GOBLINS REIGN AS STATE AA CHAMPS Donnie Watts shows his form which enabled him to be the Most Valuable Player. The Harrison Goblins, being spoofed three times in the last five years, were not to be denied on their fourth try, and, after solving some last-minute troubles, captured the AA basketball championship trophy in Barton Coliseum. The Goblins put together four fine games and, along with poise, leadership, and coaching, emerged Victorious over the uprising Russelville Cyclones. Thus the Goblins won their first state championship ever. The Goblins first defeated Helena 82-65, then Benton 68-48, next West Memphis in the semi-finals 69-45, and finally eliminated Russelville for the championship, 55-43.
