DENNISON - The Midvale Blue Devils (8-0) opened up the tournament at Dennison this morning with an easy 38-19 win in their semi-final fracas with Senecaville. The Devils had little trouble with the conquerors of Gnadenhutten and led the entire route.
The 1st quarter yielded the winners a 7-3 lead which was increased to 10-3 at halftime, while they held their opponents scoreless. Midvale coasted through the last half, leading 29-12 at the 3rd quarter and substituting nearly the entire 2nd team during the last period to save their 1st stringers for the gruelling final tonight. The Blue Devil's head coach benched 2 regulars, guard Walker and center Riker, for this melee, probably with the foresight of tonight's game. P. Stevenson nailed 5 buckets good for 10 points for the winners, while Oris Channell sunk 7 points, 3 field goals and a foul toss, for the Guernsey County lads.
