STRASBURG - A 4-pronged attack featuring Don Wallick, Adrian Edie, Jim Clymer and John Peters paced Strasburg (4-3) (10-6) to its decisive victory over Tuscarawas (5-3) (8-7). All 4 scored in double figures for Coach Warren Binder who said after the game, "It was by far our best performance of the year." Sophomore Don Wallack led the parade with 16 points, while Edie had 15, Clymer 12 and Peter 12. The key to the game, as it turned out, was Strasburg's sucessful attempt to put the horse-collar on Tuscarawas' high-scoring stars Fred Burmich and Phil Meese. They could net only 16 points between them as the Broncos went down to defeat. Strasburg boasted its win streak to 5 games and assured itself of a winning season. The Tigers jumped off to an 8-0 lead in the early minutes of the game and just kept increasing the lead. Binder cleared the bench midway in the third quarter. From the field Strasburg shot 49 percent on 30 of 81, while Tuscarawas went 19 for 55 for 31 percent. Burmich paced Tuscarawas with 9 points, while Phil Meese and Dave Peoples each had 7 points. The Tuscarawas Reserves (8-7) won their game with the Strasburg Reserves (4-11) 38-36.
