Show Activities and Intramural Notes Note otes J Dennis M McGravey Gravey Col College ege Center Director Intramural basketball season is is officially officially officially offic offic- underway and after one day of heated competition I have a few comments comments comments com com- ments about how thing went I am very pleased to see not not just just one but two teams from the downtown campus are involved in this years year's basketball league Although neither team won their first match both represented the students staff and faculty of the campus quite well The students team Shop Shooters Shoot Shoot- ers has one of only two women players play play- ers th that t are signed up this year Linda Losurdo played at a poi point t guard position and played very well A warning warning warning warn warn- ing to future opponents of Linda dont don't take her lightly or you will be burned This woman can shoot Other positive comments that I have in regards to intramural basketball would include the number of fans that we had for the first game These fans were quite vocal in their support for their favorites Everyone is encouraged encouraged encouraged aged to come out and watch We paly every Monday night from 6 10 pm p.m. at Eisenhower Jr High School There was one sour sour- note at Eisen- Eisen hower the other night One team won Eby bya a core of There rh re doubt as to which team was the better better better bet bet- ter it was in the way that they won that I question The superior team at least for that night used their height advantage to grab defensive rebounds and then throw outlet passes to their guards who either took off as soon as the other team shot or more often than not just stayed down at their th offensive end of the court cherry picking for the easy basket This is not what is all about I do donot donot donot not advocat that a team should lie down for another This would be even worse However a team is not going to improve by running up a score like this Couldn't the better team have played without f all night W Wouldn't this have been a good time timeto to work on other things that they will need later on in the season when they go up against taller squads or teams with a little more experience or talent tal tal- ent I think that everyone should remember that in you are out there to win why else do we keep score however there are many ways to win We are also out there to have fun Only one team can win both teams can have fun I have a feeling that neither team had much fun that night I am not going to end on a low I want to encourage all student staff and faculty to get involved If sports isn't your bag than get involved in inY other ac i i ties e ha vesone Y great clubs that are dong worthwhile and fun activities If you are interested in something that we dont don't offer come comesee comesee comesee see me and give me your your- suggestions There is quite a bit going on here at |
