IF ONLY SAHARA WERE IN THE OTHER DIVISION
If Sahara (73-49) was in the SouthEast, they would be enjoying an 8 game lead. But instead, they find themselves 2.5 back in the NorthEast behind front running Harlem (76-47). The Jihad's resurgeance can be traced directly to a pre-season trade with the North Dallas 40, which got them George Blaeholder, who has 13 wins. Meanwhile, Pawtucket (54-66) and Fremont (51-73) have benn relegated to fighting it out for last place.Montgomery (65-59) have turned a close race into a commanding lead of Hattiesburg (59-62). St Louis (55-65) is eight games back, with North Dallas (57-69) just a game behind them. But any chance North Dallas had at making a late-season run took a serious blow when Heinie Meine went out for the year with a sore arm.
