Syracuse Wins Way To Tourney Finals

SYRACUSE—PIERCETON Syracuse opened the tourney with the closest game of the tourney, downing Pierceton 63-62. Neither team was able to open the game up at any time as it was nip and tuck all the way. The first quarter was played on even terms, early in the second quarter the Cubs came on strong and took a nine point lead but lost it and ended the half three points behind. The second half was a real battle with Syracuse putting up a defense that Pierceton had lots of trotole with and hit only 32 per cent from the field in the second half. Dana Cone was held to only two field goals in the second half. With less than two minutes left in the game Pierceton cut the lead to one point, the Yellow Jackets went into a stall. Cone stole the ball, the Lad tuv easy shots underneath but missed. The clock ran out in the 63-62 score.» Syracuse had fleet footed guard, Wortinger. who was a thorn for the Cubs afl evening, with 17 points followed by Thornburg 16 and Pilcher and Clevenger 13 each. Clint Pletcher had a good game before collecting his fifth fail and led the Cute with 17 points, followed bv Dick Henson with 16, Cone 12. Barry Reed U. Gtoy Boggs 3.

SYR AC VSE—MENTONE Syracuse was out to revenge an earlier loss to the Bulldogs from Mentotje and that is what they d.d by four pdints — 75-71. It was another close, hard-fought game for the Jackets. Syracuse hit 18 of 22 foul shots in the final quarter to help suppress a Mentone uprising m the later moments of the game. Again the Jackets used a balance,, scoring attack to defeat their op-1 ponents. Game honors went to Ritchey of Mentone with 24 points *» and followed by Meyer with 22 Rob Clevenger led Syracuse with 20 fol- ’ lowed closely by Bob Pilcher with 18. John Wortinger 1", and Tom Thornburg 16. Although this game wasn’t quite close as the P.enceton game, Men- ; tone did have the first quarter lead 18-17. Syracuse came back strong in. the second quarter to take a five pent lead to the dressing room. The Bulldogs cut back the Jacket lead at the end of three. periods to 53-50 and then finished it off 75-71. Syracuse and Mentone worked j equally hard at the boards with both dubs pulling off 36. Mentone committed one less error than the Jackets with only 13 total errors. Box scores follow: SYRACUSE (75» - Bauer 125. j Pilcher 661. Clevenger 683, Wick- j strom 002.

Syracuse made more errors in this game than in any of the tourney having a total of nine. The usual hot-hitting Flyers were held to 32 per cent from th? field while they are usually dose to 50 per cent. This cold spell can be contributed to a good Syracuse defense which just didn’t give. The Jackets hit a great 66 per cent from the field during the first quarter of play. As in the other games Syracuse used a balanced scoring attack with Brad Bauer leading the way with 21 points. Bob Clevenger added. 17, Tom Thorburg chipped in with 14, and substitute Max Brockets had 13. Steve Henson led Akron and all scorers with 35 points. Syracuse jumped to an early first quarter lead of seven points 23-16. Akron dosed the gap to six points at the end of tlie half 41 to 35.
