Salesianum Catholic High School
basketball team, strongest contend
or for the Catholic High Schools
Cage League championship, and at
present leading in the race for the
title, finished the league schedule by
taking the Villa Nova Prep School
five into camp in a well-played and
bitterly contested game at Villa
Nova, last night. The final score was
80 to 90.
At no time during the forty min
utes Of play did tbs probable 1928
champions have an overwhelming
lead. Although they were the mas
tiers of the Main Liners, they were
unable to go far enough ahead to
assure themselves of victory and
call the regular team of the DOR. In
fact, throughout, though, the play
was fast and furious few fouls We're
called and but one substitution was
made.
Salesianum guarded their rivals
very closely. They kept the Villa
Nova team from finding the net ex-
cept on very rare occasions, and at
the same time, managed to work
the ball up the floor and tally them
selves. The winning team hit the
strings for a total of twelve field
goals. almist twice as many as the
home five was able TO count. The
difference in field goal shooting
marked the difference in the final
score. as both were equal from the
foul line.
Salesianum went into the lead
shortly after the start of hostilities
and remained there for practically
the balance of the game, although
Villa Nova threatened many times.
At half time the Sallies had but a
three-polnt advantage. the score be-
tween the periods reading II to 9.
In the final twenty minutes of play,
the leaders went further ahead,
through their advance ability to
find the net from the floor and their
increased efforts 20 keep Villa Nova's
score low.
Salesianum used the guards up
play with winning results. Almost
half of their two-pointers were made
through their back court players
making the trip up the floor. Ker-
rigan was the main factor in Salesi-
anums guard scoring, netting the
ball on four occasions. Kerrigan
was high count, his nearest team
mate, Gillespie, getting three field
goals. The others were divided be-
tween Lowell, with two, Cullinane
with two, and Fahey one.
Farron made one less than half Of
Villa Novas goals from the floor
getting three. Farron, also handling
the foul tries. was successful on 6
out of II chances. Gillespie. with
the same number of shots, made the
same number.
Salesianum now has nine victories
and one defeat for the schedule of
league games. st. Joe Prep, with
eight and one, and one game to play.
must win in order to tie. Should
they lose, the Wilmington team will
win the championship. but in case
of tie, a play off will be necessary.
