VARSITY WINS C. G. S. A. OPENER The Towson Catholic C-irls' basketball team boasted a 44-33 victory over the ln- stitute of Notre Dame in the first game of the newly formed Catholic C-irls' Scholas- tic Association, on February i, in our gym. Lois Reed's point-a-minute scoring gave her a total of 33 points. Notre Dame succeeded in tieing the score at I5-I5 in the second quarter, but Lois Reed followed through with two field goals which put our team ahead I9-I5 at the half. A new zone defense put in play by the T. C, guards enabled them to limit the Notre Dame forwards to I8 points in the second half, while our forwards: Billingslea, Mooney, and Reed racked up a total of 25 points. OUR FRIENDLY RIVALS LOSE In the initial fray of the season, T. C. triumphed over the alumnae, 22-I3. The High School team sparked by Lois Reed's I5 points, succeeded in keeping the lead throughout the game, the score at the half being I2-9. T. C. TRAVELS The Towson girls traveled to Sparks on two separate occasions, to defeat the host team 40-25 and 35-I2, Our girls proved to be faster than the comparitively short Sparks team, and were able to hold a safe lead throughout both games. THE TEAM LOSES A CLOSE ONE In another early battle this season, the Varsity six bowed to Patterson Park, 22-I9. Unused to a large court, T. C. lost out in the first half -by registering only 2 field goals and 2 foul shots, giving the Pats a I3-6 leeway at the half. In the final half we outscored them, I3-9. BELAIR TWICE DEFEATED As the result of a trip to Bel Air, T. C. took the latter team into camp 40-20, The highlights of the game were the two strings of guards, who were alternated quarter by quarter, and allowed Bel Air only three field goals in the first half.
