contests last week, losing
53-39 to Central Columbia
and on Friday night going
down to defeat 54-36 to
Wyoming Valley West.
“Our problem is that we
need more aggressive
offense,” said head
basketball coach Rodger
Bearde. “We're getting
some good offense plays
from Joe Kishkill but he’s
the only consistent man in

hitting in the singles
column.

Onzik needs to look for
more shooting. His per-
centage is pretty good but
he’s not selective enough.
Brian Yanchick is playing
more defense and not
shooting.”
In the Knights game
both teams had 37 at-
tempts but both their field
and foul shooting per-
centage was very low.
In the game with Valley
West, ‘Bearde started a
freshman, sophomore,
junior and two seniors. A
young team with no ex-

more than just a team
effort--they play as
though they really care
about one another and
they enjoy playing to-
gether. These girls have a
lot of character.”
“Itook out our starters
and then Old Forge rallied
and I had to put our
starters in,” said Karuza.
“Old Forge is a young
team but our second
string doesn’t have a lot of
experience and I couldn’t
take a chance.”
Kathy Walsh tossed in
23 points in the Old Forge
game, 10 of those points in
the first quarter.
Walsh also led the Lady
Mounts to their 54-46 win
over Bishop O'Reilly on
Tuesday on the O'Reilly
court.
Walsh tossed in‘ 20
points, nine goals from
the field and two from the
foul line. Judy Krispin
dumped in 18 points, eight
goals from the court and
two from the charity
stripe and Kerrie Lehon
hit for six points. Lehon’s
points came at a time
when they were needed to
pull the Dallas girls
ahead.

outscored the Queen-
swomen 16-11 in the third
quarter and 14-12 in the
final period to take the
game.
“We're getting better as
a team every game,’ said
Coach Karuza. “We are
discovering some of our
weaknesses and working
on improving them. We're
starting to shoot better.
One of problems is foul
trouble but we're working
on it. Judy Krispin and
Kim Reese are excellent
on defense. We use the
press a lot. Krispin and
Reese are one part of the
press. Feeney and Walsh
are in the second tier of
the press. Colette Feeney
has been doing a fine job
at point guard. I expect
some great games from
these girls.”
The Lady Mounts were
scheduled to play Carbon-
dale Dec. 7, then remain
idle until next week when
they are in both the Tunk-
hannock and CYC
Tournaments.
In the CYC Tournament
they play Meyers first. In
the Tunkhannock Tourna-
ment ‘they meet Tunk-
hannock first. If they get
past Tunkhannock, they
could meet Bishop
Hannon, another strong
team.

Hudzik dumped in 13 for a
total of 28 points as the
Lady Knights of Lake-

Their defense was the
key to the game for the
Mountaineers as they shot
only 27 percent from the
floor.
“The boys shut down
Popson in the first quarter
with a combination de-
fense. He went scoreless
in the period. The key to
that was Tim Guzek who
picked up four consecu-
tive fouls right after the
quarter ended. He had to
sit out which hurt us,”
said Dallas Coach Clint
Brobst.
Dallas led 16-7 in the
first quarter but O’Reilly

by halftime.

seen in a while. It was a
moral victory, if there is
such a thing, to play such
fine team like O'Reilly.”
Popson scored 12 of his
21 points in the second
quarter after Guzek was
out of the game and nine

game around.
