' Stolsig Hits 25 in Thriller At Vik Villa BrAL UGBTNES Statesman Sports Editor A perfectly good winning streak Went blooey Tuesday night at the Vik Villa as the resident quint went down before a perfectly astounding Lebanon Warriors team, 52-50. The upset, one of the biggest of the prep cage season in Oregon, was registered when Center Dale Hasenyager, a six foot, three incher. lofted in a field goal from deep in a corner with but five seconds left to play. Coach Harold . Hauk's Salems went into the fray with a victory string of seven in a row. Only Tuesday afternoon had the Salems been named No. 4 in the weekly Associated Press poll for prep quints in the state. Lebanon was not in the ratings. But Coach Bud Page's Warriors, who seem to make it tough on Salem teams every year regard less of the odds, weren't to be denied. They jumped off to a 12-10 first quarter lead and went down at halftime with a 26-26 tie. It was 42-40 for Lebanon in the true thriller-diller at the end of the third chapter. Unabie to catch up after the halftime tie, but never more than two or three points behind, Salem finally knotted the count again at 48-48 when Larry Paulus slammed in a lay-in. But Guard Dean Beck of the red-hot and sharp-eyed Warriors immediately pitched in a long one-hander to again put the visitors in front. Paulus followed this with an other lay-in as the premises went slightly berserk, and was fouled on the play. But he missed the free throw and Lebanon captured the rebound. The Warriors raced down the floor, got the ball over to Hasenyager in the corner and he fired true with the backbreaker for the Salems. Real hero of the Lebanon vic tory wasn't Hasenyager, however. It was instead Johnny Holsig, five feet, 10 inches of whiz-banger in the entire game. He hit for 25 of the Lebanon points with an amaz ing display of shooting, hitting nine field goals in 15 tries and seven free throws in eight attempts. Stol sig's shooting percentage from the field was .600, and from the free throw line it was .875. For that matter the entire Leba non team percentage was on the torrid side. The Warriors had 21 for 51, or .412. Salem had a re spectable 20 for 62, or .323. But there was no keeping up with the deadliness of the fast moving, hard driving Warriors. Paulus was Salem's big gun with 19 points and Jack Bishop had 13. Ten missed free throws hurt the Salems considerably. The Lebanons held their own in the important rebound department of play also, an item that helped bring about Salem's downfall. The loss gives Salem a 10-won, 4-loss record. The Vikings attempt to regain the win column here Fri day night, with Springfield the foe. In Tuesday's prelim Lee Gustaf son's Jayvees copped their tenth straight victory, an easy 54-20 nod over the Lebanons Lebanon JVs (20) MacBride, 7 F Richards, 2 F Siegner, 1 C 58) Tlk JVi 9. Rice 2.
