Kirk Manns Leads Bluejays To 67-57 Win Over Falcons The North Judson Bluejays, featuring the great offensive performer, Kirk Manns, was too much for John Glenn Friday night as the Falcons got a great performance out of their only senior, Troy Skiles. The 67-57 victory for the Jays found Manns, the state's leading scorer for last season and averaging 33 points a game this year, toss in 37 in the winning performance, but Skiles was only slightly behind with 33 of his own for Glenn. The loss dropped the Falcons to 3-5 for the year while the Bluejays increased their record to 7-1 with the victory played on the Bluejays' home floor. It was just a case of too much Manns from the word go. Despite concentrated efforts, which he gets from everyone, he was able to get the Jays off to a first quarter lead with two baskets and four of four from the free throw line. With his teammates tossing in six more points, it was 14-11 with Skiles. Roger Spear and Pavey hitting the 11 points for Glenn. Manns was just about the entire offense in the second quarter as the Bluejays do not look for a lot of offense other than Manns and are content to play a patient game in seeking the right opportunity. This resulted in the North Judson team only taking 15 shots in the first half, making good on eight while the Falcons of Gordon Mosson were also good in shot selection and canned a total of nine out of 15. However, the eight of eight from the line for Manns plus two more free throws by David Haugh made it 28-23 at the main intermission. Manns had 12 in the second period and 20 for the first half while Skiles paced the Falcons with 10 at the halftime break. Pavey with seven, and Spier with six, the only other Falcons to score in the half. The Bluejays broke it open in the second half. Manns tossed in 11 points on five baskets and one free throw and four other Jays got two points each to outscore the Falcons 19-10 and open a safe margin of 47-33 after three. This led to a wide open final stanza, as Glenn had to force the action and open up the play all over the court. This resulted in a free scoring quarter in which Skiles really stole the show as he tossed in

16 points in the final stanza. However. the balance of North Judson once the game was opened up, and the many trips to the free throw line made the difference. The forcing action resulted in the Bluejays going to the free line 19 times, with only eight of the attempts being good while of the 11 misses, four were the first of one-and-ones. giving them a potential 23 points on free throws in this quarter. Almost everyone went to the line but Manns, but he tossed in three more baskets to raise his game total to 37. Skiles 16 points came on six baskets and four out of five from the line. The Bluejays outscored the Falcons by just two points from the floor, 23 baskets to 22. but their 21 of 37 from the free throw line made up the difference as Glenn hit just 13 out of 27. North Judson also controlled the boards 29-20 for the game. In addition to Manns' 37. seven other Bluejays scored but none reached double figures. Spier found the double digits for Glenn with 11 for their only other double figure total. Glenn Wins B-Team Game The Falcons did manage a split for the night as they won the preliminary game 33-30 in a close contest.
