Midland won their first game 1-0 over Bramalea Saturday morning. Dunc Brownell turned in the shut out performance and Indusmin Bantams Ross Prentice scored the lone Midland goal. Keeping a lid on the Bramalea offence was Midland's game plan and they followed it well, dropping a blanket over their opposition for most of the game.

Getting the ball up court quickly doesn't allow the defence to properly setup. Longshots were Midland's forte Wed- nesday night as all players were connecting from well out. They were ' forced to try the long ones because Orillia's «zone defence was unpenetrable around the key. "You have to shoot from far out when they're playing the zone," said Longhorns' Kriss Watson. "They just fall back under the boards with their hands up."' Watson had his best game of this season collecting 24 points, many from incredibly long distances. Ray Brien scored 14 points and Dave Dubois 10. Orillia was within Striking distance at the end of the half, down 38- 32. Many of their points came from the foul line as the referees clamped down tightly on both teams, Longhorns being the offenders on most calls. Midland ran away with the game in the second half as Orillia tired and began to give away the ball. Double teaming Orillia players resulted in steals for the hustling Longhorns.
