TINA BAKER eight points The Stanley Humphries Secondary School Junior Rockettes added a pair of league victories and an exhi- bition win to their season totals last week in games against Grand Forks, Ross- land and ‘Trafalgar. Against Grand Forks rook- ies Leigh Halisheff and Kim Tarasoff led the way with 18 and 13 points respectively. Lube Sapriken played her best game of the season, according to coach Doug Pil- atzke. Sapriken had eight points while Karen Popoff, added six, Tina Baker four, Helaine Oleski three and Lisa Uchida two. Final score was 59-10. At home against Rossland it was again Halisheff and Tarasoff leading the scorers with 19 and 12 points res- pectively. Tina Baker ac- cumulated her highest point tetal with eight, Popoff, con- sistent as ever, added six; Sapriken potted five, while Rochelle Morandini, Uchida and Kelly Findlay each added a pair of baskets. Final score was a whopping 62-14. Against Trafalgar Totems omMonday evening Halisheff and Tarasoff once again led the scorers, but the Rock- ettes’ 30-20 win was largely due to a fine team defensive effort, Pilatzke said. The de- fense continually denied the Nelson girls quality scoring opportunities and controlled the defensive boards against a taller and older team, Pilatzke added. Tarasoff and team captain Morandini blew apart a 10-10 halftime tie with four points each in a third quarter which saw the locals outscore Traf- algar 12-2. Halisheff put the finishing touches on in the final quar- ter scoring eight of her 12 points. Next home action for the team will be the Hi Arrow Classic tournament on Feb. 3-4 weekend.
