00:00 [music playing]
00:03 Evening, ladies and gentlemen.
00:28 We're about to witness the basketball battle
00:30 of the century.
00:31 The whole town has turned out to back the local team
00:33 from University U, and Polytechnic University
00:35 from upstate is well supported, too.
00:37 The UUPU rivalry dates back to the beginning of the century,
00:40 and up to now, the score is even.
00:42 And tonight's battle is a toss-up
00:43 between these two squads.
00:44 [music playing]
00:47 Here comes the home squad out onto the floor.
00:49 Just listen to that crowd.
00:50 [cheering]
00:52 And here comes the visiting team.
00:54 Hooray!
00:56 [cheering]
00:58 The teams are out there warming up now,
00:59 and it won't be long before we get underway.
01:02 Basketball attracts the tall boys,
01:04 whose great height makes it easy for them to drop
01:05 the ball through the hook.
01:08 These last-minute practice shots are very important to the boys.
01:11 They like to have their eyes sharpened up
01:12 for that old bucket.
01:13 [music playing]
01:17 All right, we're ready to go here now.
01:24 It's a tense moment.
01:26 The players are anxiously awaiting
01:27 the outcome of the first toss.
01:28 [music playing]
01:31 The polytechnic coach is giving last-minute instructions
01:37 to his star player.
01:39 The referee is picking up the ball.
01:40 [music playing]
01:44 Now both squads are on the court.
01:45 They line up for the jump.
01:47 Oh, the tension is terrific.
01:48 [whistle blows]
01:49 [music playing]
01:53 The ball is tipped.
01:54 Vada has it.
01:55 He's pivoting.
01:56 He bounces the ball to West, who dribbles
01:57 and passes to Hannah.
01:58 Hannah tosses back to West.
01:59 West to Hannah, back to West, to Hannah, to West, to Hannah,
02:02 to West.
02:03 The ball's to Vada in the pivot spot.
02:04 Back to West, waiting for an opening.
02:05 To Reeves, to Huber, over to-- oh, there's the break.
02:08 Reeves, dribbling the ball, past the defense, under the basket.
02:10 He shoots.
02:11 It's good.
02:12 Two points, and the home team draws first blood.
02:15 Wright takes it out of bounds.
02:16 Flipped it to Vada, over to Reeves again
02:17 in the pivot position, over to Gracie, to Burke, to Peeb--
02:19 [whistle blows]
02:21 The sharp eyes of the referee sometimes catch
02:23 the most dangerous things the spectators miss.
02:25 So let's retrace that last play and view
02:27 it through the referee's eye.
02:30 Sibley dribbling.
02:31 They guard him closely.
02:32 And he passes to Wright.
02:35 West has it, dribbling down court.
02:37 Look at that footwork.
02:40 Satterwhite gets one free throw.
02:42 It's up to the referee to make sure that the thrower's feet do
02:45 not overlap the free throw line.
02:46 And he makes the point.
02:50 King tosses into Sibley, who dribbles down court
02:52 to the line, pivots, and passes to Tobleman in position.
02:55 And he's-- no, Hagan has the ball.
02:57 He shoots.
02:58 It's blocked.
03:00 No, it's-- it's-- it's--
03:01 it's-- no, no, it's-- it's--
03:02 [cheering]
03:06 Yes, it's good.
03:07 What teamwork.
03:09 The ball's in to Murray, who dribbles
03:10 past the offensive man.
03:11 There's a long pass.
03:13 Gracie has it.
03:14 He dribbles in and shoots.
03:15 It's good.
03:16 Reeves tosses the long one down to Hannah.
03:18 To West, back to-- no, it's intercepted.
03:20 Shot from the side and good.
03:22 There's another basket, another, and another.
03:24 They're on the university's basket now.
03:26 Hannah shoots, good.
03:27 Reeves shoots, good.
03:28 There's another shot, and another, and another,
03:30 and another, all good.
03:30 And it's tipped in, and that's good too.
03:32 Wright has it, dribbling down the sideline.
03:34 He's in the clear.
03:36 Hell ball.
03:37 These UU boys are really on their toes.
03:38 [cheering]
03:41 [whistle blows]
03:42 [cheering]
03:45 Reeves takes the ball, dribbles into his front court.
03:48 Wow.
03:49 Berg ties him up.
03:51 But he gets it away.
03:52 It's in.
03:54 Right into Berg, over to Gracie, back to Wright.
03:56 Hannah to Reeves, over the center, into West,
03:58 to Banta, to Satterwhite.
04:00 And there's the gun ending the first half.
04:02 The teams are going to the dressing room
04:03 for that well-earned rest.
04:05 All set to go again.
04:07 UU has a four-point lead as we go into the second half.
04:09 [chatter]
04:11 [whistle blows]
04:12 [grunting]
04:15 All right, Brightman gets the ball.
04:17 He gets to the defense, in the clear, and on his way.
04:21 [grunting]
04:22 [whistle blows]
04:25 [howling]
04:28 The ball's tossed into Kinney.
04:30 No, it's intercepted by West.
04:31 What a play.
04:32 He's in the clear.
04:33 Hold it.
04:36 Something's wrong.
04:37 And Berg leaves the game.
04:44 This is a real blow to the coach.
04:46 [music playing]
04:49 Number 17, Patton, goes in.
04:52 The ball's in play.
04:53 The defense closes in.
04:54 [howling]
04:55 [whistle blows]
04:56 Another PU man out on foul.
04:58 The coach looks worried.
05:00 [whistle blows]
05:01 He's losing a lot of good men.
05:02 Two more men going in.
05:03 There goes another one.
05:04 [gunshots]
05:05 And another.
05:06 [whistle blows]
05:07 The coach is in a tough spot.
05:08 [howling]
05:09 [music playing]
05:13 [music playing]
05:17 [gunshots]
05:27 Marat, you report to the referee.
05:28 All set to go again.
05:30 Gracie takes the ball out of bounds.
05:31 His men are covered.
05:32 What a battle we're witnessing tonight.
05:33 The score is UU35, PU34 with only one minute to go.
05:37 The ball is in the bandit.
05:38 It's passed to Gracie.
05:39 DeFrazier over to Kinney.

06:16 And it's in.
06:17 And the old ball game-- no, no, it's not.
06:19 Yes, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes.
06:24 Wow, what a beautiful defense.
06:26 He's open for a shot.
06:27 This might be it.
06:28 [cheering]
06:31 [music playing]
06:34 [whistle blows]
06:35 [music playing]
06:39 The seconds are rapidly disappearing.
06:41 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5--
06:47 Marathou shoots, and he's in.
06:50 I mean, it's in.
06:51 Yes, yes.
06:52 And there's the final gun.
