Spilyay Tymoo SPORTS *• ' < - Roadrunners second at Nationals The Northwest Roadrunners of Simnasho, Oregon, were the runner-up at the first annual 40 year old and over national basketball tournam ent held over the weekend of April 4-6, 1984 in Ft. Hall, Idaho. The roster consisted of Louie Belgard, Mike Wertin, Jerom e Main, Uren Leonard, Ricky M inthorn, Jim Macy, and m an ag er F ra n k lin “ C h in ” Suppah. The long trip had its effects on the team as it showed in the first game as the lead changed several times. It was not until the final quarter when the guys got their act together to hold off A rizona’s rally and post a 77-70 win. M inthorn led all scorers with 25 points, others contributing to the scoring were Jim Macy 19, Wertin 16, Belgard 10, Leonard 4, Main 2. It was Lugo and Sugar who led the Arizona attack each scoring 21 points apiece, Megerett 13, Biakeddy 11, White 2, and Track 2. T he second gam e was perhaps tougher than the first game with Nez Perce-Umatilla of Pendleton, because of previous meetings with this team. It was an all around i performance from the whole team of solid ball playing, sportsmanship and a good bench that made the difference to give them a 78-66 win to put them in for the championship game. Leading scorer for Simnasho was W ertin with 36, Macy 21, M inthron 8, Belgard 6, Main 5, Chin 2. For Pendleton, Webb scored 29, S e th 2 6 , C o w a p o o 6, McCormack 4, Tias 1. In the championship game with Ft. Hall, the Roadrunners were out manned in height as well as depth on the bench but with good team effort they made a good game out of it going down in defeat by the score 74-53. The game was a lot closer than the final score indicated. The whole team made a good showing for this being the first tournam ent for the older group. Making the all star list from the Simnasho Roadrunners were Jim Macy and Mike Wertin. The final standings of the tourney was: 1st Ft. Hall, I d a h o ; 2 n d .
