34 - Strasburg Iron-Men Knocks Off Midvale 31-16 (2-23-34)








DOVER - The Mighty Strasburg Tigers (3-0) (28-5) were off to a slow start, but beginning with its regular scoring tactics in the 2nd quarter had little trouble disposing the Midvale Blue Devils (2-1) (10-6) by 15 points, 31-16.  The Tigers led all the way.  The score showed 5-2 in the 1st quarter, 19-7 in the 2nd quarter and 25-13 in the 3rd.

The Midvale players were unable to bottle up Senior forward John "Johnny" Studer who piled up 11 points (5 field goals and a free throw), while guard Bud Reiger went "hot" and tallied another 10 points (4 filed goals and 2 foul shots).  Forward Frank Cox was the Blue Devil mainstay with 8 points, 2 field goals and 4 free throws.  Junior forward Paul Brumholtz, sturdy little player, was the handy man for Midvale.  The Tigers continued to display their snappy passing and speedy offense with Junior center George Denzer the key passer.  Senior guard Adrian "Fuzz" Miller also stood out for the Tigers with his flashy floor game.

NOTE:  Paul Baumholtz, sterling forward of the Midvale cagers, fractured an elbow in the game with the Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates last week, but played the entire game without telling anyone about it.  Last night he again played with the injured elbow and was among the leading passers of the Blue Devils.
