East Chicago Black Cats top Hammond Morton in tourney consolation
East Chicago Washington Holiday Tournament action saw Indiana's colorful coach Howard Sharpe guide the Black Cats to a 52-49 win over Hammond Morton in the consolation game. A technical foul on Sharpe followed a disputed call by official Dwayne Laird, with Sharpe defending the decision and praising his team's defense and late resilience. Sharpe noted Washington as the state’s best, Michigan City a solid foe, and Tech’s improved play despite 18 offensive errors in the Morton game. Morton, coached by Joe DePough, also pushed East Chicago close in earlier rounds. Mike Reyher of Tech, initially feared to have appendicitis, was held to limited action after a muscle spasm.
