Hawks' 4th Rally Beats

Quarter Fillmore

By Frank Puckett, Jr. Paced by a 37 point attack of the Simpson Twins. Roachdales Hawks preyed upon their guest Fillmore last night 70-67 by out-scoring the Cardinals 36-27 in a fast moving second half of action. Both teams found themselves pretty evenly matched when the buzzer ended the first quarter with the score standing at 18 all. Then with only twelve seconds past in the second stanza Roachdale coach Treece yanked his starting string and turned five fresh boys loose on the Cards. It didn’t take Fillmore long to take the hint, but instead of trying to slow the pace down for the fresh five the Cards poured on the coal and splurged with a 22 point second period output. The home floor Hawks were caught by surprise and donated only 16 points in the stanza and the Cardinals closed the first half with a 40-34 lead.

Roachdale out-scored t Cards for the first time 17 in the stanza. Wasting no time the Hawks started blasting away as soon as the buzzer starting the final period sounded. Don Simpson let go a fifteen foot jumper that made it 53-51, Roachdale, at the 7:40 mark. Before Fillmore ! could recover twin brother Simson fired from twenty feet and the Cards were under 55-51. Losing the ball on errors two more times in the next sixty seconds, Fillmore bowed under the hot hand of Ron Simpson as the 5-9 ace tossed in 9 of his 23 in the closing minutes. Ron Simpson led the attack with 23 points while his brother tabulated 14 along with Tom Doreff. Ron Cash popped in ten free throws plus five field goals to lead Fillmore with 20 points as | Mike Goodpaster followed with a close second of 19 points and | Daryl Williamson tucked away

Just an indication of how spirited the play was last night in the Cloverdale and Reelsville game. Believe it or not, here are six players scrambling for a loose ball in the

first quarter with tw r o more ready to jump into the pile.

89-59.

Clovers Take Measure Of Reelsville, 89-59

Cloverdale continued its pattern o f bumping off county teams by adding Reelsville to its list, 89-59. In the highly contested, hard fought battle, Coach Jim Miller’s patented switching man to man defense and the superior rebounding strength of the Clovers was the difference. Playing their specialty, the Clovers kept the Indians completely bottled up, except Ray Peeler, who threaded the nets for a game high of 33 points. None of his teammates tallied over two field goals. However, Cloverdale turned loose the trio of Joe Williams, Rick Ford, and Jim Coon for 53 points to offset Peeler’s one man show. In fact, nine of the ten Cloverdale players broke into the scoring column. But it was the defense again, as in the past, that broke the backs of the spirited Indians. Keeping the middle well covered, the Clovers forced the Indians to work outside or down the sidelines for their shots. When they missed. Ford and Williams were there to sweep the boards. After three minutes of play, Cloverdale jumped into a 6-2 lead and Reelsville called time out in an effort to change defensive tactics, but to no avail. At the 1:11 mark, the Indians called another time out as Cloverdale had an 18-5 advantage. The quarter ended with Cloverdale in front 22-10. The second quarter was a repeat of the first, except Williams picked up his third foul at the 7:01 stop and left the game. Reelsville, determined to make a game of it, used a pressing defense, but the Clovers, playing precision basketball Jim Miller style, worked through the Indians’ press for the good shots and vaulted to a 48-20 halftime edge. In the first half, the Clovers’ ripped the nets 17 times in 34 attempts for a cool .500 average. In the third quarter. Miller mixed his line-up playing the reserves with the regulars, but no difference was noted in the attack, as the third quarter found the - Clovers’ with a 30 point advantage. The Indians, encouraged by their coach, played just as hard as the first quarter, and led by Peeler, found their way through the defense for good shots. But at this time, the 30 point Cloverdale margin was just too much to overcome. The story of the game was r e b o u n ding. Unofficially the Clovers out-rebounded their hosts, 51-19, with Rick Ford hauling in 23 for the winning Clovers. Cloverdale, now 7-0, hit the road again for their next action. On December 10, they play Clay City. Reelsville, 4-2, also invade for-

eign territory when they tangle with Cory on December 9. Cloverdale (89) FG FT PF Williams 7 3 3 Ford 7 6 3 Truax 3 2 0 Nees 3 0 3 Coon 5 4 2 Barker 0 2 4 Hoffa 0 0 3 McCullough 2 3 2 Denny 19 3 Furr - 0 2 0 Totals ..... 29 31 23

One of the reasons Cloverdale defeated Reelsville is well illustrated here. Above is Cloverdale’s Rick Ford grabbing one of his 23 rebounds in last night’s game. Trying to prevent this is Reelsville’s Pat Clark, their tallest player, and he was called for a foul. Banner Photo—Don Whitehead Bainbridge Pointers Roll Over Monrovia

Local Junior High Netters Win Two

Greencastle’s Junior High teams marked up another win last night by defeating Martinsville in both games. The eighthers ran their record to 3-1 by a score of 37-23.

Mike Bergen was high for the eighth graders with 10 points, followed by Larry Vaughn with eight. The next game will be with Fillmore on December 15. The Greencastle Freshman, like their younger peers ran their season mark to 3-1 last night with a 20 point spread over Martinsville, 59-39. Forging to a 20-6 first quarter spread, and a commanding 35-10 halftime lead, the Cublets coasted the third quarter and let the reserves finish the game. Tony Harmless of the Cublets led all scorers with ten field goals and one free throw. The freshman and the seventh grade teams will play Spencer December 5.

In a mild upset last night, the Russellville Bees stung the North Salem Blue Jays in the Bees’ nest, 58-53.
