    Fisticuffs Highlight Fish Loss

The hefty Fish cagers held
their own in a brief fist ex
change, but fell short in the point
department, dropping a 65-61 de
cision to the TU Shorthorns
Tuesday night.
Gregory Gym was the scene
of an unscheduled one-round bout
which climaxed a tension-packed
first half. The Fish performed
well in fist action but hit a score
less dead spot in the second
stanza.
“Our inability to hit in the last
few seconds, plus our sloppy ball
handling, contributed to the loss,”
commented Fish Coach Jim Cul
pepper. “We lost the ball too
many times without getting a
shot.”
The frosh squads played share-
and-share-alike for 15 minutes
after Fish forward Ronnie Peret
swished a 20-foot jumper to begin
scoreboard action. But the Year
lings hit a warm spell with five-
and-one-half minutes remaining
in the first period and center
Bill Brosseau netted two from
the left comer to erect a six-
point lead, 27-21.
After a Fish bucket cut the
advantage to 27-23, Peret, 6-9,
and Brosseau, 6-6, squared off
in the main event after a mad
scramble for a loose ball resulted
in eight bodies hitting the hard
woods. Peace was declared quick
ly and the Fish shaved the TU
lead to knot the score, 27-27.
But Sip guard Larry Smith
wadded through the Fish pond
with two slick layups and a some
zipping passes for a 35-31 in
termission lead.
The effects of first-half com
bat cleared from Yearling sculls
as a three-point lead suddenly
became ten, 48-38, with 14:11 to
play. Then the mail train
switched directions as the Fish
caught fire with guard Curley
Hallman flashing in two field
goals for a 57-54 lead with 7:56
left.
Then the blow torch became an
iceberg for seven minutes and
nineteen seconds as the Fish
failed to scratch the scoreboard.
TU hit nine points for a 63-57
bulge before Fish guard Billy
Bob Barnett and Hallman aced
two charity tosses each for a
63-61 deficit with 36 seconds left.
But the scoreboard stayed silent
Aggiewise and two Shorthorn
freethrows formed the final mar
gin.
Barnett proved tops again in
the basket and on the boards
with 24 points and 18 rebounds.
Culpepper singled out Peret, a
swift big man with 12 points and
