SUGARCREEK - Garaway's Pirates (8-10) nipped Port Washington (9-7) here Saturday night, snapping a 4-game losing streak.  Leading by one point, 56-55 with a minute left in the game, Geof Stevanus, the only Senior  on Garaway's team  and playing in his last home contest, calmly sank 2 foul shots which proved to be enough for the victory.  Larry Laisure of Port drilled in a fielder with 10 seconds left.  Garaway had possession as the clock expired.  The margin of victory came at the foul lines where Coach Joe Richards' club hit on 12 of 16 to only 7 of 18 for Don Durham's aggregation.  Port had 25 field goals to 23 for Garaway.  Stevanus topped the winning attack along with Randy and Frank Miller, all 3 getting 13 points.  High-scoring Don Deetz was hampered by an ankle injury and got just 4.  Laisure took game honors, racking up 18 markers.  Paul Schwab added 14 and Wayne blind 10.  The Garaway Reserves (11-6) stung the Port Washington Reserves (7-9) with a 47-22 win.
