biggest upsets of the season and
showed that the victory of the
soldiers a week ago over the Mo
hawks was anything but a fluke.
The service players won because
they flashed smoother brand of
teamwork than their court enemies
and also were in better condition to
keep step with the dizzy pace in the
latter stages.
