64 - Strasburg Overwhelms Tuslaw 88-50 (1-11-64)




STRASBURG - A 32-point 1st quarter spurred  unbeaten Strasburg (11-0) to a waltz over Tuslaw (1-9) here Saturday night.  Great balance was the key note for the Bob Shahan-coached Tigers in addition to near-perfect shooting eyes.  Four Tigers hit double figures, led by remarkable John Peters who got 20.  Steady Rick Hall got 18, while Don Wallick and Vic Gessner picked up 13.  Roger Klever popped in 18 and Bill Fox 11 for the Mustangs.  Strasburg fired 33 of 77 action shots through the hoops for a fine 43 percent and swished 22 of 29 charities.  Tuslaw was 17 of 45 for 39 percent and  15 of 28 respectively.  The Tigers outrebounded Tuslaw 40 to 20 with Hall snaring 12.  A full-court press which brought about several steals was the big weapon for Strasburg in the 1st frame.  In the Reserve game Strasburg (10-1) had a harder time taming Tuslaw 38-35.
