Norwalk Trucker Offense Seeks Consistency in Key Weekend Tests
Norwalk aims for steady play as they face Galion at home Friday and Huron on the road Saturday. Coach Leonard Hardman keeps the same lineup with Sonny Coles and Tom Edwards delivering standout scores while Dave Sweet and Stu Schillig anchor the posts and guards. Huron counters with senior leadership led by Stan Miller and Roddy Payne, and Galion lines up four seniors plus a standout guard corps as they try to rebound from early miscues. The Tigers’ Steve Fisher and Bill O'Hare pace the backcourt while Greg Palmer and Paul Holzhauser provide frontcourt depth. Fisher scored 24 in a 59-54 win over Edison and 15 in a loss to St Mary, with O'Hara averaging 11.
