Eastern States Basketball Tournament GLENS FALLS When it was announced that the basketball team had been offered an invitation to the Eastern States Basketball Tournament, the members of the squad had their fondest hopes fulfilled. On the 26th of March, they were sent off amidst the cheers of their fellow stu- dents, to be followed the next day by about twenty determined backers. lt was our misfortune to draw the defending champs, St. Thomas More of Philadelphia, for our initial test and although the boys, led by Eddie Bugniazet's i6 points played a whale of a game, the Golden Bears were the better team that night, winning 55 to 4l. The following morning the team received Holy Communion in a body and despite their setback, vowed to win their two remaining games. On Friday afternoon, the Irish of lona opened their determined drive for the Consolation Tourna- ment championship by downing Canisius Prep of Buffalo. Again Ed Bugniazet paced the team, this time with 20 markers. The game was a thriller all the way with Captain John O'Connor's masterful passing and generalship leading the way to a 46-44 overtime win. In our next outing, against Monsoon Academy of Massachusetts, once more the Irish outpointed their opponents 'by a count of 80 to 70. As usual Bugniazet played a mar- velous game, once more basketing 20 points. He was. not the high scorer however, for Big Jim McLoughlin tallied for 37 points, setting a new school record and missing the tourna- ment mark by one point, lt was the most points scored by any player in this year's tourney and was a truly great performance. On Saturday night, at a banquet held in the Queensburry Hotel, where the teams stayed, Captain John O'Connor accepted, for Mr. Kirnard and the team, the trophy symbolic of the Consolation Tournament championship. On this triumphant note, the Fighting Irish from lona rang down the curtain on the greatest basketball team in the school's history. 3 1 if ills s, 0 o o Eli? y ls M..- s.
