Crater Series
The Ashland Grizzlies romp
ed to an easy 57-41 victory
over the Crater Comets on Fri
day, Feb. 7. The Grizzlies ran
up a quick 6-0 lead and from
then on were never in trouble.
Behind the hard driving of the
guard, Al Hartwell, and the
rebounding of Bob Johnson
and Jack Tobiasson, the Griz
zlies worked to a 29-20 half
time lead. After the half the
Grizzlies immediately began
building up their lead, which
by the end of the game was
16 points. Hartwell was high
man for the Grizzlies and the
evening with 16 points. Wayne
Allen and Loyal Higinbotham
each got 11 for the losers.
On Saturday night the Griz
zlies ran into a fired up Cra
ter squad and lost 42-40. This
game started out much the
same as Friday's game with
the Grizzlies running up an
8-1 lead in the opening min
utes only to drop 4 points be
hind at the half 27-24. After
the intermission, the Grizzlies
came .out and held Crater
scoreless for 5 minutes and in
the meantime rolled up a 4
point lead. Due to some costly
fouls and bad passes the Griz
zlies lost 42-40. Bill Maurer
led the Grizzlies attack with
13 points.
