Show THE Chris Webb scored 10 and 12 points, respectively, for the game. The Bears also improved on their foul shooting, hitting on 19 of 28 tries for 68 percent. The Bear's Saturday night opponents are riding high, hoping their bubble won't burst. After being the doormat of Region Two last year, with a 9 record and 8 overall, the Tigers have come on to post five straight victories over some competition. The Tigers have edged out some squeakers over such teams as Box Elder and Tooele, a team that caught the Bears learning in their first outing. Other wins have been tallied over Jordan, Skyview and Morgan. The Bears should match up well with the Tigers, physically. Senior forward-cente- r, John Bush, stands 3 and is joined on the front line along with senior forward, Glen Unck, another returnee from last year, and junior newcomer, Mike Dockery, The guard positions are held down by 0 junior, senMark Smedley, and ior, Jeff Williams. Dockery and Bush appear to be the top scorers for Ogden with Unck close be- they finally showed signs of coming around with a 6 64-5- come-- f victory over Pocatello recently in a game played in the USU rom-behin- d Spectrum. The win was the first for the Bears after three losses that they were in all the way and a fourth against an Idaho school that would have been better left off the schedule. Coach Paul Jeppesen will see if his Bears can keep it together for two full halves Saturday night when they travel to the Ogden Tiger's den for a 7:30 p.m. game. "If we can play the first half like we did the second half the other night (against Pocatello), we'll be tough," Jeppesen said. The Bears were down 6 at halftime after trailing 22-- 9 at the first quarter mark. But by the time the third quarter had rolled around the resurgent Bears had closed to The most pleasing thing about the game, besides the grit the Bears showed in not giving up, was the improved play of the forward line. "We finally started getting a little scoring out of the front line," Jeppesen said. "Our guards have played steady ball all year." Tad Morrison, a senior, finally broke loose from his offensive doldrums to spark the Bears comeback drive in the third and especially the fourth quarters. Morrison led the Bears with 17 points on six field goals and 9 from the charity stripe. Mark Williams, the other forward, added some offensive output with some key baskets to score 10 points on four goals and 2 from the line. Center Todd Grant added 10 points of his own as the Bears put all five starters into double figures.
