VIKINGS UPSET FALCONS 74-69 IN SEASON FINALE The Tippecanoe Valley Vikings, not having one of their better seasons, upset the John Glenn Falcons Friday night 74-69 in the season finale. A fine 33 point performance by TVS’s Johnson paced the Vikings to their eighth win while the Falcons record slipped to 14-4 heading into the Sectional Tourney at Plymouth. The game was closely contested all the way and the game was pretty much free of fouls that so often mar a game in today’s style of play. The Falcons jumped to a 19-17 lead after one as seniors Kevin Stedman and B. J. Walls spearheaded the early attack with eight and six respectively in the first period. Johnson meanwhile was also doing his thing, getting 11 of Valley’s 17 points. The second quarter remained tight with scoring a little slower and at halftime the Falcons still held on to a scant 32-31 lead. Johnson had 17 at halftime and Stedman an even dozen, his coming all on field goals. TVS moved to a lead in the third quarter. They outscored the Falcons 20-16 in this quarter as Bussard joined Johnson in leading the host Trojans. He tossed in nine in this period and Johnson added seven more. Glenn only had two players score in this period, Jason Groves hitting three three-pointers and Stedman chipping in with seven more. Trailing 51-48, the Falcons were just not able to overtake the Vikings in the last period and fell for the sixth time this season. TVS did not even attempt a free throw in
