,turday night we journeyed to
Cleveland East for our third

it was. Those who missed this
game really missed thriller! We
won tough one by the score OF
So to 40. Monaco led at half-time
by II points, but East came back
strong after the rest period. From
that point on it was anybodys
ball game. In the last few minutes
Monaco dropped in three quick
baskets and two foul conversions
and was able to held the lead till
the game ended.
That meal we had at the club
was really good. They gave us so
much to eat that it seemed more
like a banquet. Thanks a lot,
cooks
We also had our choice of two
dance floors, but we made use of
both of them Thanks East, for
the swell time I'VE had.

shooting and blackboard work OF

shots. Kuzara, almost as deadly
from outside. picked up 10 points.
