With only one game behind it, the '53 basketball team faces a Boston University freshman outfit which Coach Floyd Wilson calls "one of the best teams we'll meet this season." The game starts at 6:45 p.m. tonight in the Indoor Athletc Building.
The freshmen had little trouble smothering Tufts, 60 to 36, Saturday, but as in most opening game romps, it is difficult to tell whether the Yardlings are really good or whether Tufts just didn't have it.
Two Triumphs
The BU team is not a question mark club. On successive nights it walloped the MIT freshmen, 74 to 40, and Dean Academy, 60 to 35. The Terriers have only one starter over six feet, but three of the first team received "most outstanding schoolboy player" awards in Connecticut, Maine, and New Hampshire.
Coach Wilson has had to juggle his starting lineup since the Tufts game because of a groin injury to center Dick Lionette.
