TOURNAMENT TIME
MOST IMPORTANT
The second half of the sea- p
son will get more attention |
from the players and the |
coaches because they know the j
tournament is involved in '
'his portion In the tourna-1
men's, teams are aware of the :
fact that a loss, means no to- ]
morrow. A win over a team
■vhich has won two regular'
season games in the tourna- j
ment will mean more to a team
■': an anything else.
You can bet. the front run
ners here in our city are not
only trying to maintain a good
win-loss worksheet for the;
regular season but the cagers .
are aiming for the "second ;
half" of the season which is '
the tournament.
