Despite having a losing season the team en- ioyed a full season of cheering Pep Clubs, rout- ing student bodies, and close, exciting games. ln the first game of the Ak-Sar-Ben Tourna- ment, held in the Chieftain gym, Bellevue played their arch rival and defending Conference Champ- ions, Plattsmouth. From the sound of the first whistle, Bellevue took the ball and led all the way to a 60-53 victory. lr1l958 Omaha Holy Name defeated the Chiefs by some SO points, but the defending Class A State Champions had a surprise in for them when -347 the host team iBellevuej took the lead four diff- erent times. With 3 minutes and 30 seconds left in the game the Fighting Chieftains held the State Champs, to follow by only two points for a morale building 39-37 loss. Game Captain Bill Woodrow sank a free throw in the last two seconds to put the seal on a 36- 35 win over Fairbury. For his ball-handling and the winning point Bill was named the Star of The Week by the Omaha World Hearld. Pat Manrose's long shots, Terry Jack's cor- ner shots, Bill Woodrow's rebounding, Gary Thras- her's free throws, Woody Dismuke's iumps, and coach Wood's scribbled signals on his blackboard will all bring back memories of the i958-59 bas- ketball season.
