Boston College's freshman basketball team edged the Yardlings, 51 to 50, yesterday afternoon in the Boston Garden. This was the first defeat for Coach Lloyd Wilson's squad.
Both teams had trouble shooting on the unfamiliar court. The Eaglets began hitting earlier than the Yardlings and grabbed a ten point lead with ten minutes of game time remaining.
Captain Dick Lionette and forward Jim Urdan rolled up a combined 20 points in the second half. But their late game scoring surge coupled with some fine playmaking by Ed Judson, Buddy Lemay, and Forest Hansen was not enough to catch BC.
