seconds of the final quarter built
up the steam and it was point-for-

Blazers never quite getting even.
They kept within one to five
points throughout the period but
never could come up with the go-
ahead goal, primarily because
~.ither Ken Muirhead or Bill Mops
managed to match whatever the
Blazers accomplished.
CHRIS CLOSE, who led Blazer
scoring with ten markers, put
Shelton at 37-36 with 51 seconds
"eft by converting two foul shots
but the Blazersnever got another
shot, even though the Bulldogs
missed two of three foul shots aft-
er that.
Washington also won the 8th
grade game, 43-21, but the Blaz-
ers captured an overtime thriller,
