Capping the 11-team tournament tour-nament held over the past two weekends at Park City High School, the game featured fea-tured the Division Two champion Mustangs against the Division Three champion Miners. But most of the attention went to the two men in the striped shirts.

So many fouls were called that the two teams made a total of 66 trips to the free-throw line.

Alexandre Zhirov of the Soviet Union finished fourth, Wenzel slipped to fifth and Steve Mahre was sixth. After the race, Stenmark spoke about his problems getting up for the races this year. "I lack motivation in my first runs and when I try harder in the second, it's too late," he said. "I started training too early in the fall and now I'm having a tough time finishing the season.

Perhaps the most dramatic drama-tic game of the tournament was the North Summit Braves' 63-59 overtime win over the Wendover Wildcats. With the score tied at 52 at the end of regulation time, it could have been anybody's game. But the Braves scored the first basket of the overtime period, then wrapped it up from the free-throw line when the Wildcats were forced to foul to regain possession. Again, officiating was a factor in the outcome. The Braves made 38 trips to the free-throw line, scoring 27 points. Nevertheless, the Wildcats stayed in contention conten-tion and actually were ahead early in the second half until a controversial foul call interrupted their concentration. concentra-tion.

Zhirov, a lanky 22-year-old from Moscow, won the giant slalom by a comfortable 1.22 seconds over Gerhard Jaeger of Austria. Stenmark finished third. Phil Mahre was seventh after the first run but had trouble at the start of the second run as he slipped past a gate and had to come to a complete stop to make the turn. That mistake dropped him back to 20th place. "The Japanese snow is very difficult to ski on," Mahre said later.

For more than six minutes there was no scoring at all. North Summit forward for-ward Troy Bowen finally broke the drought with a basket late in the quarter, and the Braves went to the dressing room with an 11-9 lead. The second half was a seesaw affair, with both teams putting on an incredible in-credible display of outside shooting. The lead changed hands several times in the final few minutes. Then, with the Braves holding a 41-39 lead and only two seconds left, South Summit senior Kenny Jones went to the free throw line with a chance to send the game into overtime. He hit the first shot, but bounced the second shot off the tim. The Wildcats were out of the tournament. South Summit's Travis Hatch was the game's leading lead-ing scorer with 13 points. However, Hess clinched the World Cup slalom title on Saturday and set a record by winning her fifth slalom in a row, finishing 18 hundredths of a second ahead of Cooper. Tamara McKinney of Olympic Valley, Calif, is still in first place in the women's World Cup standings, but is only five points ahead of Nadig. McKinney finished fourth at Furano in both the slalom and giant slalom. The World Cup circuit now moves back to Europe for men's races in Borovetz, Bulgaria. A slalom is scheduled for March 24 and a giant slalom the following day. Both men and women will wrap up the season the following weekend with a giant slalom and parallel slalom at Kranjska Gora, Yugoslavia. That weekend series will be a major factor in deciding the men's overall standings, the women's giant slalom standings, and the .'Nation's Cup.
