52 - Midvale Destroys Port 63-26 (2-14-52)









DOVER - The Midvale Blue Devils (1-1) (19-3) (53-26), who poured on the coal with a blazing 3-man fast break, had an easy time rolling over the Port Washington Purple Riders (0-2) (10-11) (16-47) with ace Sophomore center Ken Huston running into a cool night and collecting a meager 3 points for his effort during the 2nd game of the 18th Tuscarawas County Class B Basketball Consolation Division Tournament.

Jumping off to a 15-7 lead in the 1st quarter, the Blue Devils kept right on rambling as they chalked up lopsided advantages of 30-13 in the 2nd frame and 42-16 at the 3rd stanza stop.  The Purple Riders collected only 2 free throws in the final round before Head Coach Chuck Stocker started clearing the bench with 5 minutes left in the contest.

Junior center Dick Tolloti, the county's leading scorer during regular season play, sparked the Diablos with 16 points, giving him 435 markers so far this year, while his teammates, Junior forward Don Graham and Senior guard Bill Marshall, kicked in another 11 and 10 markers.  Senior guard Ralph Stewart was high for the exasperated Riders.
