STRASBURG - Coach Ken Lawhun brought his "deep freeze" here from Stone Creek (1-5) (4-11) last night, but the hot-shooting and feracious Strasburg Tigers (5-0) (9-1) refused to be "cooled." Although having a few anxious moments, Coach Warren Binder's club crawled to a 7-4 lead at the first stop and steadily increased it to 14-10 at intermission and 27-15 after 3 periods. Strasburg hit on 17 of 41 action attempts for a good 42 percent and made 13 of 17 foul tries. Stone Creek took only 19 shots, canning 7 for a respectable 39 percent. Stone Creek hit on 9 of 14 charity attempts. John Peters led the Tiger attack, getting 15 points. The only other player in 2 digits was Stone Creek's Jim Billman who had 14. "The boys looked very good considering this was the first time they've come up against a stall," Binder said. "They didn't get rattled, but kept their poise and steadily pulled away." The Strasburg Junior team hammered the Stone Creek team 45-32, while the Strasburg Reserves (9-1) blasted a good Stone Creek Reserve (10-3) team 55-35.
