Frants Scores 20
Height was a noticeable ad-,
vantage for Willamette, who.
had long arms to spar against .
the 8-1 or under Wolves. This '
was true on rebounds, giving
Willamette possession at criti
cal. moment. However, in field
goal accuracy, the Bearcats of
Coach John Lewis hit 28 of
52 attempts for .338 percent,
some better than the still-good
average of OCE 22 of 83.
It was an OCE player, ver
satile shooting Bob Frantz, who
led scoring with 20 points
even field goals and six of
even free throws. Willam
ette's Tom Gooding was hook
ing them in from right of the
bucket from 10 to 15 feet away
for 19 points. He and Dick
Hoy and Pet Reed accounted
for 48 of their team's 78, Hoy
getting 13 and Reed 14.
Willamette had a consistent
lead throughout, building it up
to 22 points with 8:33 remain
ing, at which Urn Lewis
lipped in four reserves. OCE
then put on a ball stealing
show which saw numerous
bearcat passes intercepted.
Chuck Pinion, of football fame,
three times swiped the bsll for
baskets within one minute.
Gap Closed to Six
This closed the gap to 72-82
with 3:30 left, then to 75-80
with a half minute to go.
Quartertlm scores were all
in favor of Willamette 20-12,
39-28 and 80-45. The basket
which made It 80 points was
begun in the final five seconds
of the third quarter with a
length-of-the-floor pass to Jer
ry McCalllster, who tor it
away from a defender and
dropped it in as t h e buzzer
buzzed.
A small crowd of about 250
attended.
