,K IH'-IE EA 35 ne 3, 1979 Greendale, Wisconsin Wrestlers Win Several Of The 19 9 Conference Seats Five Martin Luther wrestlers won conference championships, but a lack of depth hurt the Spar- tans as they finished third with 88 l!2 points, behind Watertown Northwestern Preps with 103 and Racine Lutheran with 92. Jim Lamm at 105 pounds, Dave Schuldt at 132, Dan Luedke at 145, Dan Levan at 167, and heavyweight Tim Moravek all won their respective weights, while de- fending champion Bob Sanders took second at 155 pounds. A little dismayed after winning live of twelve championships and not win- ning the tournament, Coach Ted Richter remarked that he was real happy with the six named above, but that his other wrestlers are still learning and were not yet ready for the meet. He has one big consola- tion, however, in the only one of his five champions, Schuldt, will - not be back next year, so the Spar- tans should be very strong for the future. Final Editionw Spartans Win, Share Prep Lead Martin Luther survived a late rally by University School and moved into a tie for first place in the Midwest Prep Conference basketball race Friday night. Jim Povlick and Don Leifer each made a free throw in the final minute and a half to help the Spartans score a 63- 61 victory over the Wildcats at University School. ' Martin Luther moved into a tie .for the lead with Bur- lington St. Mary's, which was idle. Both schools have 4-1 records. Wayland, 41 -321 Beaver Dam Wayland recorded its first conference victory of the season with a 41-32 decision over Water- town Northwestern at Bea- ver Dam.

I 2 wavhnd 0 1 Any team that shoots 7795 in the second half, you can't beat, said Coach Al Koepke of Martin Luther. It was just the wrong breaks at the wrong time. By Tom Faupl of The Journal Staff Burlington St. Mary's helcl together when it counted the most, but Coach Bob Peterson wasn't about to do any bragging. 7 The Hilltoppers, after all, had held a comfortable nine point lead late in the game before surviving a furious rally by Martin Luther for an 83-77 victory in a Midwest Prep Conference basketball game at Martin Luther Friday night. Well, it was good to see us win that one, said Peterson. Both teams got sloppy toward the end, but it was good to see us not fold after they, had cut the lead to two. I'm not bragging, though. St. Mary's held a 76-67 lead with less than four minutes remaining, but then Martin Luther started to chip away. , , After three straight field goals by Martin Luther, guard Jim Povlick scored on a jump shot from the top of the key, and the Spartans trailed with 1:30 left, 77-75. Bob Smetana, who scored 20'points, made a layup for St. Mary's, but Martin Luther's Jeff Lemke responded with his own IayL1P, and with 21 seconds left the game was still up for grabs. John Smith, though, delivered the clutch per- formance for St. Mary's after he was fouled twice in the final seconds of the game. Smith sank four 'Qree throws, finishing with 27 points. Don Smith Scored 19 points and Steve Luethy added 18, including 14 in the second half, for Mar- tin Luther. But the Spartans couldn't overcome St. Mary's 77 7, shooting average in the second half. The Hill- toppers made 17 of 22 field goals, while Martin Luther shot 5775 by making 21 of 37 shots.
