West Virginians. 65-45 in the fi
nals of the Los Angeles Holiday
Tournament
It was the first loss in 12 out
ings for the Mounties, the pride
of West Virginia. But Tuosday
night after a five-day rest, they
bounced back into the win col
umn with a 95-79 win over Fur
man.
Saturday they'll be out to gain
10 , ,t ground on Cincinnati and Cal
ifornia when when they come to
Rec Hall to face John Egli's Na
t:lnv Lions.
Mountie coach Fred Schaus,
who was greeted with talk of dß
semion following the loss to Cal
ifoi quickly squelched the ugly
rumors and attributed the defeat
to an overdose of basketball.
Before playing in the Los An
geles Tourney the Mounties had
copped the Kentucky Invitational
Championship by whipping St.
Louis and Kentucky, two of the
top teams in the nation.
Then they flew to California
to compete in the eight-game
tournament. They had two
toughies with Stanford and
UCLA and by the time they
reached the finals they were
dog-tired, Schaus said.
West Virginia's first loss this
year dropped them into the num
ber three position in both of the
nation's major college polls.
And if past performances are
any indication, they shouldn't
have an easy time getting win
number 13 and a higher ranking
Saturday night.
The Lions have given Schaus
and his Mounties nothing but
trouble in their last two appear
ances here. Both times West Vir
ginia came in ranked number one
in the nation.
They left that way too, after
a few scares, In 1958 the Lions
led throughout the whole game
only to lose the lead in the last
few minutes, Result: WVa. 74,
PSU 71.
Last year, with Mark DuMars
and West hooking up in a real
scoring duel, the Lions took the
Mounties into overtime before
losing, 89-81.
DuMars had 30 in that game
and West had 32. Earlier this year
the Mounties topped the Lions
