Those two teams are battling for second place and a playoff spot in tlie tournament with the Hornets. Eagle Point is second with a 9-3 record and Illinois Valley is third with a 7-4 record. A victory by Illinois would give the Cougars an 8-4 record with a game re maining in which to tie Uie Eagles and a playoff would be in order to decide the playoff spot. But the Eagles are "in" if they win for the season. They face a St. Mary's team which has come on with a rush in the late stages of the season and they were the cues which killed Lakevif w's hopes last weekend with a 73-69 win. The Crusaders are dangerous and tlie Hornets will have to play a lop game to remain undefeated. They have a 13-0 league record and a 19-0 season mark. The Hornels and the league con tinue to be led by Henley's big 0-7 Kent Gooding. Gooding paces all scorers in tlie league with 231 points in 12 of the 1 games for a fine 23.4 average, although it dropped from a 25.0 average from last week.
