The Honkers had little trouble containing the Card inals earlier in the year, but this year's sports history has shown that a fired-up lone team is capable of just about anything. The Honkers, un defeated going into the final week of league play, were handed their first loss Friday night by second place Dufur. Helix has beaten Dufur this season, and the Cards, in turn, have beaten Helix on two occasions. "Whenever you go out on the floor, nothing's impossible," Coach LaRue commented, "especially in a tournament. If we go out fired up, anything's possible." Howard Huddleston, making double figures with 11. "The seniors played like they really wauled to leave a good impression during their last game," commented Day. "Darrell Bigelow put in an inspired performance at the boards and hustling all over tHe court, and Peck and Marlin plaved their best game together." Peck was credited with seven assists and Marlin six. The Mustangs forced an inordinate number of steals, and shot 37 per cent from the court, sinking 21 of 57 at tempts.

Putting points on the board in addition to Huddleston were Peck, nine; Wood, eight; Holland and Stookey, six each; Bigelow, four; Marlin and Day, two each. Jr. Cards edged by Honkers Ione's junior high basketball season came to an end this week against Arlington on a thrilling, if disappointing note, with both seventh and eighth grade teams losing to the Honkers by one point margins. In seventh grade action, Arlington overcame Ione's halftime lead of 23-12 to pull out a 31-30 victory. Darrin Padberg was the top scorer for lone with nine points, followed by Craig Hams with six, Jim Jepsen with five and Steve Millman and Larry Sullivan with four apiece. The junior Cards connected on only two of eight free throw attempts, which "cost the game right there," Coach Bob Deeter noted. "But it was a good ball game," he said. "We just ran out of time." The eighth grade contest was even more of a heart stopper. With only 11 seconds remaining, lone had time to make two shots, either of .which would likely have sealed a victory. But both attempts failed, resulting in a 37-36 Arlington win. "Once again, Arlington came back and stuck it to us," said Deeter. lone had led Arlington 18-10 at the half. "We just let down a little and didn't play with the same intensity we did in the first half," Deeter said. Donny Taylor picked up 14 points for lone, with Craig Gutierrez contributing six and Denny Starr five. The eighth graders finished the season with a 6-3 record. MM I 1 I I II II II 11 I!
