Senior Bruin learn captain Hal Oberholzer get: bis :hare of the reetioual Jpoilt. The ceremony rfarted a port-tourney celebration. Strong bench aided Bruins in 20-4 season The basketball charges of Coach jon Stroup piled up win after win and their second straight sectional title in as many years for ri successful 20-4 campaign. The rebuilding year started with four impressive wins. Balanced scoring and a startling press were highlights of the entire season, but were exceptional through the first four games. Peru, riding on a 10th statewide rating, was the first bent cog in the Bruin vic- tory wheel. The Tigers ran up a large late lead to win. Sectional opponents Bryant and Portland fell in succession to Blackford, but the Bruins had to hold off late rallies by both teams. Hunting- ton then stopped the Bruins 103-71, in a foul-marred contest. The Grant County Tourney kept the title in Grant County as Oak Hill bested Blackford in the championship game de- spite a Bruin comeback. Blackford then assembled a record 12- game winning streak that ran through the sectional. A two-game total victory mar- gin of 60 points gave the Bruins the sectional title with ease. In the regional, the Bruins fell to the 1970 state runner-up, Carmelg but the people of Blackford County had reason to be proud of Bruins' second win- ning season.
