TAILORS One of Best Games Against Mounties'—G ross "We played one of our best games against the Mountaineers,” Coach Elmer Gross commented yesterday. “The boys had plenty of hustle and spirit—for three quarters, but in the final period they began to tire!” And that was the whole picture of Wednesday night’s loss— the result of an exhaustive schedule of five games in eight days that finally caught up with the Lion courtmen and wrecked their chance. Final score was 82-72. ’• The disastrous schedule, which saw two losses in five games, started last Wednesday against Syracuse and included Carnegie Tech, Friday; Pitt, Saturday; * Gettysburg, Monday; and West ’Vir ginia on Wednesday. Three of these games were on the tough read. After keeping even with a taller West Virginia quintet for two quarters (half time score read W. Va. 33-32) and even pulling ahead in the third, the Lions couldn’t keep up the furious pace and scored only 19 points in the final while their opponents were hitting 31 tallies. Also a factor that figured heavily in the final tabulation was the, free throw situation. Although the Lions had a respectable average of 64.5 % ‘at the foul line, (even better than W. Va. with ft), they only had 31 attempts and made 20. Meanwhile, the Mountaineers had 48 free throw chances and they converted on 30 of these!
