Sa lem tied the score at 30-30 on Larry Paulus free throw with three minutes and 35 seconds to go, and went ahead 10 seconds later on a free flip by Hazel. Milwaukie never caught up after that.

' The tempo of the game struck a slow note in the early portion of the initial quarter. After four minutes of play, Salem held a 6-5 lead. All of Sa lem's scoring up to that point had been done by Larry Paulus, while all of Milwaukle's points had been scored by Gordon Jl son. From there, Salem scored four consecutive field goals two by Jack Bishop and one each by Bob Hazel and Don Peper to move into a 13-6 lead early in the second stanza.
