Although marred by loose officiating, it was still an exciting contest. Playing their final game of the year, the Warhawks won third place in the county with a 70-59 victory over Patrick Henry. Bob MacKersie scored 19 points in this fine team effort. The Hawks had proven this year that they were at least the third best team in the county.
