We were lucky in Lion and Ram hunting. In our first district win, we blasted the Lions 58-41. The score at the half was 26-26. It was in the second half that we increased our lead. Don Davis was the leading scorer with 16 points. The entire second game was very close and as half time approached, we led 28-26. The third period ended in a 42-42 deadlock. As the buzzer sounded to end the meeting, the Lions, after a distressing loss in the first game, came back and won by a count of 55-53. Don Davis was the leading scorer of the game with 21 points and the only one of us in double figures. In our first contest with Mineral Wells, we were victor- ious 66-51. Tough all the way through, half time had us two points ahead. Jimmy Miles and Brad Wymer, however, began to stretch out the lead in the second half. Miles and Wymer were the only two of us in double figures with 15 and 22 points respectively. In the last game of the season, we lost to Mineral Wells 64-51, the second game between the two. Too many fouls, turnovers, and misses throughout the game cost us a loss. However, we stayed fairly close to the Rams until the end of the third period. Don Davis and Brad Wymer each had 14 points for the high scores of the game. Jumping high and making two, is Robert Stroud over his opponent. Sports 85
