HOKITIKA DEFEAT GREYMOUTH

A representative basketball match was played at Hokitika on Saturday, Hokitika defeating Greymouth by 27 goals to 9. The game was much more even than the scores indicate, the skill of the home defenders accounting for the difference. The centres and forwards were fairly evenly matched, but the Hokitika defenders were much superior to the Greymouth girls. For the winners, K. Duncan, D. McWhirter, and M. Saxon played well, while I. McMillan, B. Tennent, D. Bunt and M. Price were the pick of the visitors.
