One of the most consistently successful players in the Canterbury men’s basketball A grade competition this season has been B. Woolford (Rex). With one round of games now completed, Woolford’s in-
dividual points total is second only to that of the American Rotary Scholar, S. Bridges (University A). He has scored 68 points in the six matches he has played in and has generally been the spearhead of Rex’s attack. Woolford was a late selection for the Canterbury B side last season, but is showing much better form now.
