33 - Strasburg Coasts Against Carrollton 29-9 (3-3-33)
DOVER - The Strasburg Tigers (4-0) looked like a Class A Club last night when they humiliated a snappy Carrollton Warriors outfit, 29-9, in the 3rd game of last night's tournament session at Legion Hall. The regulars blanked the Warriors 20-0 the entire 1st half and Head Coach Paul M. Roby ran in an entire 2nd team before the 3rd period was well under way. The end of 3rd period found the Tigers up 24-0 and in the 4th and final period each team picked up 9 points each.
The winners looked like the Champions they are that 1st half with their regulars. Junior forward John "Johnny" Studer, unstoppable, rattled 5 shots through the cords from a pivot position for 10 points under the basket and Sophomores forward Bill "Doddles" Haas and center George Denzer also stood out for Strasburg. The Tigers will collide with the Newcomerstown Trojans' rangy outfit tonight and will be favorites to win and advance to the District finals at Dennison next week-end.

33 - Sugarcreek-Shanesville Noses Out Freeport 31-26 (3-3-33)
DOVER - The Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates (4-1) turned back the Freeport Raiders' driving crew, big center and all, last night in the 2nd game of the tourney session, by a 31-26 score to earn the right to mix things up with the Dennison Railroaders today in the Eastern Ohio Sectional Finals.
The Pirates, playing against a looser Freeport outfit than the one who nosed out Walnut Creek in the opening round, did not have the ball game their own way at any time and only in the last minutes of the 4th quarter did they cinch victory, while they stalled against the losers' 5-man defense. Sugarcreek-Shanesville led in the 1st quarter 13-12, held a 6 point lead, 21-15, at the half, while Freeport led at the end of the 3rd quarter 25-24. Forward Boyd "Doc" Burkey, passing well and hanging up 12 points, center Harold Logsdon holding and out-jumping big-boy Fulton and guard Don Norris, also ringing up 12 markers, looked good individually. Freeport was led by forward Kinsey with 3 field goals and 3 free throws for 9 points.

33 - All-Tournament Honors 1933
Third year Head Coach Roy M. Roby led the Strasburg Tigers who were Champions of the League and County Tournament for the last 2 years straight.
DOVER - Strasburg High School's basketball team captured its 5th county tournament championship at Legion Hall Saturday night by defeating the Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates 38-25 at the close of a thrilling 3-day meet. The team this year completed its 3rd season of undefeated ball in the County League competition and pushed a consecutive string of League victories to 29. The members of the successful team: Junior Elwyn Rieger - guard, Junior John "Johnny" Studer - forward, Sophomore George Denzer - center, Sophomore Bill Haas - forward, Senior Bill Jones - guard, Sophomore Jim Dreher - forward, Senior Foster Peters - guard, Golden - center, Senior Fred Schenk - guard, Sophomore Adrian Miller - forward and Senior Lewis H. Huth - Student Manager.
The most-outstanding candidate for The Daily Reporter's All-Tournament Team was Don Norris, Sugarcreek-Shanesville guard. Last year Norris only "made" the squad. He was not a regular player and did not rate a suit when that team went to the State Tournament. During the past year he has according to Sugarcreek-Shanesville followers, "grown like a weed" and his basketball abililty has enlarged proportionately. In the tournament just past he led the entire field in scoring with 24 field goal baskets and 7 fouls to his credit for a total of 55 points....an average of 13.8 points per game. Meanwhile all the forwards he guarded collected only 8 baskets and 5 foul shots for a total of 21 points.
Senior Boyd "Doc" Burkey and John Studer, both high scorers and floormen with a keen basketball sense, stood out easily above the forwards for the 1st selections. Both assumed the position of field marshall for their respective teams, although guard Bill Jones captained Strasburg in the final.
Greatest lack of material for all-tournament selections was at the center positions. Both pivot players of Strasburg and Sugarcreek-Shanesville stood head and shoulders above the remainder, while Senior Dennis Richardson of Baltic might be considered the 3rd best.
Picking Bill Jones for a guard position opposite Don Norris was as easy as picking Norris. His game against Sugarcreek-Shanesville in the final was one of the brightest spots of the meeting.

