CTAA teams have competed In these two national post sea son tournaments for some time. The NAIA is the older of the two tournaments, and was )x>rn out of a desire to give fmcU scheols a chance to taRe part in a national basketball tourna- rae«t after their regular seasons had ended. Winston-fialem was the first CIAA team to enter in the NAIA tournament. Th« NAIA Is divid ed Into regional districts, and Winston-^lem will represent 2fl, which embraces the CIAA. The Rams go directly to Kansas City where 32 of the natiofi’s best small teams will be gathered for the tournament. They were enabled to by-pas,s re- gibnal play-otts because of their record In last year’s tourna ment. The Rams reached the quarter finals last year. *niis. will mark the MKond trip for A. and T.’s team to the NCAA Small College tourna ment in 1959.

The Aggies had not beat en the Rams in three previous gomes this season. Hank Mar.shall, who wound up with 15 points, was the big gun in the first half attack which all but swept the Teach ers off the coliseum floor. He was deadly from the corners with his patented, one handed jump shot. But he had plently help from a host of other Aggies, all of whom had “hot” hands Satur day. All of the other starters scored in the double figures, in cluding Hugh Evans, l7, War ren Davis, 12, Jerry Powell, 11, and James Jackson, 10. - Richard Glover and Louis Parker led the Rams -with 2# I each. Willie Curry and all-CIAA selection George Foree were big disappointments for coach Gaines’ Rams. Foree was limit- but scored well enough in the second half to tally 14 points. A. and T.’s strong armed freshman center Warren Davis, of Halifaq, Va. dominated both backboards. He single-handedly prevented the Rams from fol- lowing-up most of their shots in the first half. Virginia State captured third place in the tournament by de feating Maryland 79-71 in a close consolation contest. ed to only one field goal, an3 wound up the evening with three points.
