Blair. The Blazers tried the
opposite and enjoyed fantastic
success; more than any other
opponent.
Coach Ed Moffatt Of Blair
may have used a bit of psy-
chology. Early in the season
word leaked out. perhaps in
tentionally, that Moffatt would
put his ace. Tommy Brown. on
Cage when the teams met
February IL.

The game began with Blair
in a zone defense, except. sure
enough. Brown was playing
Cage rather tightly. But when
Ernie moved to the other side
of the court. Brown didn't 60
with him. And they let him
take as many shots as he
wanted.
THE idea was" Wootten says,
ito cut of our other four boys
without drop and let Ernie
go for IS and they'll beat US.
They actually let him have his
Sunday punch and he goes four
for 81 shots!"
Blair won. 57-36, but the sur
prise was that the Blazers tao
tics held" Cage to IL points. 1t
is not. however. a recommended
strategy for future opponents.

Cage scores against the
TOUCHES as we'll as the weaker
teams. In DeMatha's first meet
ing with st. Johns he scored
20. including II of IL from the
foul line. In the last two games
with Gonzaga he got 38 and 80.
Last year in a playoff victory
over st. Johns he made IS,
and then against st. Francis
Prep of Brooklyn in the
knights Of Columbus tourna-
ment, he outscored the great
Tom Stith. 20 to 13.
He's had pneumonia twice in
three years and a chronic sinus
condition. His knee was OPP
Grated on during his sopho-
more year. He's pale and 100
pounds and slightly stopped,
but he gains weight remarkably
fast in the off-season.
Cage should be a healthier
looking prospect when he takes
another trip to Carolina soon.
The Tar Heels like him as is,
anyway.

WI can't match this trio

for fifth place. Hammond's
Bucky Pryor finished as the
