Roadking Quint At Eagle Point On February 11 Eagle Point Unveiling, perhaps his greatest basket ball team in the past 26 sea sons, the Harlem Roadkings, Bobby Grund's mirth-provoking zany basketeers tangle with the Big Y Market quin tet at the Eagle Point high gym on Feb. 11 at 8 p.m. Winning games are a habit with the Roadkings and last season they hung up a record of 149 wins with but 7 losses and in that span ran up 58 straight victories before a loss. But turning the game into a circus of laughs, magic tricks with the ball and uncanny shooting is the trademark of the team. And speaking of comedy. the hilarious Bob Golloway of the Roadkings, will display his court jesters that keep the fans in an uproar throughout the game. Golloway's crazy antics along with his superb basket shooting marks him as one of the outstanding profes sional players in the country today. New Dribbler The Roadkings have also come up with a new, sensa tional "dribbler" in Sonny Mitchell of Louisville, Ky. Mitchell can make the ball do everything but talk and think as he goes through his drib bling stunts. Besides his drib bling chores, Mitchell was the high point getter for the Kings last season. The "rookie"- of the year for the Roadkings was Ulysses Grant, 6-4 center also from Louisville, and just out of high school. A fine rebounder, he picked up the clever rou tine of clowning his first season. Big Y won the Medford In dependent Basketball league crown. Collazo Picked pver Joe Lopes Syracuse, N.Y. (W Sub stitute Damaso Collazo of Ha vana, Cuba, was a surprising 7-5 favorite today to beat lightweight contender Joey Lopes of Sacramento, Calif In tonight's nationally-tele vised 10-round bout at Syra cuse War Memorial audito rium. Collazo got the nod from the oddsmakers for the bout because of his sharp punch ing and despite Lopes' sixth ranking in the lightweight class. . Collazo, 29. will be filling the shoes of fifth-ranked con tender Paolo Rosi who bowed out Wednesday because of an injured right heel. Observers at Madison Square garden, where the Cu ban has built a reputation for an unorthodox style, says Lopes may be in for a rough night. The unranked Cuban has abandoned the bob and weave tactics for an old-fash ioned but effective upright stance.
