. Oxfkiif A , 'S Wj flk ' WWWWQQ md' lm, l9TlClQ a rather weak beginning, the basketball team came through towards the end of the season to win tive o11t of eight games. The first battle found Upsala on the short end of a 36-3-1 score with Cathedral. It was a fast and furious game, but Upsala dropped it because of inaccurate foul shooting. Upsala journeyed to Bethlehem, Pa., to suffer a second successive defeat by a close score of 38-31. The victors were the Lehigh University outfit. who took a 20 to 11 lead in the first half but a Viking rally fell short in the second period. ln the Bronx, N. Y., Upsala lost again, but to the more powerful quintet of New York University. Nat Schulman, an .Xll-,Xmerican guard of 1935-36, was held to two field goals, but showed his ability by stopping the .Xlpert-Kramer combine. Playing on its home court once again. Upsala played a nip-and-tuck game to overcome Tren- ton Teachers in an exciting overtime ga.1ne by -ll-39.

Buckley and Kramer tallied in the extra period to give Upsala its first victory of the season. The Viking quintet started the new year right by winning its second victory over Newark U. by a close score of 29-25. Alpert led the attack, scoring thirteen points, while Buckley and Stanziale made a fine showing on the defense. Playing at the Fordham gymnasium, Upsala lost again by 36 to 14 to an increasingly power- ful Fordham University team. The home team took an early lead of 11-0 before Buckley con- verted a foul. lt was an exceedingly rough game with one player being forced out of the game because of personal fouls. The Yikings came home again to lose in the f1nal minutes to St. Peter's after leading the way from the opening whistle. Krainer scored ten points with Blaze close be- hind with eight. l'laying a slow, but close game in the first half, Upsala led Hartwick by 11-10.

xx QTQ f 4. v w j lk ' Wim The Vikings led most of the game but a timely rally by the home-towners gave them the victory. Kramer scored twelve points in the first half but was held scoreless in the final Canto. Juniata, their next opponent, handed the Vikings a sound beating by a 47-31 count. Upsala was scheduled to play Alfred University on the following night, but the game was cancelled. Upsala came home to crush Panzer, an age-old rival, 47-26. The entire Viking team entered the scoring column before the final gun. The game started slowly but soon the Vikings found their shooting eye to lead the first half, 20-12. Upsala broke loose in the second half to tally twenty-seven points to trim Panzer. Al Blaze led the powerful attack with twelve points, with Golgosky a close second, tallying nine. Upsala lost again to Bard College, by one point. The Vik- ings converted only half of their fouls, which accounted for another loss. Taking a 10-0 lead shortly after the opening whistle, Upsala took revenge for last year's defeat over Moravian, our ancient rivals. The score was 44-29. Golgosky, Spinelli and Stanziale performed marvelously on the defense as well as the offense. Kramer and Golgosky made a habit of taking the ball away from their opponents throughout the entire game to stop the continuous Moravian rallies. Upsala lost its eleventh and last game of the campaign to the Newark Engineers, 37-22. The Vikings fell far behind in the final minutes, every attempt to score failed. Kramer counted merely five points for the Vikings, high scoring for the evening. Upsala recovered in the next game to make its best showing of the entire season, beating a powerful Oswego quintet by 48-39. Blaze starred in the key position of the defense to completely baffle the visitors during the entire game. It was a rough and tumble battle with Golgosky, Stanziale and Kramer starring on the offense, tallying a combined total of thirty-nine points, equal to the scoring of the entire opposing team. Coach Lou Spinelli's efforts to perfect the zone system finally showed satisfactory results. Playing the annual tilt with the Alumni, the Varsity crew came through again to win, 38- 27. In the second quarter the Alumni were not able to make a single field goal against the perfect zone defense. Golgosky entered the game late in the second quarter to make ten points to lead the Varsity scoring, and overcome a one-point deficit of the first half. Straube, a freshman, was the second high scorer with eight. Nystrom, playing his last game, was third with six points. Ed Spinelli, the captain of the team, also played his last game in a Viking uniform to end a much improved season with eight victories and eleven defeats. Coach Lou Spinelli, a former Viking court player, turned out a fairly good team, and suc- ceeded in developing the newcomers into a promising squad for next year.
