Bearcats Bounce CWCE
81-73 on Deadeye Shots
By PAUL HAIVEY, II
Willamette evened the series
with Central Washington College
of Education Saturday night as
the Bearcats bounced Wildcats
8-73. Friday night CWCE edged
W illamette 53-51 but it was a dif
ferent story Saturday with Wil
lamette hitting the basket for
almost a 50 average.
CWCE took an early 4-0 lead
on a field goal by Don Myer and
two free throws by Bob Logue
but Tom Gooding sank three
straight field goals to put the
Bearcats out front 6-4 with five
minutes gone in the game. After
that Willamette was never behind
but the score was tied twice later
in the first period.
11-13 in First Period
With eight minutes gone Don
Heacox put in a free throw to tie
up the game at eleven-all 4mt
then Dick Hoy dropped in a set
shot to give Willamette a 15-13
lead. Again Heacox tied up the
game but five points in less than
a minute by Jerry McCalluter
gave the Bearcats a 18-13 first
quarter lead.
The Bearcats, with Freshman
Coach Jerry Frel directing them
in place of John Lewis, sick with i ed in a Jump-shot Dava Gray
me im, spread their lead to 13 1 sank two tree tnrows to give wu
points in the second quarter with I lametta a 76-70 lead but Lyall hit
Duane Shield, Pete Reed, and I a push shot to narrow the lead
Hoy leading the Bearcats. Reed
had seven points. Shield bad six,
and Hoy had five to lead the
Bearcats to a 21 point quarter.
The ha If time score wss 39-26.
Willamette continued to bold a
commanding lead in the third
quarter and the Wildcats were
behind by 11 at the end of the
period. Don Lyall kept the CWCE
team In the game with eight
points while Gene Keller had
five. The three quarter count was
5645.
Leo Nicholson's Central squsd
played on fairly even terms with
Willamette in the first part of the
final period but they began to
surge with seevral minutes left in
the game.
Margin Trimmed Down
Keller's two free shots cut the
Bearcat lead to 69-62 and Willam
ette's lead was becoming slimmer.
Loyall made it 69-62 and the two
clubs exchanged baskets to put
the score at 71-64.
Moments later the Bearcats had
a slim 74-70 lead as Heacox pump-
once again to four points.
That was all the closer CWCE
got as Gray made a charity toss,
Hoy made two free throws, and
Shield sank a field goal to sew up
the game. The Wildcats ended the
game with a free shot by Hea
cox. Hoy led the Bearcats in scoring
with four field goals and nine
free throws for 17 points. McCal
lislr r had 15, Shield came in with
14, Reed had an even dozen, and
Gooding rounded out the starter
with 11. For the losers Lyall had
17, Heacox 16, and Keller bad 14.
