Travelers place second at Hoopa
The Oregon Travelers went against
Santa Clara in their first game of
the27thannual Invitational Hoopa
basketball tournament, March 10
12. "In the first game we had an
iron five,' consisting of Chuck
Fremont, Cyril Jim, Rich Wells.
Sonny (arris and James Scott,
stated coach-player Tony "Big Rat"
Suppah. He went on to say that
everyone had Santa Clara winning
the game before it started.
With good team work, hustle
and tough defense the Travelers
pulled out an upsetting win with a
final score of 108-98. Suppah related
it was a game that gave the crowd
their money's worth.
In the second game they went
against Chico, California. "We
jumped on them in the second and
third quarter, going into the fourth
we had a 20 point lead. Then with a
lack of rebounding and being allowed
one shot on offense we put them
back in the game," stated Suppah.
The Chico team with Art Hernan
dez took control of offense and the
game went down to the wire with
Chico having the ball. In the last 19
seconds of the game the Travelers
called time out to set up a three
two pressing defense, not letting
the guards get the ball inside to
Hernandez, Tucker and Russell.
Then with one second left in the
. , , .... vvwopA.jMr ame a desperate shot was taken

able to tie the game. From that
time on the two teams went basket
for basket for four quarters. The
teams were tied at 14 different
times. With two-and-a-half minutes
left in the fourth quarter and a four
point lead and 32 seconds left, the
odds appeared to be in favor of the
Travelers. With turnovers and a
foul, it was enough to give the
Indians a one-point lead during the
final two seconds. The Indians took
top honors with a final score of
1 1 1-1 10. Suppah said the Travelers
had nothing to be ashamed of in
losing to a team that had the
experience and composuree of the
Indians.
Winning the tournament title
also entitled the Indians to an all
expense trip to Hawaii for the
players and their families.
The Travelers didn't walk away

been fortunate to have another
successful season, thanks to the
support of and faith of their spon
sors. "We couldn't have done it
without them. God bless them all."

us the win we needed to go into the
finals against the Oklahoma Indi
ans for the championship."

third place in the 1987 Nationals, a
tournament which the Oregon Tra-
velers won. This time the Oklahoma "
team was a lot stronger with the
assistance of Steve Daney of Law

in height so they put a full-court
