Warriors Overcome Whitko Stall For 59-48 Victory

By TED SPEICHER Wawasee overcame an early defasite lead by an upset minded Whitko Wildcat team only after -the “turtle type ball” caused the high geared Warriors troubles for three hard fought quarters Warrior Tim Blue connected on a jumper with 30 seconds remaining in the third quarter providing the Warriors with the lead for the first time in the game They pulled away in the fourth quarter for a hard fought 59-48 win As anticipated, the Warriors met the same styled, slow down ball game which was so successful against Warsaw one week earlier when Whitko upset the highly reguarded Warsaw squad. Whitko wasted no time in making their intentions known as the Wildcats jumped to an earlylead connecting on their first four shots. The early lead forced Wawasee to play their style of game The tough pressing zone defense of the Warriors kept the first quarter a toss-up With the help of a beautiful inbounds scoring play by JohnnyHamilton. Wawasee kept the first quarter knotted 12-12 The Warriors fell behind early in the second period 16-13 as the slowed down game started posing still more trouble as Warriors Jeff Hughes and Mark Workman each picked up his third foul.
