on improved passing and more

trying to pound our way. To
do so we have to spread the de-
lenses. and then hope we can

The Tr,State Conference is composed of junior

by stopping Baltimore and giving Montgomery the

McAllister is the teams high scorer averaging

Roger Richards is MICS top rebounder,

Baltimore and MIC are the two largest schools

There are only four strong teams in the ~

Baltimore and MIC lead the parade. Eight teams
participate in the tournament.
If MIC wins the TrrState title, the Knights
