Senior Rock VanFossen and Sophomore whiz John Studer formed an unbeatable 1-2 punch for the tough Tigers, scoring 28 and 24 points, respectively. Three Knights hit double figures, Ken VanSickle leading the way with 18 tallies, Mike Nugent getting 16 and Dean Lowe contributing 10. Strasburg fired in 43 percent of its floor flings and 17 of 24 charities. West Holmes was on target 23 percent of the time during action and sank 15 of 23 foul tries.

West Holmes led once, 2-1, and the score was tied as many times, 3-3. From then on the touted Tigers had things their own way, working the ball in for the good shots. Strasburg will host Garaway Friday. The West Holmes Reserves beat down the Strasburg Reserves (7-2) 53-38.
