Indian cagers
are outscored
Furman, though pressed to
its limit and thoroughly frustra
ted by the end, scored a 62-59
victory over Newberry Satur
day night at Memorial Audi
torium.
Paladin Jerry Martin drove
for a lay-up with 21 seconds
left-for the winning basket giv
ing Furman a 61-59 lead. When
Newberry’s Mike Barb respond
ed at the other end with a bas
ket, he was convicted of charg
ing, nullifying the shot and eter
nally ending the Indian’s chan
ces for victory.
When Indian Charles Neal
scored with 2:37 left, Newberry
led by six points, 59-53 and Fur
man coach Joe Williams asked
the Paladins final timeout.
Furman resumed a full court
press and it worked. Russ Hunt
hit two free throws and with
2:03 left, Lisco Thomas rose
above dozens of outstretched
arms and dropped in a field
goal.
Newberry’s Joe Styles then
brought the ball upcourt and
ran right over Furman’s Steve
Dougherty. So Styles, who sco
red a remarkable 37 points,
fouled out, and Newberry’s
stock took a nosedive.
Dougherty got the tying bas
ket on a twisting driving shot
and then Furman’s Don Jack-
pon knocked the ball away
from an Indian and the Pala
dins suddenly had the ball and
a 59-59 tie. Furman went to
the four-corners offense, and
with 50 seconds left, Martin saw
the hole open, drove to the bas
ket...and well, you know the
rest.
Newberry coach Nield Gordon
had conceived a beautiful de
liberate style of offense that
kept Furman gasping for air
until the final count. Taking
only extra-high percentage
shots, Newberry crawled to a
29-26 halftime advantage. Styles
who always seemed to be open
or getting that way, had 19 at
intermission. Ironically, he mis
sed two layups.
Still, the Indians made 12 of
17 floor shots in the first half
for a 70.6 percent. And New
berry led in rebounds, 15-9. Ob
viously, something was amiss.
The lead switched hands fre
quently in th° second half. Fur
man assurm its biggest lead
of the night 48-42, with 7:47
left. It w ould have been simple
for Newberry to quit then-they
had played well and had little
to lose-but they didn’t.
Led by Styles, they came
right back and past Furman.
Styles’ last points at 4:05 gave
Newberry the lead. But things
just didn’t work out.
Furman, now a 3-2 for the
season, was led in scoring by
center Hunt’s 16 points. Don
Jackson and Thomas contribu
ted 11.
The Indians won the battle
of the boards 35-28, and still
managed to shoot 60 percent
of their field goals correctly
21 of 35.
The loss dropped the Indians
to a 3-7 record.
Newberry suffered their sixth
loss Wednesday evening at the
hands of conference foe Ca
tawba College, 99-88. Newberry
scored first, but it was the only
time they led.
At the half the score stood
50-37 in favor of Catawba. De
spite a hot streak by New
berry’s Bill Ellis, who shot
eight field goals in the second
half, the Indians of South Caro
lina could not get any closer
than ten points.
Catawba’s Bill Bailey was the
game’s high man with 29 points,
followed by Newberry’s Joe
Styles with 18.
The Indians are now taking
a rest for final examinations
and the Christmas holidays;
they will resume action again
Tuesday, January 5, when they
meet Belmont Abbey from Bel
mont, N. C. in MacLean Gym
nasium.
