almost every night. That and a
lack of practice really hurt us. I
told the kids that we are just try-

break. Then, we can go back to

can teach everyone the offense.

The low-scoring of the Blue-
jacket forwards had a lot to do
with the Demon defense. The
guards took advantage of Coyle's
poor ball-handling abilities and
pressured constantly to cause
turn-overs. The fly-switch was
very effective in the first half.
The highscorers for the
Demonette team were Smith with
a big 16, Caldwell close behind

9th GRADE GIRLS
HANDED LOSS
By I~ri Redus
December t0. the freshmen
girls took a loss from the Yale
Bulldogs. The upsetting score
was 41-20.
Tonya Gill, Andi Bayhylle and
April Shipley were the starting
forwards while Tina Rush.
Debrina Gaches and Sandi
Vorhees started as guards.
Throughout the game, the guards
had trouble bringing up the ball,
and the forwards only scored
seven field goals.
Coach Frazier commented. "We
learned a lot from the game, but
we were outmatched. We ran
plays correctly but not continual-
ly. and we still need a lot of work
on our fundamentals."
High scorer for Yale was
Thomas with 31 points. Andi
Bayhylle led the charge for the
Demonettes with 9 points.

FRESHMAN GIRLS PECKED 7th GIRLS KEEP IT CLOSE
8th GRADE BOYS PUT
BULLDOGS ON A CHAIN
By Julie Ryan
"I'm glad to get the win
although we could're played bet-
ter," commented Coach Willis
about the 8th grade boys game
against Yale. The Bulldogs lost
the game to the Demons with a
final tally of 25-16.
The Demon team played ex-
cellent defense, doing a good job
of rebounding and scoring off of
steals. Perkins was a stride ahead
of Yale the entire game. The Yale
defense held the Demons for over
a period, letting them add only a
single basket to their score.
Moore drove for two to break
the team out of their slump and
for the rest of the fourth the
Demons were in control.
The high scorer was Moore
with 7. Taylor and Warren follow-
ed with 5 apiece. Sylvester put in
4, and Wolfe' and Stanton had 2
apiece.
Good job. guys.

9th GRADE BOYS
DEVASTATE BULLDOGS
On Monday. December 10. the
freshman boys easily whipped the
Yale Bulldogs witb a final score
of 42-26.
Alton Carter, Brent Frazier.
Matt Sharp, Lloyd Gwin. and
Bryan Frazier started out for the
Demons. The Demons captured
the opening tip off which led them
to score free shot after free shot.
The Demons continued with their
excellent team work leaving the
first period score 9-6. The
Demons never trailed, although
they did appear to slack off for
awhile, at which time Yale came
on strong. However. the Demons
went in at halftime leading 23-12.
Bryan Frazier was the first to
score in the third quarter. Matt
Sharp precisely intercepted the
ball twice, scoring and getting a
jump ball. The Demons made
several ,careless turnovers,
though, and Yale dominated the
third period. Alton Carter came
on strong with several assists and
some fancy dribbling. Again. the
freshman team pulled in a win at
42-26.
Coach Scalissi had the follow-
ing comments to make: '~The
freshman team's victory over
Yale. Monday night, was a total
team effort. The 9th graders have
two more games before Christ-
mas: Thursday against Drum-
right, and Monday against
Guthrie. With continued hard
work and improvement, the
Demons hope to do well against
these next two opponents.'"
