Cape AH-S*»^
Dump Nanooks 50-32
The Northeast Cape All Stars,!
aided by a frigid second half on
the part of the Nanook shooting |
beat the Nome High School squad '
50-32.
The Nanooks attack, spearhead
ed by lanky Steff Andersen, func- '
tioned well in the first half, where
the school kids lagged only by 4
points. In the second half, the GI’s
attack functioned smoothly while
the kids bogged down and scored
only 13 points in the two final j
quarters.
Tapping the Northeast Cape j
scoring were Mullens with 14 and
Eastman with 10. Leading the
Nanooks were Steff Andersen with
11, and Ron Locke with 9. Special
praise was reserved for Cannon
and Locke, both of whom did a
bang-up job on defense, holding
the Cape’s two top scorers down.
The general run of the game
was a case of just too much ex
perience against too many mis
takes. The green Nanooks simply i
rbade too many errors, that the1
boys from St. Lawrence Island
capitalized on to convert into bas
kets.
The next game for the Nanooks
will be to tangle with the high
flying Polar Hornets who are lead
ing the City League. This game
is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 4,
following the game between the
Jaycees and ANB.
