Here they play the McCurdy team. Boys win, girls tie for first Exeter teams do well in six -school basketball event EXETER - The basketball teams of Exeter Public Schools came out on top in inter -school competition Friday. The boys' team won its tournament out- right, and the girls' team tied with their rivals from Stephen Central. Gayle Beucrmann of Zurich Public School who organized the girls' tournament in Exeter said she was a little surprised at the fi- nal results of the six -team, 15 - game competition. First, second, and third places all resulted in ties. "Believe it or not everyone was really close," said Beuermann, explaining that Exeter and Ste- phen both came out with 12 points each in the tournament to tie for first. McCurdy Public School and Zurich tied for second with 10 points each, and Hensall and Us - borne tied for third with eight points each. "Nobody sort of marched through the tournament," said Beuermann, adding that eight out of the 15 games resulted in tic scores. "Isn't that amazing," said Beuermann, who observed the "quality of play was great, fabu- lous. For a lot of these girls it was the first time they had played in tournament." Players on the girls teams ranged from grades five to eight, depending on where the school's basketball talent lay, said Beuermann. In the boys tournament played at McCurdy, orga7izer Don O'Rourke said the compe- tition was not quite so evenly matched. The Exeter team stormed through their schedule, winning every game they played. However, the Stephen Cen- tral team also did well, winning tour out of five games, losing only to Exeter. The McCurdy, Zurich an Osborne teams all managed two wins and three losses apiece, white Hensall had a lit- tle trouble getting ahead on the scoreboard, resulting in a record of 0-5. "I think it went very well," said O'Rourke, who noted that Exeter's scores seemed lopsid- ed against their competition, other teams had good games. "Stephen had some big scores against some other teams as well," said O'Rourke. The organizers of both the girls and boys tournaments had nothing but praise for the offi- ciating for the annual competi- tion. Refereeing the courts this year was a team of volunteer students from South Huron Dis- trict High School. "I thought they did a super job with the boys," said O'Rourke. The Exeter boys team won every game they played, in cluding this one against McCurdy Public School.
