We got a bye the first night of the tournament and then played our first game against North Park. By the middle of the second quarter, things looked sad as we trailed 18-'I7, but suddenly something got hold of the team and a few minutes later we led 42-23. After that we won easily. The second tournament game against Christian seemed endlessly slow as they led after a quarter, 13-7. By the time the second half was under way, we solved their slow style of play, though, and we soon built up an advantage that gave us the victory. Heartbreak followed in the championship game against Luther. In the first half we matched them almost point for point, and at half time, they led by a point, but in the second half, we iust didn't have it, and they gradually pulled away to win the tournament championship and the first place trophy by 5 points.

Frosh-Soph lnexperience hindered them, but ev- en though there wasn't an experi- enced player on the Frosh-Soph team, they turned in a good record of 7 wins and 12 losses. It seemed that we lost the close ones and the vic- tories came the hard way. The Junior Warriors started out the season right with a thrilling 45- 44 victory over St. Charles, when Dan Akens couldn't miss on his long one hand shot, but then the team slumped before it won its next victory from Luther South. Other victories were chalked up over Glenwood, Elgin Academy, Latin, and Christian.
