. 77-55. Coach Bcehler. after seeing the lost cause, did play entirely boys that will be returning next year and it made the fans realize that unless something drastic happens, the Falcons will be a very small
team next season, but one of interest and shooting ability. , JWnettc lljts 37 Robinette broke the sectional. La Ville gym and possibly the alltime sectional mark dating back to the gamos that were played in Plymouth prior to the switch to LaVille in 1966. His 37 points were amassed on 14 baskets and nine <4l )A from the foul line. The majority of Robinette's points rwip' tn close a> opposed to his very capable ability to hit the jump shots from 12 to 18 feet.The balance of Bremen's points were basically picked up by three other boys in double figure* as Shumaker had 12. Hampe 11 and Stillson 10. The Falcons attack was ied by Roger Stull with 14, while D< Myer, with 12. and Amor with 10 munded out the boys in double figures.
