By defeating Richmond 87 to 62 last Saturday, the Huntley Varsity ran their season record to 7 wins against 1 defeat. Their conference record now stands at 3 wins and no Uosses. This puts the Redskins in an initial dead¬ lock with Genoa & Central for possession of first place in the Little "8" standings.
This victory can be attributed to another balanced scoring at¬ tack. Four out of the starting five turned in double figure scor¬ ing performances. Enstrom led with 23. Weber nipped the nets for 21. Rasmusen and Zerbel chipped in with 14 and 10 re¬ spectively. Fritz Harm added 9.
The Redskins shot a torrid 60% from the field. If this balanced scoring continues and their shoot¬ ing percentage stays as good as it has been, the Redskins <'J|f^d have a good shot at the c^^r- ence title.
