Clinton News-Record, 1950-03-30, Page 8AGE EIGHT DCI Juniors Defeat Strathroy 32-24; Final From Tilbur. 52-12 (By RSA) Coach Jack Seaman's CDCI lads captured the W OSSA Junior "B" Boys' basketball championship by walloping Tilbury High School 52-12 in the final match on the H. B. Beal Technical School floor in London Saturday evening. The locals previously had come from behind to trim Strathroy District Collegiate Institute 32-24 in the semi-final match at the same place Saturday afternoon. It was the first time that Clinton District Collegiate Insti- tute ever had won a WOSSA basketball crown, although local representatives had taken a hoc- key title a number of years ago. A year ago, the Clinton team was beaten in the finals by Lon- don DeLaSalle, which should have been rated as an "A" ag- gregation and was this year. Noteworthy, too, was the fact that Exeter District High School won both the Senior Boys' and Girls' titles in Saturday's play- offs, thus giving Huron Second- ary Schools Association a grand slam in the "B" series - for schools with a registration under 350. Starting off rather indifferent- ly in the first game —probably through tension produced by a large floor and larger crowds— the boys gradually improved their brand of basketball. After a miserable showing in the first half of the semi-final with Strathroy, when they were down 16-11, they bounced into the lead in the third quarter and won a hardfought match by 32-24. The evening final saw' the team at its best, with the lads posses- sing all the confidence in the world and swamping the hapless Tilbury kids under a 52-12 aval- anche. One' observer who had seen most of the season's games said that it was their best game.

Stratford previously had' elim- inated Seaforth and Exeter had eliminated Clinton, in the semi- finals. The CLINTON NEWS -RECORD Trophy, emblematic of the champ- ionship, will be preserved to the winning team following the West- ern Ontario Badaninton Associa- tion "B" championship tournam- ent in Stratford this coming weekend. • The .present season is the first that the "B" league hes operated for many years. It is planned to organized for the 1950-51 season, And who could have picked a better time to play it? They out- classed the opposition which had eliminated Brantford St. Basil's in the semi-final. CDCI 82--SDCI 24 The first half of the Stnathroy match was a bit of a nightmare. The Strathroy kids very oblig- ingly produced plenty of fouls but that meant very little to the high-strung Clintonians, who had. nine tries before they managed to score, and then, only produc- ed two out of 11 in the first half. That is rather a poor average! In the second half they split even with two in four, .which was much better. When Clinton got Strathroy on the run in the third quarter, Strathroy was just about as bad, with only three points in 13 attempts!
