Why did they even keep score?

[Mark Padgett]

The Oregon City girls HS varsity, usually ranked among the top teams in the country, played an exhibition game against a traveling team from Norway last night. Oregon City won 63-11. They held the visitors to two points each in the first, second and fourth quarters. Norway scored five in the third - wow! Top scorer for the visitors was Sigrid Skorpen with five points. Oregon City played all 12 players.

I wonder if the team from Norway is going to blame this on having to play NF rules. Maybe they came out on the court and said, "Hey - where's the trapezoid?" - in Norwegian, of course (anyone who can provide the Norwegian translation for this statement, please do).

Seriously, I bet those girls from Norway are having a great time and I think it's cool that they came over here to do this.

No, they were busy in trying to remember if four feet are a yard and seventeen inches are a foot; or are the figures different?
