SPORT

Captain Craig Ruby and his COM
pany of Tiger basket tossers tackled
the second championship banner TO
the Missouri halyards of 1920 last
evening when they defeated Washing
ton in the first of a two game series
41-22.
1t was Missouri's fifteenth straight
victory of the season and cinched the
second Missouri Valley Conference
Championship in the two years that
DR.. w. E. Meanwell has been in charge
of the team. In eight years of Univer-
sity basketball coaching Doctor Mean
well has won five championships, three
of these at Wisconsin University. He
has never finished with a team below
third place. The goal of the Tigers
is now an ever-victorious season for
their coach and to do this they must
win the remaining three games on
the schedule.
The battle at Rothwell Gymnasium
was fierce one. The two teams
realizing that the championship was
at stake. threw every ounce of energy
into the fray, bnt from the time Phil
Scott dropped in the first counter
from under the basket until George
Bond Gagged one from the same place
in the last few seconds of play, there
was no doubt as to the outcome. Wash
ington fought hard and the clever
work of Russell and Hurd and their
teammates made the the game inter-
esting. The only time the Pikers were
able to get within reaching distance
of the Tigers came about ten minutes
after the second half had started, when
an eight point lead was cut to a four
point one and the score stood 22-1S. |
The Tigers did not display their
best brand of basketball. Undoubted-
y the fact that they were fighting
Tor the game upon which hinged their
chances for the title, kept them from
playing in their best form, while the
clever defensive game presented by
Russell and Kraehe of the visitors
'roke up the short pass game to a
extent. When the Tigers
'ealized this, the style of play was
changed somewhat with the result
