Wes Fesler's hoopsters went down to defeat on Saturday night on the short end of a 29-26 score, with the boys from Amherst adding one more trophy to their row of six consecutive victories. Captain Boys starred for the Feslermen, dropping four floor-shots and one foul in one of the closest games that the Crimson quintet has lost this season.
Amherst led by ten points half-way through the first half, but by the time the period ended, the Feslermen had evened the count at 13-13. From then on, it looked like a Crimson victory, but a last-minute rally from the Amherst team gave them the victory by three points.
The summary: Score--Amherst 29, Harvard 26. Goals--Boys 4, Turner 4, Coey 4, Kollinites 2, Gray 2, Moses 2, Fusco 1, Fletcher 1. Free throws--Kollinites 3, Turner 2, Coey 2, Holmes 2, Fletcher 2, Gray 1, White 1, Boys 1, Fusco 1. Referees--Parker, Melleher. Time--two 20 minute periods.
