Basketball
The 'Bucs" journeyed to Caes-
ar Rodney High School on Tues
day to engage the powerful Rider"
squad. The game was closely con-
tested during the first half as
Caesar Rodney walked off the court
at half-time with a nine point
lead
In the second half, the Riders
began to hit rather consistently
and boosted their lead to 10 points
and the game ended with Caesar
Rodney in front by score of 54-
35.
In the preliminary game, the
JVs lost to Caesar Rodney to
make it a clean sweep for the host
team.
The Lewes Pirates invaded the
local gym on Friday and displayed
red-hot shooting aggregation
that jumped off to a 14-0 lead early
in the ball game and from that
point on were never in danger.
Seven minutes had elapsed in the
first quarter before the Bucs found
the range and connected for bas-
ket.
The Pirates kept up their bar
rage and sported a 33-11 lead at
half-time.
The "Bucs" were having a very
difficult time in connecting
throughout the entire ball game
and the Lewes Pirates went home
victorious by a 56-27 margin.
In the preliminary game, the
"Jr. Bucs" won a very exciting
one-point victory that was unde-
cided right down to the last Sec
ond. This game was very well
played and was thrilling contest
throughout.
The Milford Girls Varsity bas-
ketball team continued its win
ming ways by defeating Caesar
Rodney and Lewes while the JVs
were dropping two games to the
same schools!
The Georgetown and Milforfd
High School basketball teams met
on Tuesday for a return match.
Milford won it's first meeting early
this season. Since their defeat at
the hands of the Bucs, the George
town teams have won five straight
before losing to Laurel.
On Friday, Milford will travel
to Seaford to meet the Blue Jays
of Seaford High. Both schools are
in the basketball doldrums this
year as victories have been rather
hard to come by. This game is
very important to both squads as
a victory would serve as shot in
the arm for the remainder of the
season.
The girls met Georgetown on
Tuesday and will play Seaford on
Friday. The girls are anxious to
add victories over Georgetown and
Seaford to their impressive rec
ord.
