Huron -Perth playoffs continued as SH played -in Mitchell yesterday afternoon in the semi-finals. The seniors completed their regular season with a league record of eight wins and two losses for third place. The last league game was an easy 71-56 victory over Norwell, Wednesday. The P.anthers had difficulty running in Palmerston's Snail gym- nasium but four players scored over 10 points each. John McAllister led with 19 points. John Mol was good for 17 points. Tony Wales had a superb game; adding twelve points. Eleven points were contributed by Steve Riddell. South Huron's six point loss to Goderich last week put the Panthers out of a three way tie for first which would have given them a bye into the semi-finals. Meeting Clinton in the quarter -finals was a mere obstacle as South Huron strives for a Huron -Perth championship, which has been unattainable in recent Pi.nther history. In regular season play SH had defeated Clinton 55-39. Although the Redmen led in the first quarter 12-6, Exeter's defense strengthened to sup- port a lead they, never relinguished. - -The unexperienced pressure of being in a playoff situation told on the often scrappy Clinton team.

Yesterday's semi-finals matched up Mitchell against South Huron and Stratford Northwestern against Seaforth. Seaforth ousted Goderich for this final semi spot. Both Mitchell and Nor- thwestern had byes to the semis: SH coach Terry O:Rourke said his team "will have to play better against Mitchell than we did today." (against. Clinton) Very early this season Mitchell defeated South Huron 56-37 in theirTirst league game. However since then Exeter won the cham- pionship at the Mitchell tour- nament and have defeated Stratford Northwestern who won over Mitchell by 15 points in more recent league action. The winner of yesterday's game will advance to the best two out of three final, pro- bably against Stratford Nor- ) thwestern. The finals start tomorrow and continue next Monday and Thursday, alter- nating between schools for home court advantage. For the first time in many years, . since Glenn Mickle coached a WOSSA champion- ship team in the 1950's, a South Huron boys basketball team has qualified •for the Western Ontario competition. The Huron -Perth conference receives three entries this year as Goderich is hosting the March 11 and 12 tournament. Because of their smaller populations Seaforth and Mit- chell are 'A' schools and qualify for the WOSSA 'A' tournament. . This leaves Stratford Northwestern, South Huron and either Goderich or Central Huron as Huron -Perth's other entrants. rear IT'S GOING IN — Bruce Berg (20) scores two points for South Huron in a H.P. senior basketball game against Central -Huron.
