Bear Cagers Take On State’s Top Rated
Anchorage Thunderbirds This Week
The Kodiak Bears tackle the top
rated high school team in the state,
Friday when the East Anchorage
Thunderbirds appear here in a
two game series.
The Thunderbirds recently won
the Christmas tournament at Ju
neau taking Alaska’s State Cham
pions, the Ketchikan quint, en
route.
Coach Terry McMullen’s Bruins
bounced back last weekend to
trounce the Alumni 53-40 after
dropping a pair to Kenai and an
other brace of contests to Palmer
by scores of 44-40 and 45-44 in
overtime.
Against Palmer, the Kodiak team
played lackadaisical ball with
many bad passes and inability to
work through Palmer’s zone de
SARGENT TO START
fense. Improvement was shown in
the second tilt although Kodiak
blew an 8-point lead. Kozak was
high scorer in the first contest
with 11 and Mize in the second
with 13.
The Bears looked like a different*
club against the Alumni, hitting 50
per cent from the floor and piled
up a 30-13 halftime lead. Stan Sar
gent and Tom McCormick split
scoring honors, each getting 15.
TALL TIMBER
The visiting Thunderbirds have
the tallest front line in the state
in John Klinbeil, 6-4, Scott Smith,
6-4 and Ramon Barnett 6-4. Pair
ing with them are Terry Gose 5-8
and Floyd Ladigarnel, an even six
foot, to give them speed.
Kodiak’s starting lineup will in
clude Sargent at center, Mize and
Kozak at forward posts and Tom
McCormick and Rick Lowry at
guards—this starting lineup av
erages 6-1 and is capable of battling
East Anchorage all the way.
The Jayvees will play two pre
liminary games on each night
starting at 6:30.
