A REVIEW OF THE ATHLETIC SEASON By Coach Smith IN REVIEW of the entire athletic program for 1930'31, one could say that Bexley has won more than her share of honors. In Central Buckeye League competition, Bexley has tied for the football championship, won the track, and swimming cham- pionships, and has an outstanding tennis team. This leaves only basketball and golf in which no honors were taken. Bexley is the only member of the Central Buck- eye League that has a baseball team. Our team averaged about 50% of all games played. The baseball team was not outstanding but kept plug- ging away and improving but could only finish at about the 500% mark for the season. In league competition Bexley won one major championship and tied for another out of three possible championships in football, basketball and track, and took honors in two of the three minor sport championships. The football team was a much better than aver- age team as evidenced by six victories, two de- feats, and one tie in rather keen competition. The basketball team won only four out of thirteen games and was considered rather weak, in light of games won and lost, but four of those games were lost by a single basket. This shows that the team was almost as strong as its opponent but not quite strong enough to put over victory. The track team was the strongest track team Bexley has had in years. It was ex- ceptionally strong in some events and well balanced in all others so that it was unde- feated in competition in its own class. The swimming team was very good. In the league meet they collected 41 out of a possible 60 points to win the championship easily. However, the team bowed to Green- field High, 41-23. The tennis team was the strongest in years and was not defeated at the time of this writing. The golf team with nearly all new players, experienced difficulty in winning very many matches. So in view of all the sports we should say that Bexley athletes were not highly successful but-successful enough to cause the class of 1931 to be proud of them and to remember some of their outstanding performances for a long time.
