Westminster never got close to the Hubs who held a lead all through the game. On February 5 Hub hopes were down until the third quarter when North High caught fire and bottled up the Cadets with a full court press. After waging this uphill battle, they upset Frederick 54-47. By edg- ing the Rebs 38-36 North High made a City Championship playoff a necessity and got revenge for the setback handed them by South High earlier in the season. This furious comeback was no doubt inspired by the red attire of the student body. February i2 found the Hubs on the State Armory floor where they took the lead in the city title race by defeating the Gaels 4O-34. In this see- saw game the score was tied on seven occasions. Five days later in a disheartening clash with the league leading Martinsburg, the Hubs fired up efforts were in vain. Ahead the entire game, North High faded in the final minutes and bowed to the victors 58-54. February 20 was a red letter day for the Hubs when they triumphed over the Rebels 46-42. This victory clinched the Washington County Class A and City Championships for North High. Senior Tom Hawkins, strong at the foul line and on the floor, sunk 23 of the 46 points. This triumph marks the third consecutive year that North has retained the city crown. Ignoring superstition, the Hubs grabbed victory number l3 overwhelming the Campers 55-46. North High closed out its regular season on February 24 and ended up in a tie for second place in CVAL competition. After Coach Henry found the winning combi- nation, the slow starting Yankee team came out from behind to finish with a l3-7 record. North High and Allegany emerged with identical 6-4 records in a tie for second place notch in the Cumberland Valley Athletic League, Of course, this good record was the result of the efforts of the whole team but outstanding among the Hubmen were seniors Tom Hawkins and Bob O'Brien and two promising juniors, Richie Hawkins and Jim Riser. Now the Hubs have won the right to play the Allegany Campers in the Maryland State Dis- trict l Tournament for the third straight year. l l
