The prospects for an excellent sea- son were very good, with only one member of the preceding year's tournament team lost by graduation. Coach Bud Crowningshield, with the assistance of NVilbur Lund and Elmer Ed- lund, were the men upon whose shoulders the success of this season depended. Let's see what the boys accomplished. On December 5, Worthington met Rock Rapids on- our home court with the usual ragged first game of the season. Worthington, because of last year's experience, came out on top 24 to 13. The fans were very much pleased and anticipated a good year. A week and a half passed and Worthington was scheduled to meet Blue Earth-at all times a strong team. Blue Earth had just enough polish to defeat the boys 27 to 15. However, this game proved beyond a doubt that Worthington was a snappy outfit and would never say die. The last game before vacation on December 21 was with Slayton, a team picked as a favor- ite in the district. The Slayton court was short, narrow and slippery. The Trojans, picking themselves up from the floor at the Stops mm' Turns The Victorious Overtime end of the game, found they had lost 24 to 13. WVorthington sport fans were beginning to wonder, during the Christmas holidays, whether we could develop a team of champions or not. On january 9, Worthington journeyed to Pipestone and once again felt the sting of de- feat-this time by a much closer score, that of 24 to 25. Our first home game after vaca- tion was with Windom, whom we defeated 28 to 25. Sibley, another team new to us as an opponent, fell quite easily on january 16. This was a game in which the reserves saw a lot of service and did a good job in holding Sibley to the score of 26 to l5. Next came our first encounter with Lu- verne, our most dreaded rival. The enthusi- asm of the crowd was far above that of any previous game, almost reaching tournament delirium. The game, held on January 19 on our home court, was close but the boys couldn't break the Luverne jinx. The final score read 27 to 22 in favor of Luverne. On january 26 the Trojans met jackson- a team which planned to win in basketball as they had done in football. Much to their dismay, our boys defeated them 19 to 12.

Q., get Our Second Round Starting on its second round, Worthington was determined to make a better record than the first round. Let's see! Our first second round rival was, as in the hrst round, Rock Rapids. Rock Rapids, much improved over their first game and having their home court, almost defeated our plucky team. The final score read 28 to 27. Close! What? Following in order was a Trojan de- feat by Windom, 24 to 15, and a victory over :t weak Lakefield team by the tune of 28 to 20. The boys had a chance to rest up for the all important Luverne game on February 9. The Luverne jinx was broken! Worthing- ton defeated Luverne in a fast high-scoring game 33 to 23. It was a well earned victory and on the Luverne court, at that. WVe seemed to have hit a two game win, third game loss jinx. At least, so it appeared to fans. jackson poured halls through the hoop most of the first half of our next game. Re- covering too slowly to overtake jackson's lead, the Trojans lost 27 to 25. But the boys beat the jimi and came back with strongly rc- venged defeats of Slayton and Lakefield. Slay- l0ll was mopped up by the Trojans 30 to 9 on February 23, and Lakefield was defeated 32 to 14 with the reserves obtaining good'ex- perience. Hope for our team ran high when we again knocked the jinx by defeating Pipe- 1 stone in the highest scoring game of the sea- son, 43 to 36. Both teams were playing ex- ceedingly good ball with Worthington shining but slightly brighter. Worthington, indeed, played a better second round and the coaches brought the team into a smooth, cool, confident machine which was a strong district contender. Tournament The basketball tournament, from March I3 to 15, was held entirely at night. And what nights they were! The first, as you remem- ber, was a blizzard. That was the night when Worthington won from Slayton 25 to 23 in :i sudden death overtime period. The second evening it had stopped snowing and storming and all was quiet including Worthington because we won a sleeper from Magnolia 43 to 14. The third and final evening of the tourney was also relatively peaceful until the nine o'clock championship game between two close- ly matched rivals got under way. The weather from then on was stormy until in another overtime period, Worthington was defeated 28 to 26, by Luverne. With the final and disastrous field goal, the 1940 district cage season was brought to a close. Worthington placed two men, jack Beans GriHith and Lowell Kootie Knuth, on the all-district m. sl!
