it was going to be anybody's game,

Imperial Tigers last night 81 to %
on the losers court.
The game started out with a
gentle roar with not much scoring
in the first quarter, but then the

with 80 to 16 lead.

the Tigers to score number OF
times, prov1l to be almost an
equal for Imperial's first team.
