Finishing out the 1956-57 basketball season, the M.H.S. cagers concluded with a season record of 11 wins and seven losses. In winning nine league games and suffering only three defeats in league action, the Minneapolis Lions captured the second place trophy in the N.C.K.L. The Lions started the season with a decisive victory over the Lindsborg Vikings 60 to 48. Then the Lions journeyed to Chapman, where a spirited Irish five handed the Minneapolis five their first defeat of the season. Getting back into the winning column, Minne- apolis won two straight league victories over Con- cordia and Smith Center to gain first place in the N.C.K.L. During the Christmas Tournament held on the local hardwoods, the Lions fell in the first round of the tournament to an impressive young Ells- worth team 63 to 53. ln the consolation bracket, Minneapolis won over Lincoln 46 to 4-2. As league play resumed, the Lions bounced back into stride as they overpowered the Lincoln ALCID HOOVER LARRY KRIECH Leopards 69 to 45 on the local floor. The Lions then took on their Challengers for the league title, the Belleville Buffaloes. After a hard- fought double overtime game, the Lions went down for their first league defeat 56 to 53. With an 'unconquerable spirit, the Lions won two league victories in a row to press close to the heels of the league-leading Buffaloes. Meeting the Sacred Heart Knights for the first time on their home floor, the Lions lost to an always tough foe 67 to 62. The determined Lions then pounced on two league foes, and won both by comfortable margins. Traveling to Belleville for a chance to tie the league, the Lions again lost a heart-breaking game 66 to 64. In the final two games of the season the Lions showed a spirited drive that ended the season for them with two league victories over Marysville and Beloit, and put the Lions in undisputed second place in the N.C.K.L.
