ECTC Gains Split With
Catamounts By 44-40 Win.
Buchanan's Down Cpt
Jayvees, 41 - 30 In
Preliminary
Cullcwhee. Feb. 10 ? The East- 1
ern Carolina Teachers came thru
with a 44-40 win over the Western
Carolina Catamounts here tonight
to gain a split in their two game
series with Tuck McConnell's boys.
It was ECTC's fourth North State
conference victory in six games.
ECTC came from behind in the
last eight minutes after the Cata
mounts had led throughout the
game and with Thrift leading the
way, managed to finish on the
long end of the score. With nine
minutes remaining, Maemnie of
ECTC tied the game at 34-34 and
Bauer put his mates ahead with a
free throw. Bob Tate retaliated
with a free throw to re-knot the
score but Thrift quickly bagged
two field goafs for an ECTC four
point lead. Barnhorst and Mc
Ginn tied everything up again with
a field goal apiece. B. Boye's free
throw put ECTC ahead to stay.
Thrift was high man for the
evening with 19 points. McGinn
hit 13 for the Cats and by doing
so gained four points on his con
ference leading teammate, Tate.
Tate is out front with 245 points
and McGinn is 16 behind at 229.
The ECTC victory was not the
only Catamount setback of the
evening. In the preliminary game,
Buchanan's Sports of Waynesville
downed the Cat Jayvees 41-30.
Joe Cline with 15 and Harry
Jaynes with 14 led the winner's
attack. Jaynes is a student at
WCTC and ordinarily works from
the pivot spot but tonight he was
used at forward and turned in a
good floor game as well as a good
offensive game.
