THE TOURNAMENT TRAIL For the fourth successive year the Coliseum of the Kentucky Fair a7ld Exposition Center, at Louisville has been the site of tom·nament play of the cage world. In 191}8 the NCAA finals saw Kentucky emerge as National Champions and in 1959 this honor went to California. In 196) the Mideast Regional was held here, with Ohio State the winner, ad­ vancing to the finals at San Francisco, winning the National Championship. The Mideast Regional being played in Louisville March 17-18, draws its teams in two ways. Representative of the (Kentucky) and the Big Ten (Ohio State) qualified automatically for berths under the NCAA's plan of recognizing 15 major conference champions. The two other teams advanced to the Regional only after proving themselves in preliminary playoffs at Louisville, hst Tuesday. Out of t he Louisville Regional, one of four such to'..lrnaments going on simultaneously in different parts of the country, will come a regional champion who qualifies to advance to the semi-finals at Kansas City next Friday, March 24. The Louisville survivor is paired against the East Regional winner for the Eastern Championship and the winner goes into a battle Saturday, March 25 for the National Championship.

Eastern Kentucky, Ohio University, Kentucky Wesleyan, Brigham Young, L.S.U., Alabama and Georgia Tech.

The Cards, featuring experienced personnel, r oared away to a great start, winning t heir first 13 games in a row, including the Bluegrass Tournament Championship. They set a new school record for consecutive wins in one season, and tied the record for most consecutive wins in U.L. history. Then came two straight losses, to DePaul and Xavier on road trips. F ollowing an important triumph over Dayton's Flyers in a nationally-televised contest, the Birds whipped Ky. Wesleyan and then ran their record to 17-3 on a Southern swing that produced wins over Tampa and Loyola and a loss to Miami's Hurricanes. Eastern Ky. scored a win at Richmond before the Cards wrote more history into the record books. They walloped Ohio University at home by a 117-84 margin. The 117 points was highest score r,•:':!r posted by a U.L. team and the club hit 47 field goals that evening for a new mark in that department. Then the l'Oof caved in . With an N CAA bid tucked away in their pockets, the Cards dropped consecutive games to Dayton, DePaul a nd Western Ky. That set the stage for quite a situation. If they lost to Marquette (Also NCAA-bound), in the season's finale, t he Cards would have set a new record for wins in one season and would have tied a record for losses (consecutive) in one season at four. But the Cards were sharp in the finale and returned to eaTly-season form with convincing defensive and offensive play. NCAA foes present for the contest left Freedom Hall March 6 knowing that a big job faces t heir ball clubs when the marbles are up for keeps, starting next week.

In baseball, Fred was a fine first baseman, win­ ning All-American honors in 1950. Ohio State University's defending NCAA bas­ ketball championships have repeated as Western Conference kings, the first time the Buckeyes have ever put titles back to back. I n going t hrough an unbeaten season of 24 games, the Buckeyes became t he first Ohio State team ever to accomplish the feat. The 1900-1961 Ohio State squad goes into the Mid-East Regionals with a 29 game winning streak, having won the last five a year ago. The Buckeyes also boast a 23 game winning streat at home. Headed by high-scoring J erry Lucas, an all­ American for the second t ime, t he Buckeyes have dominated national statistics. Lucas had been a mong the nation's leading scorers and rebounders and carries a .600 plus in accuracy. Cap­ tain , also named on several all­ American teams, has headed the shoot­ ers of the nation. He has been over 88 per cent in this department and also averages 15 points per game. , one of the nation's finest de­ fensive players, also averaged 15 points a game, and, while he always draws the leading scorer on the opposing team, has limited personal fouling to less than two per game. , an outstanding floor man and out­ side shooter, and Richie Hoyt, who specializes in hook shots, complete the starting lineup. The Buckeyes, as a team, have been averaging 49 per cent from the field and 76 per cent from the foul line. Rebounds have been favoring Ohio by more than 300 for the season and their point spread against opponents has been a pproximately 20 points. Siegfried and Hoyt are the senior members of LARRY SIEGFRIED, Guard , Center the team; Lucas, Nowell and Havlicek are juniors. (Captain) LAUSMAN OIL CO.

Region.::!.

Four-time National Champion Kentucky, will make an unpre~edented 12th appearance in the NCAA Mideast Re­ gional Tournament to cap a brilliant late-season comeback, with 10 straig ht wins. The comeback is even more impressive t han mere num­ ber of games since in the course of their surge the Ruppmen handed Mississippi State their first league loss of the season at Starksville, defeated a Florida team that was leading the league at the time, outdefended the nation's ninth best de­ fensive unit in Auburn and gained revenge against Vander­ bilt. Before it became appar ent t hat the 1960-1!}61 Somh­ east ern Conference basketball race would etch itself into the record books as undoubtedly the most topsy-turvy one in history, the advance word on the Wildcats of Adolph Rupp was simply: " Don't sell Kentucky short!" And, as the 12 embattled cage outfits of the league 1 headed into the home stretch of a race that had taken sur­ pl'ising form, the warning regarding the Ruppmen still held good despite the fact that t hey had encountered unprece­ dented trouble. Kentucky, like four or five other basketball powers of the conference figured to be fighting it out for the lead, was "on t he outside looking in." But, even though sophomore­ dominated Mississippi State held a commanding lead of seven DICK PARSONS, Guard straight conference wins and the Wildcats lingered in fifth BILL LICKERT, (Captain) place with four setbacks, Kentucky still was far from dead.

Picked to finish fourth in the always rugged Ohio Valley Conference, the Eagles finished with a rush to tie pre-season conference co-favorites West­ ern Kentucky and Eastern Kentuck-y. All had 9-3 conference marks. The three went into a post-season playoff to decide which would represent the conference in the NCAA and the Eagles, despite having to play four irnmes in nine days, upended 1:- ~ern 55-54 and Western 80-72 in an overtime. Little did the Eagles followers know that the Eagles guard duo of 5-11 speedster s Henderson "Reekie" Thompson and Granville Williams would become one of the finest twosomes in the nation. And little did those same observers realize that the Eagles quartet of big men-6-8 Ed Noe, 6-8 Norman Pokley, 6-6 Arthur Cole and 6-5 John Gibson­ would devour the opposition on the boards. In a capsule, that has been the story behind Morehead's surprising success-great shooting from t he guards and tremendous rebounding by the big men- plus the hard to define qualities of spirit and desire. Dr. Adron Doran, Morehead's energetic and popular president, says, "This is undoubtedly one of the most spirited and colorful teams I have ever seen. Their courage and determination has carried them a long way and this may well be the real sur­ prise team in the NCAA tourney." Morehead is no stranger to the NCAA tourney as the Eagles have represented the OVC in the big show twice in the past five years. Laughlin's charges won two and lost one in the 1956 tournament and HENDERSON THOMPSON GRANVILLE WILLIAMS Guard set a season's national scoring l'eCord of 95.6 points a game- a record which still stands. The following Guard year, Pittsburg· edged Morehead by one point in the first row1d.
