Henley's Big Gun
Eagles, Cougars
In Crucial Game
The Rogue League champions,
Henley's Hornets, close out tlie
season Friday night by going to
Medford to battle the dangerous
St. Mary's Crusaders while Lake
view, all hopes shattered for a
second place finu-.h. takes on Sa
cred Heart at Lakeview.
But the big game in the league
which will be watched with much
interes will be the Eagle Point
Ulinois Valley clah at Ill rwis
Valley Friday night. 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. He played only
a short time and hit only five
points against Sacred Heart be
