Clay tliun ,d« theit record 1-4 tor the y> ar wmle dn pp.ng ’he Siiamr k l> an even 3-3 record. The win w is not assured until the second halt although the Colonials t<x>k the had early and held It all the way. Chi is tiens.nger, the Shamrocks h uhng scorer all year, got the game’s initial basket but the host team tame back with six sraight points fur a lead that was never hist. They moved to a safe 18-8 first period lead as some cold shooting forced the Shamnxks to pla^ a catchup brand of ball Thw second quarter provided all the action the small < rowd could h |«' for as points went in at a last pace on both ends of the fio r. When the smoke had clear, cd a 26-22 point advantage for the Gum and While had only cut the maigm to six, 40-34, at halftime. The second half was all Colonials. 3 hey simply ran away with play in the third quarter and got a 63-49 advantage at the thiwquarters mark. Using his tench freely as often is the case but not in the platoon.ng fashion that has happened before, coach Jim Wallei > chargers had 10 men in the seen mg column, too much foi the Jim Herter crew from North Liberty. The final score was 81-70. Roger Cook and Mike Meyer were the big point getters sot the balanced Colonial attack with lx and 15 before they each fouled out. They had double figure help from Borkowski with 12 and Kueltjes totaled 10. Gensinger once again paced the Shanmxks despite a balanced at. tack of four men. The 16 leading total of Gensnger’s was all from the floor. Sheaks Hunt and Walks followed closely with 15, 14 ami 13 respectively.
