The smaller but more maneuverable Crusaders, point underdogs, held Debusschere to 18 points and contained Morgan, a 6-6 driver, pretty much the way Leenig expected them to while Jack (The Shot) Foley, George Blaney and Tim Shea took care of the shooting. Bennington, displeased with his team's effort, nevertheless was willing to forgive and forget, and you couldn't exactly blame him.
