anierttrailed top ranked Johnston one game and the tanspaoked the Johnston gym. The Viks once again led and lost in the final seconds 57-58. After the Mac and Johnston losses, theiViks put it together and started knocking their opponents off like flies. Marshall Davis and Joe Abraham averaged 20 points a game and Gary Gossett dribbled past defenses. David Taveirne's rebounds gave us the possession for scoring. The Viks crushed Travis, LBJ, Crockett, Austin and Anderson in both R i games of the round robin season. fSubstitutes Bryan Markert, Eric Barnett, Jo f 2 Davis, Robert Sheppard and Lawrence Fowler provided the depth needed to make the team winners. g The only thing that stood between the J Viks and the district crown was that ,g so Johnston was ahead of them one game. s s Looking forward to the Johnston game the Viks seemed to forget they had Reagan to play. The Viks, leading 69-65 with 1:23, lost the ball to Reagan who tied the score, putting the teams into an overtime. Marshall Davis's 20-footer put the Viks ahead 71-69 with a minute left, but they missed two more shots and the Raiders made theirs, upsetting the Viks 73- 75. e e Upper left: Marshall Davis starts to play slow down the ball after the Viks take an early lead.
