Miehoff Goes Scoreless As Lions Falter By JOHN A. TROANOVITCH It.will be all over tomorrow night. Stopped short of their attempt to better last year’s Conference record, Perin State's, hot-and-cold cagers will close their season against Rutgers, University at Now Brupswiek, N. •tomorrow.' • An exclamation mark one time out and a question mark the next time, the Lion five “bid an unimpressivej adieu to 5,000-home admirers in Rec reation hall Saturday night, throwing away undisputed claims to second place in the Eastern Conference through consistently poor and reck less shooting. Lions Toss Away Lead • Leading by a slim one-point mar gin with, only 30 seconds of play re maining, the Lions forsook freezing the ball anil gambled with- a mid court shot. Pitt’s Captain Bob John son seized the rebound, snaked down the floor, and whipped the ball to Ed Spotovich, who promptly obliged with a field goal that see-sawed Pitt irtto a 26-25 victory, riiargm. But the tragedy of the night was not the taming of the once-feared Lion. The tragedy was the failure of Co-captain Sol Michff to score as much as a single point .throughout the entire game. And .it becomes more appalling with the realization that.just one field goal by Miehoff, who bad scored 101 points in nine previous league games, would have turned the tide the other way. So! Fails (o Tally Desperately, with 10,000 eyes fol lowing his every shot through the air, Sol tried to swish one through the cords.' Thirteen times the ball bound ed against- the hoop, rolled around the vim, or bounded off the back board—but not through,the basket. Miehoff, however, had plenty of company on his night off. For out of 60 shots at the basket, State scored only nine, racking up an .efficiency average of approximately 13 Mi per cent, the season’s poorest showing. Prosser Shines Again • Only bright spot in. the entire line up was big Charley Prosser. As in •Wednesday -night’s victory over Car negie Tech, Prosser , again was the big 1 gun. Not only did he score 10 points from his usually dizzy angles, out his defensive work helped great ly to stem the Pitt onslaught and keep State in the. running.' •With two tight defenses refusing to yield, neither team was able to score before five minutes had elapsed. Then Bob Johnson sank a foul to give Pitt a 1-0 edge! Three minutes .later, Prosser went to work, pushing State nto a. 2-1 lead. Pitt tied it up im mediately, and the lead shifted five times before the Lions barged into an 11-10 advantage at halftime. Lead Shifts Often ' The game remained as close as the sea to the shore during the second period, with never more than five points apart. After' Pitt had moved into a 12-11 lead, Prosser sparked the Lions with a field goal. With Bill Stopper and Prosser Sandwiching a half-dozen counters 'between Pitt tal lies, State moved ahead, 19-14. The lead was short-lived, however, as the Panthers charged hack; with five points in a‘row. 1 Jack Reichen bach snapped the tie with a double decker, but Spotovich and Garcia pushed Pitt ahead, 22-21, with two minutes' to go. -. Prosser then notched another field goal to give State a 23- 22 edge, and Stopper increased the lead to 25-22, with a- minute left. Spotovich whittled the lead to'2s-24, and the. Lions wilted, gambling,, away whatever chance they had by failing to freeze the ball. , Prosser took high-scoring honors with 10 points, followed by Stopper, who netted eight.
