Tryon High School Downs
Green Creek 49 to 25 to
Win County Tournament
The Tryon high school basket
-ball boys’ team weakened by injur
and playing without services
two star men, McFarland and
Taylor, surprised everyone by
their decisive 49 to 25 victory
over Green Creek high school on
Saturday night in the finals of
the Polk County Tournament. The
Tryon squad due to an epidemic
of mumps had only seven men left
to carry on the game. Green,
Jackson, Vining, Melton and Beat
son, making up the Tryon team,
gave a brilliant exhibition of team
work with excellent floor work
and goal shooting. Using a fast
break which Green Creek seemed
unable to stop, the winners took
the lead and were never headed
having an eight point advantage
at the end of the first quarter
and gradually building it up.
Green and Jackson led in the
goring with 17 points each,
■■ning, who seemed unhindered
Tty his sprained ankle, took care
of the floor work with Beatson.
Melton using an outside screen to
rack up ten points seemed to play
the entire floor. The losers pre
sented a team that fought to the
final whistle with Skipper and
R. Fagan being their best players.
Team line-ups:
Tryon (49): Green 17; Jack
son 17; Vining 5; Melton 10;
Beatson 0.
Green Creek (25): H. Feagan,
7; Skipper 6; White 1; Fagan,
