glflf Bayketball DIXON DECEMBER 13 AT UNION Our girls succeeded in easily crushing their first opponents of the 1929-30 season. The girls from Dixon could not intercept our passes, and, consequently, the score was not close. Dixon made one field goal and one foul, thus totaling 3 points to Union's 30. WEST ALEXANDRIA DECEMBER 20 AT WEST ALEXANDRIA Next we journeyed to West Alexandria and there, in our second game, the Blue and White were victorious by a score of 28-6. Although the floor was quite a handicap to us we displayed poor basketball. ALUMNI DECEMBER 28 AT UNION The Alumni girls collected a very good team this year and exhibited some real playing. They apparently hadn't forgotten any of the tricks of basketball, and again we were compelled to travel the road to defeat. The final score was 25-12. BROOKVILLE JANUARY 4 AT UNION Although they outclassed us in size, we showed them that we weren't as weak as they might expect. Almost every girl received several hard bumps but we fought till the finish, and won 18-14. FARMERSVILLE JANUARY 10 AT UNION The Farmersville team was composed most'y of tall girls who could outreach our players, but this, however, did not mean that the visiting team consisted of such excellent players. In fact, it was not difficult at all to win over them. Score: 18-6. MONROE JANUARY 17 AT UNION For another night we showed our stuff. We compelled Monroe, rivals of long standing, to bow to a 23-6 defeat. Both teams used several subs during this game, Monroe useing more than we, and although they changed their team many different ways, they did not improve it greatly. WEST ALEXANDRIA JANUARY 24 AT UNION In a heart-breaking game we were defeated again by West Alexandria. The score at the half was 3-0 in their favor, and in the third quarter we hung up one mere point to their three. In the last quarter, however, we pulled four points to their none. Final score: 6-5. CAMDEN JANUARY 31 AT UNION Camden came here with several large players but that didn't benefit them so much. When the game ended we had just doubled their score, Camden having tallied 9 to our 18. LANIER FEBRUARY 7 AT UNION Lanier had nineteen girls in suit but they did not use all of them. Anyway it is quality and not quantity that counts, and we easily romped to a one-sided victory of 24-7. TOURNAMENT MONROE FEBRUARY 22 AT EATON In a game which required two overtime periods to decide the victor, Union girls slipped through with a two-point lead thus winning their first game of the tournament. When the gun popped for the end of the second overtime period the score stood 13-11. VERONA MARCH 1 AT EATON In our second game we were also crowned the victors. In the last few minutes of play, five of our subs were used thus giving them the splendid experience of playing in the county tourna- ment. Score : 20-9. WEST ALEXANDRIA MARCH 1 AT EATON In the finals of the tournament we constituted one of the teams, and West Alevandria, the other. Although we tried every way available to score more than our opponents, we were un- successful. This was the third time this season that West Alexandria defeated usg and although it was a disappointment, we must remember to be good losers as well as good winners. Score: 11-8. Page Forty-tix

TOURNAMENT LANIER FEBRUARY 22 AT EATON We humped off our first opponents, Lanier's whiz-bang team, by a 27-24 victory, We were up against a stiff team but by diligent fighting until the last gun cracked we came out undefeated. Thus the champs of last year bowed down to defeat at the mercy of our own hands. MONROE MARCH 1 AT EATON By elimination Monroe fell to us as our next opponents. Monroe, through the entire season, was very successful on their long shotsg and in this game, during the first period, they completely out-scored us. Although in the second half we showed more competition, the final score was 34-22. JACKSON MARCH 1 AT EATON As losers in the semi-finals, we became participants in the consolation game with jackson as our opponents. In this, our last game of the season, we won by a score of 30-25.
