Show Senior Win Gives Cubs Hoop Record An inspired Cub varsity Friday, February 20, rounded out an undefeated un-defeated year with a championship already behind them by hitting the East aggregation for a 42-24 victory vic-tory on the Deseret Gym floor. Coach Jimmy Gilbert was "all smiles" as his "A" boys completely complete-ly dominated every field of play to smother the hilltoppers. After holding the blue and white team to a first quarter 5-5 tie, the Leopards Leop-ards completely fizzled and allowed al-lowed the Southerners to sink baskets bas-kets from every position in East territory. When the half-time gun sounded it was hardly more explosive ex-plosive than the rampage the Cubs were on as they slapped East for a 24-12 score. Particularly impressive to fans was the performance 1 of all-city Ray Ecker. High-point man for the evening with a total of 12 points, Ray also was outstanding at his defensive post as he blocked East passes and scoring attempts. lso on the honorable mention list is Dave Cooper, who was largely responsible for keeping the ball in pay territory for the South men. Coach Gilbert has manufactured his machine this year without the services of any of last year's regulars. |