33 - Strasburg Tigers Win 11th Annual Tuscarawas County Class B Basketball Tournament (2-25-33)
Strasburg Tigers 1933 League and Tournament Champions. Head Coach Paul M. Roby, George Denzer, Jim Dreher, Golden, Bill Haas, Bill Jones, Adrian Miller, Foster Peters, Elwyn Rieger, Fred Schenk and John "Johnny" Studer.
DOVER - Unleasing the same fierce attack that carried it undefeated through 3 successive League seasons, the Strasburg Tigers (3-0) (25-5) whose basketball team on Saturday night won the tournament championship of the Tuscarawas County Class B school systems, defeated its ancient rival, Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates (3-1) (13-8), by a score of 38-25. The victory gave Strasburg its 2nd consecutive Championship in both the county League and the county Tournament.
Played at Legion Hall, the final game drew a crowd of nearly 1,500 persons, the largest of the 3-day session and one that filled the large hall to capacity. As a result of the game and the tournament, Strasburg, Sugarcreek-Shanesville and the Dundee Bulldogs will represent the county system in the Ohio Eastern Sectional Tournament of the Eastern Ohio District at Legion Hall this weekend. Strasburg and Sugarcreek-Shanesville because they were finalist in this tourney and Dundee because it had the highest League standing of the tournament defeated teams.
Traveling the long way, Sugarcreek-Shanesville reached the finals by defeating the Stone Creek Panthers, Dundee and the Baltic Eagles. Strasburg, which drew a bye in the 1st round, defeated the Port Washington Purple Riders and the Bolivar Cardinals to reach the peak.
With their combination clicking at high speed the Tigers took an early lead in the final game and marched without faltering to victory. They led every step of the way after the 1st five minutes. Junior guard Elwyn Rieger opened the scoring with a field goal in those early minutes, but forward Boyd "Doc" Burkey dropped a long one through the netting to tie the count. Senior guard Bill Jones scored from afield for the Burgermen, while guard Miller of the Pirates tallied a free throw. Center Harold Logsdon followed through on the 2nd of Miller's free tosses, which missed and scored a bucket which gave the Creekers their only lead with the score 5-4. Junior forward John "Johnny" Studer tied the count with a foul and then Jones' next bucket gave the Burgers the lead they never lost.
Sugarcreek's shooting eyes, the marvel of the early tournament were off form for the final and added to the deficiency was their utter failure to follow-up their shots or to attempt to hawk the ball under the bankboard. That last problem had much to do with the great difference in the score. Strasburg, controlling the ball the majority of the time throughout the game, led 8-5 at the end of the quarter and 17-14 at halftime. They increased their 3-point advantage to one of 7 in the 3rd period...which ended with Strasburg leading 29-22...and then almost doubled in the final session during which they counted 9 points to Sugarcreek-Shanesville's three.
Two men were banished from the game on personal fouls. Sophomore forward Bill Haas of Strasburg and guard Norris of the Pirates, both went out in the 4th quarter. Studer, Tiger ace, carried off scoring honors with 12 points scored on 5 field goals and 2 free throws. Jones, of Strasburg, was 2nd high with 11 tallies collected on 5 buckets and a foul shot. Burkey found the hoop 4 times from action and twice from the free-line to lead his team with 10 points. Burkey really potted 3 free throws, but the 3rd was voided because he stepped over the line shooting it. Guard Don Norris was 2nd high for the Pirates with 9 points off 3 field goals and 3 free tosses.

33 - Sugarcreek-Shaneville Hammers Baltic 46-20 (2-25-33)
DOVER - That new rule drafted to eliminate stalling from basketball went for naught when the Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates (3-0) (13-7) defeated the Baltic Eagles (2-1) (4-8) by a score of 46-20 in the lower-bracket semi-final Saturday afternoon. The Pirates piled up a comfortable lead in the 1st half and spent much of the 2nd division of the game toying with the ball. A 12-4 lead in the opening period went to 23-10 at halftime when the finalists began stalling. The Eagles were held scoreless in the 3rd period which ended 34-10.
Head Coach A.C. Bahler of the winning team jerked his varsity in the final period and substituted his 2nd team which continued to out-score Baltic. Norris, Sugarcreek-Shanesville guard, was high scorer of the game with 15 points, 7 baskets and a foul shot. Forward Boyd Burkey, who passed up many shots to hand the scoring irons to his teammates, was 2nd with 12 markers, 5 field goals and 2 free throws. Sophomore guard Paul Levengood counted the most for Baltic with 8 points to his credit with 4 field goals.

33 - Strasburg Gets By Bolivar 32-26 (2-25-33)
DOVER - The Strasburg Tigers (2-0) (24-5) in the semi-final triumph over the Bolivar Cardinals (1-1) (12-9), by a score of 32-24, was unimpressive and its play anything but indicative of the latent power brought into play against the finalists of the lower bracket.
The Cardinals took the lead in the opening period, which ended 10-7, but lost it as the half ended with the Champions 2 points ahead on a count of 15-13. Bolivar spurted through the 3rd period and commanded a 3-point edge with the score 23-20 as the final period started. Forward Wolf of the Cardinals, led the scoring honors with 12 points on 4 baskets and 4 foul shots. Junior forward John "Johnny" Studer of the Tigers, was 2nd with 11 points, 5 field goals and 1 free throw.
