Shelton High School's boys'
swimming team sank to its second
BHL loss last Wednesday,
succumbing to a strong North
Thurston team 61-23 in the
Rams' older-style pool.
"it definitely wasn't an
artistic performance on our part,"
said a rather glum Coach Doug
Hanna after the thrashing. "It was
probably the worst showing by a
Climber team in a long time."
Hanna said he wasn't making
excuses, but some of his Climbers
had troubles negotiating the
North Thurston pool, which has
one deep end rather than the two
shallow ends of most of the newer
pooh. "'We had a problem with
our flip turns because of the
difference in depth perception,"
he said, "and that's something we
definitely need to work on."
Chris Jackson suffered a
lacerated heel on one such
misjudged flip turn. "He could
very easily have severed an
Achilles' tendon," said Hanna,
hastening to add that the injury
proved relatively minor.
Jackson and junipr Mike Pavel
set Climber records in the
500-yard freestyle and 200-yard
individual medley, respectively,

Company retained that status in
City League basketball last
weekend despite a torrid offensive
showing by Bob Christensen.
Christensen scored 37 of
Nye's 56 points, but the
Correction Center team pooled its
efforts to take a two-point victory
and send Christensen and
company to their fourth straight
loss.
Meanwhile, league-leading OK
Roofers toppled Arnold and
Smith 59-47 and undefeated
Lumbermen's coasted past
ITT-Rayonier 71-50. OK, at 4-0,
assumes the lead over
Lumbermen's by virtue of its
having played one more game.
In action December 14,
Arnold and Smith squeaked by
the Corrections Center 58-54, OK

and Bayshore Sand and Gravel
thumped ITT 71-54.

LITTLE CLIMBERS WIN CLIFFHANGER
Coming from behind once in regular time and twice in
overtime, the Highclimber B squad snatched a 37-35 victory
from the Port Angeles reserves in one of the mQst exciting
games played in the history of the Shelton gym.
Lefty Leroy Dale was the final of several heroes for the
Little Climbers, popping in a southpaw side-shot to win the
game in the "sudden death" overtime period.
It was a thrill-packed contest most of the way with the
only sizeable margin coming as Shelton built up a 27-21
edge at the end of the third period and moved it to 29-21
early in the fourth period.
Dan Young and Dale accounted for 29 of the 37
Shelton points between them, the former getting 14 and
the latter 15.
