Followup 1941 21st district basketball tourney Some great details of the 1941 21st District Tournament: Glensfork beat Cub Run. Breeding upset Memorial. Columbia barely beat Knifley. And in the championship game, the Greensburg Dragons beat Horse Cave. All those details, and more, below: From Jim The February 12, 1941 Adair County News reported that William Carneal, who arrived at Columbia High School in the fall of 1940 as teacher and basketball coach, had resigned a few days earlier to accept a position with TVA in Mussel Shoals, Ala."The new position...is said to be a decided promotion." The March 5th edition gave the lineup for the first round of play on Friday, March 7th:
In the play-in game, Glensfork defeated Cub Run cagers 36-24, with Gwinn Acree tallying 16 points for the winners. Raymond Young scored 14 points Breeding upset Memorial 29-25 (Rayburn scored 16 for the victors); Columbia squeaked by Knifley 35-32 (Knifley's Audie Rich had 12, and for the Hunds, James Phelps got 10 points and Raymond Young poured in 14); Horse Cave eased by Munfordville 27-24; and Greensburg walloped Glensfork 46-19. Saturday's action saw Greensburg take care of business with a 38-22 win over Breeding (Nyle Reece scored 10 for the Breeding quintet); and, in a terrific battle between Horse Cave and Columbia the Cavemen pulled ahead by a single point with two minutes left, then outscored the Hounds to the final buzzer to claim a 29-25 victory. Jim Vaughn was hero for Greensburg in finals In the district championship game, Horse Cave held a one point lead in the waning seconds but Greensburg's Joe Vaughn hit one of two free throws to send the game into overtime and his teammate Gordon Coffey hit the only bucket in the OT period to seal the district championship 20-18. Two Adair countians were selected for the all-tournament team, Columbia's James Phelps and Knifley's William Rayburn. Nine teams shared in $353.17 net profits The March 12 News also reported that large crowds attended all the games and announced that according to Supt. T.C. Little, receipts totaled $617.50 and expenses totaled $264.33, leaving net proceeds of $353.17 to be distributed among the nine participating teams. (Tournament "season" tickets -- good for admission to all the games -- were $1.25 for adults and 75c for students, while single-game general admission tickets were 35c and 25c.) Incidently, the March 12 wrap-up of tournament play came from the pen of Charles R. Harris, grandson of Adair County News founder and long-time editor Charles "C.S." Harris.
