The score was 29-28 in favor of Julian Scott’s Marshall countians.      Hundred outscored the victors from the floor but Julian Scott’s team was more proficient at the foul line and converted nine of 13 chances. The Century passers fell down on fouls, when their mark was six out of 14.      Flack led the attack for Cameron with three goals and had a perfect night with six free throws. Shultz and Hostettler were the best of the Hundred scorers. King contributed six points to the team total.      The Cameron Junior High dropped a 29-15 verdict to Hundred Juniors in the preliminary.
