DENNISON - For one quarter the Tuscarawas Broncos (1-1) (4-4) (11-9) played a top-notch brand of basketball. They slowed down in the 2nd quarter and with a speedy, ball hawking, alert group of Tuscarawas Valley Trojans (2-0) (6-2) (15-4) whizzing up and down the hard court lanes, that was disastrous for the Broncos. For Tusky it was the end of the 1959-60 basketball campaign!
The Bucking Broncos were behind only 16-14 at the end of the 1st quarter, but with the Trojans and 5-9 Senior Chuck Cantrill in particular, putting on the squeeze, the last resemblance of life was snatched away from the Riders. They began to fall behind 30-19 and 55-33 by the end of the next 2 stops. Cantrill scored 21 points in the 1st half alone and ended the night with 34 points, for game laurels.
He received a good helping hand from 5-5 Junior Ron Lake and Senior Bruce Ickes who scored 15 and 10 points respectively. It was just a typical night for the Trojans of Tusky Valley. Loose and ready to dash the length of the floor at the drop of a handkerchief...or should we say basketball...they turned the Tuscarawas Broncos' miscues into easy layup baskets.
Tuscarawas County's leading scorer, 5-11 Senior Gary Caviness, who bid farewell to county fans at least in the high school sport. He scored 21 markers before fouling out with 15 seconds remaining. Teammate Sophomore Dean Kerns added 10 points. The Tuscarawas Valley Trojans enjoyed a successful night from the field, canning 29 of 67 for 43.3 percent. It added 17 of 27 from the free throw line. The Broncos could manage only 19 of 67 for 28.4 percent, in an obvious "off night" performance. They made 16 of 21 free throws.
