Yearlings Edge Rival Jayvee Quintet, 50-48, in Blockhouse

Loudly-heralded in Blockhouse circles since the start of the current basketball campaign, the Freshman-Jayvee battle disappointed no one yesterday as the Yearlings sneaked in a quickie in the last three seconds of play to edge their elders 50 to 48.

A seesaw contest throughout, with the Jayvees leading 24 to 21 at the half, the game was a pitting of freshman height, backboard control, and accuracy against the Junior Varsity's shifty floor-work and quick, deceptive passing.
