DOVER - The Strasburg Tigers (1-0) (21-1) (66-17) rolled over the Dundee Bulldogs (0-1) (5-8) (19-35) last night at Memorial Hall 70-30.  The Tigers had entirely too much height and finesse for the Bulldogs with Junior center Clarence "Junior" Yackey, 6-5 and Senior guard Marvin Jeffers, 6-1, controlling both bankboards.  Strasburg handed Dundee a 58-21 loss in their only game during the season.

Ahead only 12-6 at the close of the opening quarter, Strasburg widened its advantage to 28-10 at halftime by outscoring Dundee 16 to 4.  The Tigers continued the mauling by outscoring the Bulldogs 22 to 2 as the scoreboard read 59-12  and icing the contest in the 3rd stanza.

Yackey accounted for 19 points and game honors, while his teammate Tom Haswell collected 16 markers as 9 of the 10 Strasburg cagers broke into the scoring column.  The rangy center made 12 of his total in the 1st half as Haswell tallied 8 in the 3rd quarter.  The Tigers held guard Paul Kate, the League's leading scorer, to just 7 points with forward Bud Walter gaining a like number for Dundee.
