The one element of the Dallas
High boys’ basketball team that
allowed the Mountaineers to
register a 67-51 home victory
over Crestwood Tuesday night
in their Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence opener also kept the
Comets in the game for nearly
three quarters.
“We were giving them too
many opportunities,’”’ Dallas
coach Clarence Ozgo said. “We
were giving them two and three
shots at the basket. We were not
rebounding and we were not
playing good defense.”
But that all changed in the
last quarter and a half, and,
even though Crestwood did
make a run at Dallas and even-
tually cut the margin to 51-45,
the Mounts went back to their
strength to register the win.
“We went back to getting the
ball down low and we started to
hit the boards better in the
fourth quarter,” Ozgo stated.
“Going into the season we felt
our strong point was our size
and inside game and that’s what
pulled us through.
“We got 36 points from Shal-
ata (Tom) and Luksic (Mike)
between them. Shalata had 17
and Luksic had 19.”
But they weren’t the only two
players who played key roles in
the win. John Mokychic also
tossed in 17 points to add
another dimension to Dallas’
game.
‘He scored 18 points in our
last game and he was hitting
from the outside again tonight,”
0zgo said. ‘“‘He has been getting
more into the offense and as a
result we have been playing
better against zone defenses.
And now we are starting to run
the fast-break a little more
too.”

over the point guard spot for

Lake-Lehman wrestling coach
Ed Ladamus felt certain his
Black Knights could defeat West
Scranton wrestlers last Wednes-
day, but he was exceptionally
pleased with the fine showing in
their 48-16 win over the Lacka-
wanna team.
Both teams lost a lot of upper-
classmen through graduation
and have a lot of boys wrestling
varsity for the first time. Lada-
mus said his kids did a lot
better than he thought they
would.
“We didn’t have our bestline
up in the varsity meet and we
had nine JV bouts. We won all
but three bouts for both meets,”
said Ladamus.
down with a broken cheekbone
recently and who will probably
be lost for the season, also did a
god job both offensively and
defensively.
‘““‘He came up with a few steals
and ran the offense pretty
well,” Ozgo said. ‘He did a
good job for making only his
second start.
The Comets didn’t help their
own cause any, either, when
they lost Brian Uram on fouls
and Chris Spaide to a leg injury.
Spaide eventually had to be
taken off the court by stretcher.
“They played well and they
never quit,”’Ozgo said of Crest-
wood. ‘‘Losing Spaide hurt them
somewhat. He only scored six
points but he was doing a good
job defensively. They lost Uram
too and he was playing well.”
Dallas will now take on two
more conference foes in Meyers
and Seton Catholic this week
before hosting the Dallas Unico
Tournament on Dec. 26 and 27.
showing
Tony Monaco, wrestling var-
sity. for the first time, gave the
Knights six points on a technical
at 105, and 119-1b. Dave Guzen-
ski pinned Jeff Fox in 5:50.
Terry Smith pinned Kevin Don-
avan at 126, in 1:49, 145-1b. Chris
Frederick added a technical
over Steve Kropfavich.
In order to be successful in
Wyoming Valley Conference
wrestling competition this
season, The Dallas Mountai-
neers are going to have to come
through with a total team effort.
And that’s exactly what they
got in a pair of nail-biting exhi-
bition wins in Wednesday
night’s tri-meet with Wyalusing
and Montrose. The Mounts
nosed out host Wyalusing, 32-31,
on heavyweight Tom Schacht’s
pin and also edged past the
Meteors, 34-30, to complete the
sweept. Both squads are consid-
ered to be fairly good and com-
petitive.
It was a total team effort.
That’s the best way to describe
both meets,”” Dallas coach
Larry Schuler said. ‘‘There
wasn’t any one individual you
could single out because there
were a number of key situa-
tions.”
In its one-point victory over
Wyalusing, obviously one of
those key matches was the
heavyweight bout between
Schacht and Billy Smith.
Wyalusing held a 31-26 edge
going into the final weight class,
and Dallas needed a pin to post
the win. Thirty-one seconds
later, Schacht gave the Moun-
taineers what they needed.
“Naturally you can look at
that match and see it was very
important,” Schuler expalined.
“We won the meet in that last
bout. But it never would have
come down to that if, for exam-
ple, Keith Graham didn’t come
up with a tie at 126.

“He got down quickly 5-0 on a
technical move early in the
match,”’” Schuler continued.
“But he came back and got the
tie. That turned out to be a big
match.”
Graham has been a pleasant
surprise for the Mounts so far
this year and is now 2-0-1 on the
year. So has Ron Post, who is
undefeated at 3-0.
