This was the lowest output offensive wise for Kanab all season and the young Tigers were highly complimented by the Kanab coaching staff. Milford played Inspired defense against the Cowboys from the first second on, but as It has been so often In the past, their poor scoring output fell short of what was necessary for the win. After falling behind 11 to 2 in the first quarter, they fought their way back Into the game with some big scores by Aaron In fact Mayer made six Mayer. of the eleven total field goals for the Tigers. The score at half time was 20 to 14. The Cowboys began pulling away in the third quarter but a timely shot again made by Mayer made it a little closer. Milford was down by 14 at the end of third period. The Milford guards in Teddy Bridge and Clayton Holm did not show up much In the offensive side of the ledger; however, both the Tiger guards played very well on defense and got the ball down the floor quickly for the fast break. Sherwood, Roach, and Mayer played well in Milfords match-u- p zone and contributed to the Tiger defensive effort. Kanab is no doubt the best Junior Varsity the Tigers have faced all season. Milford shot 11 out of 51 attempts for 21 and was 8 of 16 for 50 from the free throw line. Rebounding was controlled by Aaron Mayer and Kerry Sherwood with ten and nine rebounds respectively. Bridge and Holm led in the steal department with five apiece. They also led in saves with 11 and fourteen.

Milford has been short-handall season, but for the past three or four games, they have been hard pressed to have an experienced bench which is so vital in winning games. Big John Dotson and David Gay both picked up two quick fouls in the first quarter and because of this, bothTigers were hindered most of the game. When Gay picked up his third foul in the first quarter it was freshman Kerry Sherwood that came off the bench and played most of the first half. Even though the Tigers were only down by one, 14 to 13 in the first quarter, they fell behind in the second quarter ten and eleven and never were able to pick this up. The score at half time was 37 to 27. The Tigers could not get any closer the rest of the game. They trailed 53 to 40 in the third. John Dotson had his lowest output of the season with nothing from the floor and two of five from the charity stripe. David Gay, even though he only played about twelve minutes of the entire game, did very well hitting six of eleven from the floor and two for two from the free throw line for fourteen points. Even with his limited playing times he still was the leading scorer for the Tigers. Todd Williams, shooting very well as of late, dropped in six of eleven for twelve points. Williams also had eleven saves. Mark Yardley playing with a bad cold hit on six of thirteen shots from the floor and one for two from the line for 13 points. Yardley also had ten boards. Sophomore Scott Sullivan came through for the Tigers with four field goals out of ten attempts and four of six from the line for 12 points. Sullivan had 14 saves for the evening.
