V'EDXESDAY, MARCH 18, 1036. EAST LIVERPOOL REVIEW PAGE NTXE STATISTICS SHOW POTTERS BROKE lyiANY LOCAL RECORDS VIOLETTE BASKETBALL EAST LIVERPOOL REVIEW Individual Scoring Marks Shattered by Porter Total of 408 Hitting for 1082, First To Pass 800 Average Second More than a few local modern time records were broken by Kast Liverpool High's cagers who last week closed their 1936-36 campaign one point short of accomplishing the goal which stands foremost lu the minds of every high school eager, that of qualifying for the state tournament at Columbus. In the matter of games and lost this year's team ranked high among the teams which have represented the high school during the last 10 years both for the regular playing season and for the playing season and tournament games combined but has to take the position behind the 1931-32 team which won 17 and lost only one game during the regular playing season and then split even in two tournament games. The Potter record for this year was 18 triumphs and three defeats during the regular campaign and 22 against five for the season and tournament wars combined. The record is just a mite better than that set up by the 1927-28.

the one team In recent history which made the Columbus grade. That outfit won 16 games during the regular while dropping five and on to take four of five totffoament games for a complete record of 20 victories and six defeats. High Scoring Ability The high scoring ability of the learn this year is worthy of some little comment. The Potters rang up 853 points during the regular playing season and went on in six tournament games to hil 1,092 for the season. They make up the first East Liverpool team in modern history to hit the l.oOO mark.

The fact that the team this year competed In more games than any other team during the 10 year period accounts largely for the mark but at the same time, taking the average points per game to arrive at a fair comparison, the local far outstepped any of the previous aggregations. Msekey rtomps In ringing up the Impressive total of a shade less than 1.100 points, the Potters averaged 40.6 points per game. The best average par game of any of the last 10 teams was 34. Only two teams passed the 700 mark. Jimmy Hamilton's team garnered 741 points In 22 game campaign and added 27 points in one tournament game.

The district championship five of the following year bit for only 634 points in 21 season games and ran the total for the year to 786 -with 152 points in five tourney tilts. One of the big factors In the present setting of such a splendid record was the scoring ability of all five members of tbe first string combination and the particularly outstanding ability of one Porter Mackey, scintillating forward who has been romping around the court these last several years like no other Potter eager has done. This year Mackey turned in the most outstanding scoring record in the history and one that Is looked on with envy all up and down the valley and probably through some of the farther reaches ot the state. The curley haired, diminutive forward, when he rang up his last field goal for the Blue and White in that Bridgeport last Friday night, brought his total for the year to 408 points, or an averagf of 15 points per game. At the end of the regular season his point total hit .309.

He added 99 points in the six tournament games. No East Liverpool eager in recent history ever hit 300 points. Jimmy Hamilton and Bill Laughlin both topped 200 points. Some sports enthusiasts claim Don Debolt hit over 300 back in the early but fell far short of Mackey's 400 mark. Along with Mackey, none of the other four members of the first string five fell down In any way.

Proctor who took second place hit for 156 points, which in most circumstances would be considered a high point total alone. The three remaining Potter regulars all passed the 100 mark and were pretty closely bunched. Steffen had 12S points. Vocial and Heasley hit for 112 and 111 reepectively.
