Ths same old hard luck Coquille- finiah-in-tournament-play again took place this year at the annual South western Oregon classic when the 1980 edition of C. H. S. basketball teams went down to IS to 14 defeat before the onrush of the fast North Bend combination. Local teams must be Jinxed or badly frightened when play ing in the finals as records will show. In 1*24, “Brick” Leslie’s first years as coach, the Ave was beaten 18 to 8 in a playoff game by North Bend. This encounter was played at Myrtle Point and whs held to break a tie for first place in the league standing. ' The following year C. H. S. won the coun ty championship but in the first tour nament to bo held in this district lost the right to compete at 8alem when Arago nosed out a 12 to 11 victory in the final game. Facing Marshfield in a tournament preliminary encounter, after being runner-up to the bay team in the county race, the 1*28 Coquille aggre gation was eliminated by a 1* to 14 count in the closest game of the meet After that Marshfield took first place easily. The 1*27 quintet, though not having a remarkable league standing, played strong enough ball to reach the finals in that year. But again the name re sult took place and Marshfield downed the red and white by a close score. In 1*27 and 1*28 Coquille did not participate tn the tournament South Henry street on Wednesday ev ening of this week. Punch and The Just-a-mere club enjoyed • no- cookies were served.
