Demons Open 1967-68 Season Versus Muscatine Muskies

The Demons host Muscatine to start the 1967-68 campaign on their home court Tuesday evening. Muscatine, a top Little Six favorite with four returning starters, holds height advantage but lacks a true big man. Starters include Huton at center, Ziegenhorn and Hathaway at forwards, Lawrence and Ingstad at guards, with reserves Kurrier and Bridges. Demons rely on Wilson despite an ankle issue and Sojka sidelined briefly by illness, as coach Sproule stresses polishing their game to challenge the Muskies.
