Greencastle looks good; beat Cascade, Brazil

FOFL HERE—Greencastle’s Dee Monnett (53) got a couple of free throws off this play and the call was pretty evident. Committing the foul is Brazil's Rumbley and Stickler.

By FRANK PI CKETT. JR. Banner Sports Editor Coach Dave McCracken’s Tiger Cubs rallied to a couple of wins over the weekend that brought their season slate to 8-4 when they thumped visiting Cascade Friday night. 88-62, and then brought home a rousing victory’ over Brazil, 90-78, Saturday night. Seniors Terry Ross and Pete Norris were the big guns for the local crew as Ross pumped in 15 field goals and S free throws for game high of 83 points against Cascade and Norris let loose with 12 field goals and 7 free throws Saturday night against Brazil to tab 81 markers. The only strange things about the two games were that Brazil hit an even 50 percent of their shots from the field and Cascade fired a real respectable 46 percent. The Cubs, who has had j trouble sinking over 34 per- \ cent of their field goals most of the season, pounded away at the nets for 48 and 46 percent clips. Cascade, a S-8 team, gave the Cubs a tussle for about fourteen minutes, tieing the score on three different occa-, slons in the second period. The

a delightful 24 of 30 from the line — better than 80 percent free throw shooting. Brazil shot a honey of a percentage. 50 percent, with SI of 62 tries but fell off the pace at the line by connecting on 16 of 24. Norris had a brilliant night with his 33 markers, but he hurt Brazil with a tough 24 rebounds too. Jay Frye was next in line with 21 points and Ross had another good night with 20 points. Mike Stiffler, a 6-1 junior with a deadly aim from the deep comer of Greencastle’s 3-2 zone, dropped in 26 points to lead Brazil. The Cubs travel to Schulte Friday night.

Cardinals crush Indians with free throw, 51-50

By FRANK PI CKETT. JR. Banner Sports Editor Dave Walton only hit one free throw in five trips to the foul line Friday night when Fillmore hosted county rival Reelsville. but the 3 second shot was good enough to give the Cardinals a 51-50 victory. The contest could have been decided by any one of three players during the closing seconds as Walton missed two tries

at the stripe, Fillmore’s John Tharp missed an attempt, and Reelsville’s Chism connected on only 1 of 2 tries with thirteen seconds on the clock. It had been a topsy-turvey ballgame whth the first period ending at 10-10, the Cards leading 28-24 at the half, Reelsville coming back and leading 41-39 at the end of the third quarter, and Fillmore finally getting the one point edge at the game’s

end. The Cards started the contest in a 2-1-2 zone defense and Reelsville employed a man-to-man and things were pretty evenly matched even though the home floor team used a full court press from the 5:14 mark on. Both teams traded buckets for seven minutes in the second period and it wasn’t until sophomore John Tharp and Watlon

Ball State converted 22 of 27 free throws and used this advantage at the foul line to beat DePauw in Muncie Saturday night, 84-77. DePauw outscored State from the field. 34-31. The defeat left the losers with a 5-5 season record and a 1-2 reading in the ICC. The Tigers won’t see action again now until after final examinations when they go to Valparaiso Jan. 20 and entertain 10-1 Rose Poly Jan. 24. State trailed DePauw for the first 11 minutes of Saturday’s game, but finally went ahead for the first time, 21-20. DePauw’s Tom McGurk, who had the best offensive night of his career here with 29 points, put his team back ahead. 22-21, but Barry Kennedy’s two free throws reversed the lead again at the 8:31 mark. Tom McCormick, who had a four for 10 night from the field.

gave the Tigers their last lead at 33-32 before Gary Miller, who hit a phenomenal 10 of 15 from the field, cashed in Mike O’Connell’s personal for a one and one. Ball State led at halftime. 3835. DePauw cut the margin to 42-41 with 17:05 left. In the next six minute stretch the visitors committed six of their 15 errors and picked up only three buckets. In the meantime State hit eight baskets and assorted free throws to zoom into a 59-46 lead before the partisan 3,931 fans with 11:25 left. But still DePauw wasn’t entirely out of the game with McGurk continuing to score well inside and Dave Browning pecking away from the barkcourt. The Tigers marched to a 72-64 deficit with 3:46 left. But a passing error by Mickey Schramn cancelled a chanee to cut the lead to six and resulted

in O’Connell’s fouling John Miller who converted two. Then Schramn misfired on another pass and Steve Ricks scored from out to boost the Cards ahead 76-64. DePauw retaliated with five consecutive points, including Jim Jackson’s first of the game, but the two squads traded baskets the rest of the way. DePauw outscored and outshot the now 5-4 Cards. The Tigers hit 34 of 73 for a respectable .466. State hit 31 of 68 for .456 DePauw was even better at the line on the few chances they got there on State’s 11 personals. (The Cards were whistled for only three personal in the first half and played one 21-minute stretch with only one foul.) The Tigers hit nine of 11 at the line for .818. State hit .815.
