FREEPORT - The Gnadenhutten Indians (2-0) went on the warpath in the second half and scalped Lakeland last night for their second straight victory of the season. Lakeland held a slim lead, 10-9 as the first quarter closed, but Gnadenhutten went ahead at halftime 23-21. But, it was still anyone's game until the Indians sharpened their tomahawks at intermission and returned to pour in 21 points to Lakeland's 13 in the third frame. The Indians didn't let up in the fourth period, outscoring Lakeland 19-12. Bob Ervin popped in 23 markers to pace the winning Indians. Jim McCreary tossed in 20 counters to help out. Mike Milarcik scored the nets for 16 points, high for Lakeland. Gnadenhutten was hot from the field, connecting on 25 of 47 attempts for a fine 53 percent accuracy.
