High School Sports By BOB CARTON Midgets Need One For Perfect Season The Bayview midget basketball team is one small win away from completing the season with a perfectly unscathed win-loss record. In all fairness to the team I feel that I should mention that their final game of the season will not be all that easy, as they will be facing a very tough opponent in Woodbridge. _ Although Bayview did win the last outing against this team rather handily, Woodbridge did give them a lot of trouble in the first half. Bayview’s record now stands at 13-0, as they quite easily rolled to two more wins in as many tries last week. On Friday night they dominated Markham, as they did not have a tremendous amount of trouble beating this team. Earlier in the week they downed last place Don Head by a Score of 54-23. Bayview’s second stringers played approxim- ately 60 percent of this game, as Coach Malcolm decided upon resting most of his first line players for a good portion of the game. Bayview got off to a fast start They outscored Don Head 11-3, before replacements were made near the end of the first quarter. Closing in on half time Don Head was not all that far behind, as they trailed by only nine points, 20-11. But, due to a big spurt by the Bayview first stringers right at the end, Don Head found them- selves down by 15 points at the half by a score of 29-14. ' The second half displayed pretty well the same type of play as was evident in the preceding half, with Bayview shuffling players in and out, ,and Don Head not mounting Very much of an offense. The Bayview scoring was well distributed among first and second stringers in this game, but Craig Davies emerged as the leader with 10 points. * IR 1' i * JUNIOR FINISH SEASON UNDEFEATED While Bayview’s midget team have a very good chance of finishing the season undefeated, the junior team has already accomplished such a feat. Last week they won their final game of the season over Markham, to complete a perfect record of 10 wins and no losses. Several announcements that were aired during the week to the effect that Bayview students should show some school spirit by'coming out and support- ing their basketball teams seem to have definitely taken their toll. The single largest mass of Bayview supporters of the year were present at this game. Of course, the fact that Bayview defeated Mark- ham by a score Of 63-40 should have some effect as to whether or not these fans will return in the future. One interesting note in this game, was that the score after the first quarter was an amazingly low 6-5 in favor of Bayview. Earlier in the week though, the juniors played a rousing home game against Thornlea, with the result being 88-52 in Bayview’s favor. Offense was most definitely at a premium in the first quarter, with both teams displaying fast breaks. Thornlea’s shooting percentage from the floor in this quarter was almost unimaginable, as they hit on almost all their shots. It was a lucky thing for them that they did, as Bayview controlled the play throughout. Bayview with their excellent passing were afforded the opportunity for many more shots. Bayview’s Dave Robbins sank a foul shot with 18 seconds remaining in the quarter to give Bayview an 18-17 lead. The second quarter proved that Thornlea was indeed human, as their shooting percentage fell right off. This, added to the fact that Bayview scored 10 straight points near the end of the quarter, dropped Thornlea behind 41-31 at the half. The third quarter proved to be no contest, as Bayview really solidified their lead by outscoring Thornlea 24-8. Without wanting to knock Thorn- lea, I feel that, if Bayview’s first string players had remained in the game for the final few minutes of the fourth quarter, they could have possibly reached the 100 point plateau. All in all, it was a very interesting game, par- ticularly the first quarter, which I personally believe to be the most exciting quarter of basketball I have witnessed this season. t II fl '1 * SENIORS SPLIT The Bayview senior basketball team last week split games with Thornlea and Markham, which brings their season’s record up to 4-7. On Friday night they won a very tight game over Markham by the score of 55-54. On the previous Tuesday they were thoroughly trounced by Thornlea 95-61. The first quarter saw Bayview hold a large advantage in territorial play. but Thornlea’s superior shooting gave them the lead 16-14 at the end of the quarter. At one point Bay- view was down by nine points, but fought back to close the gap to two. Bayview started off well in the second quarter, as they were all tied up at 18 points apiece. But, Thornlea then scored six points in a row. Bayview was never able to catch up throughout the remainder of the game. At the half Bayview trailed 38â€"28. The third quarter saw Bayview’s offense really come alive, as they scored 18 points. Unfortunately. Thornlea’s offense was even better, as they managed to put 26 points on the scoreboard. Heading into the fourth quarter, Bayview trailed 64-46. But even in this Thornlea refused to show any mercy, as they continued to pile up the points. To open the quarter Thornlea outscored Bayview 20-2, before their coach finally got softhearted and decided the lead was safe enough to put in most of his second liners. With the second stringers on, Bayview played even ball with Thornlea for the remainder of the quarter. If Thornlea had left their first stringers on for the remainder of the game, I am sure that they would. without a doubt, have reached at least 100 points plus. Just how far over they would have gone, I would not hazard a guess. but they most definitely would have reached the 100 plateau. hi the 4th quarter Thornlea scored a miraculous 31 points. Top scorers for Bayview were Henry Kattenberg with 27 and Bob Crowther with 10. SI i< ‘3 it >3: PLAYOFFS SOON With the regular season schedule for all of the boys’ basketball leagues ending this week, the play- offs will be getting underway very shortly. large crowd that was present at last Friday’s junior game is hopefully a sign of better things to come. So come on out and physically. as well as as vocally, support your teams in the playoffs. I THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, March 2, 1972 Bond Steel Takes First Game In Ont.

You get off to a bad start and you‘re zaps-ville before you get untangled. Coach Brimblecombe’s major worry has to be on defence where he’s hurting physically. Mid-sea- son acquisition Kevin Healey will be back in the line- up after being hurt but only time will tell how effec- tive he’ll be. Also nursing injuries of various sorts are Paul Terry and Neil Patterson. One big thing he has had going for him all season is the all-out desire exhibited by all of his players. ience in the persons of Rice, Craig Terry, Stokes, and Barnett; and rookies like Alex Pirus, Colp, Paul Terry and Bill Stephenson.
