SPORT SHORTS: Chicago EdgAes Detroit David Made LA Coach Pioneers Favored in Finals By MIKE GILLMAN The wrap-up of the collegiate hockey season gets underway in Boston tomorrow as the NCAA finals begin. Heavy favorite3 in the tourney are the Pioneers df Denver, league champions of the Western Col- legiate Hockey Association. Denver earned the right to the playoffs by knocking off Colorado ClJege last weekend for the sixth and seventh times this season by 9-2 and 3-1 margins. The other WCHA representa- tive is Michigan Tech, second in the league for regular season play. The Huskies topped defending NCAA champion North Dakota twice in the WCHA playoffs, 4-2 and 5-4. Eastern Entries The eastern entries will be St. Lawrence and Boston University. The eastern teams are chosen on a one-game playoff basis and St. Lawrence topped Boston College, 4-3, while Boston U. was tripping Dartmouth, 4-1. Most observers of the college scene pick the Denver team to walk away with the honors with little difficulty. Bobbie Watt, this year's captain of the Michigan puck squad, feels that Denver and Michigan Tech will both win their opening games with ease and that Denver will then stop Tech in the champion- ship round.. "If anything but that happens," says Watt, "it will be a real up- set." St. Lawrence Strongest Perhaps the strongest eastern contender is St. Lawrence, the only team in the east that met any competition from the WCHA during the year. Michigan opened its season with an easy 6-0 win over the Larries at Canton, N.Y. and then dropped a 6-5 nod to the host school two nights later. The best the Wolverines could do in the WCHA was fifth, while St. Lawrence went on to become an eastern powerhouse. This fact alone points up one reason why the NCAA entries are pre-tourney the WCHA entries are pre-tour- ney favorites. The tourney pairings are as follows: Thursday night: Michigan Tech (20-9-1) vs. St. Lawrence (14-6-2). Friday night: Denver (25-4-3) vs. Boston U. (18-7). 1-1 S'ORES Monday Night's scores NEW YORK ) - Top-seeded Bradley rattled Dayton with its vaunted press defense last night and streaked into the semi-finals of the National Invitation Bas- ketball Tournament with a 78-64 victory over the bigger, stronger Flyers. Bradley will meet St. Bonaven- ture, a shocking 106-71 victor over St. John's last night, in the semi-finals Thursday night. Bradley, the only club to beat Cincinnati this season, trailed Dayton 37-35 when Coach Chuck Orsborn ordered the press. The Braves, who pulled out many a regular season game with this full court defense that depends on speed and agility, needed just five minutes to grab the lead for good. There was 17:10 left 'when the press was applied and 12 minutes remained when Soph Chet Walk- er hit a Jump shot to poke Brad- ley in front to stay, 46-44. Dayton, which averages nearly 6'6" when it has its three big men in the game, pulled within two points at 52-50 but that was it. The Braves from the Missouri Valley Conference turned on their team speed, and made it a rout. Walker wound up with 22 points --16 of them; in the second half. Senior Dan Smith had 21 and was the key man in keeping the Braves in the game until their press and speed broke it open. Two other Braves hit double figures,, Mack Herndon getting 14 and Al Saunders 12. Garry Roggenburk, Dayton's classy 6' 6" soph, had 21 points and pulled down 15 rebounds in a fine all around performance.
