St. Mary's-17 14-St. Mary's fBay City, The visitors gave us quite a scare when they took an..early lead which we did not overcome until the final minutes of play. The foul shooting of Leahy, one of the visitors, was perfect, getting six out of six tries which gave them the lead in the first half. McPhilimy pulled the game out of fire by scoring three baskets in the last five minutes of play, and clinching the game for us. , x St. Mary's-32 8-Mt. Carmel Our team had no trouble in defeating the light and inexperienced team from Mt. Carmel. Father Hyland's boys showed their gameness by fighting every inch of the way. St. Mary's-14 18-A. H. Trade School ' We went down to defeat before our heavier and more experienced opponents by the close score of 18 to 14. Our boys fought every bit of the way and the game was not on ice until the final whistle. The guard- ing of Delaney was the bright spot for St. Mary's. ' St. Mary's-25 12-St. Joseph's Our team showing a wonderful form handily defeated the St. Joseph quintet to the tune of 25 to 12. The game was exceptionally rough, 30 fouls being called during the contest, of these sixteen were called on St. Mary's which aided materially in keeping St. Joseph's in the running, Harrigan dropping in the first ten without a miss. , St. Mary's-14 39-Grand Rapids Catholic Uncorking a brand of basketball seldom exhibited by a high school team, Grand Rapids Catholic Central defeated our lighter and less ex- perienced quintet by the score of 39 to 14. Handicapped by the absence of Bothwell, our squad did not show the teamwork of former games although there was no doubt of the superiority of the visitors. St. Mary's-22 24-Sacred Heart CMerrillQ With a small floor and low ceilings we were considerably handi- capped at Merrill but we were in the running every minute and the game was not decided until the final minute when Sacred Heart caged a basket and overcame the tie. St. Mary's-7 8-St. Joseph's fBay Cityl Playing on the canvass covered Armory floor we were slow in get- ting started but the score stood tie at the half and in the second half their center scored two baskets from mid-floor while our boys only managed to make one basket and a foul throw. -
