Show Win Over Blanding Broncos Evens League Recorr Moab evened their Region Seven record at one win and one loss Friday by defeating the Broncos of San Juan 74-60 in a rather strange ball game. A little bit of everything happened in the hoop contest including some, but not too much basketball. Four technical techni-cal fouls were called, both teams turned the ball over far too much and the usually good shooting Broncos couldn't make a foul shot until the final quarter. Blanding was also cold at the hoop on field goals, scoring only eighteen points in the first half. The Devils too, scored modestly but were hot at the foul line. Moab put it all together for awhile in the third quarter behind Marlyn Wyatt and Mike Bunce opening a 15 point edge at the third quarter mark and 20 points earlier. The Broncos came alive with a vengence in the final quarter. Bruce Cochran and Francis Jones led a charge that put Blanding back into the game with over six minutes remaining. However, Wyatt and Ken Bohn answered the charge for Moab and the Devils coasted in easily. Four Moab players were in double figures led by Wyatt's 23 points. Mike Bunce had 16, Kim Loveridge 14 and Bohn ten. San Juan got a great game out of Bruce Cochran who totaled 24 points, 18 in the second half. Francis Jones tallied 13.
