Men's Quintet In Split
After shooting an incredible
71%, at Delaware, the Lehigh
men's basketball team fired
33% against Bucknell, and the
results were predictable.
The Engineers topped the
Blue Hens, 71-60, and bowed to
the Bisons, 54-44.
At Newark, Del., Coach Brian
Hill's forces blistered the nets at
what's believed to be an all-time
Lehigh high in field goal marksmanship, connecting 27 times
from the floor in only 38
attempts.
Charlie Blue, of East Orange,
N.J., was a perfect "7for7" and
Mike Power, of Doylestown,
Pa., followed with another perfect night on "5 for 5." Paul
Hanks, of Warminster, Pa.,
made seven baskets in eight
tries. The team also converted
17 of 26 free throws paced by
Fred Ketcho, of Wood-Ridge,
N.J., who made seven of eight.
Lehigh led 40-22 at halftime.

Riley Honored
Lehigh forward Kevin Riley,

Joseph's Prep, was named East
Coast Conference western section basketball player-of-the-
week for the second week in a
row.
Riley shared his latest honor
with Fred Lee of Rider, also a
Philadelphian, from John Bar-
tram High School. It was the
third time this season that an
Engineer star earned these laurels. The earlier recipient was
senior guard Mike Power, of
Doylestown, Pa., and Central
Bucks East H.S.
The ECC selected Riley after
he scored 48 points and pulled
down 26 rebounds during three
games, a 72-50 rout of West
Chester and losses to LaSalle,
73-67, and Lafayette, 81-68. He
had eight points and six
rebounds against the Explorers, 21 points and seven
rebounds against the Rams and
19 points and 13 rebounds
against the Leopards
