mllihens Conquer California 54-53 In Tournament Overtimer St. May Nab 2nd Title COLUMBUS. Ohio (AP) - Just how good is Ohio State's basket ball team? Good enough to win a second straight national championship? The No. 1 rated Buckeyes have romped to five straight victories end most veteran courtside ob servers agreed on one thing: "They've got a heck of a good ball club." After Ohio State demolished a fine California team last March to cop the NCAA title, not many people thought such a near-perfect performance could be im proved upon. Even Coach Fred Taylor voiced some complaints. "We don't have the size or depth we had last year. Physical ly, we can't be as strong," Tay lor commented in a preseason Sizeup of his squad. So what happens? Ohio State runs through five straight oppo nents and even Taylor is ready to admit that this team is as good as last season's. "Our defense has done a fine Job and our offense should do better," says Taylor. "But we'll know more about the team in the next week or so," he continued, adding: .'( "We have to play a good De troit club tonight and then next week in the JUoliday Festival in New York there are teams like St. John's, Seton Hall, Providence and St. Bonaventure." The Obioans are sparked by All-America Jerry Lucas. He gets considerable help from such nota bles as Larry Siegfried, John Havlicek and Mel Nowell. Boiled down, it's tough beating a team that averages 90 points a game, connects on half of its shots and captures SO rebounds a contest.'
