Basketball with a tagsteam wrestling touch! Lancers' Moore preparing to pass off the basketball! .Qtr X Qv N HOME AWAY LANCERS I 111 , 94 I REDMEN 45 49 The razor-sharp Lancers launched their 1961- 62 Senior Intercollegiate Basketball League schedule in dynamic style by lambasting the OA.-VC conference entry 111-45. By registering this score Hank Biasatti's basket-happy hoop- sters established a new all-time scoring record for St. Denis Hall. Previous to that, the Lancers' highest scoring victory came at the expense of the McGill University Redmen, 106-48, and Feb. 20, 1959. The O.A.-V.C. quintet which made its league debut with this game, was certainly in the same class with that McGill crew of three seasons ago. They were outclassed from the opening whistle and certainly didn't look as if they belonged in the same league as the Lancers. The Lancers dazzled both at the free throw line and in scoring field goals. They pumped 101 shots at the basket and 43 of their attempts found the range for 42.5 percent accuracy. The squad connected for 25 of their 31 free throw attempts while the Redmen were successful on only 19 of their 31 charity tosses. RAMPAGING LANCERS RIP WESTERN, 65-50 While an overflow throng of 2,200 spectators whooped it up in New Year's Eve fashion, Bias- atti's rampaging hoopsters claimed their fifth straight conference victory by trimming the de- fending champion Mustangs 65-50 at St. Denis Hall. The triumph, accomplished in an expert and thorough manner, secured the Lancers in their first place berth in the conference standings. Assumption outclassed the Western squad in every department. The Lancers outplayed, out- hustled, out-rebounded, and outscored the Mus- tangs. Coach Biasatti shuffled his players in and out of the line-up freely, and although nobody was hot in the basket-scoring department, the Lan- cers' superior bench figured prominently in the victory. Sharing Top scoring honours were Assumption co-captain Ron Graham and former Lancer star, Leo lnnocente. Both counted for 13 points apiece.
