Senior Jim Clesson fires a shot over Dos Pueblos defender. Calvin Simmons goes up for rebound in 67-49 victory over Lompoc. Sparkling Season Ruined By Heartbreak Losses John Brown shoots perfect layup in closing seconds of the game. Dropping their final three games by a total of eight points, the Cabrillo Conquistadore basketballers found heartbreaks aplenty and the good breaks few in number as they closed an outstanding season on a dismal note. lt was the finest year of any Cabrillo cage team as the squad rolled to a 15-9 overall record and finished the season as the 14th ranked team in the CIF A-AA ratings. But the final three defeats kept the Conquista- dores from their first basketball championship and landed them in third place in the County League race. Up until Tuesday night, February 13, the club was still in good position for that coveted championship and a berth in the CIF playoffs. But it was that night that the poised San Marcos Royals shot down the Conquistadors 88-86, in a nerve-wracking double overtime marathon at the iam-packed Cabrillo gym. Then, with that fickle Lady Luck still eluding the Cabrillo team, the Conquistadores suffered disappointing last-second losses to Lompoc C77-735 and Santa Maria C61-59D to close out the year. Among the highlights of the big year, the Conquista- dores captured the Consolation Championship at the annual Quartz Hill Christmas Tournament at Lancaster. Jim Clesson and Randy Norris teamed up to pace the squad to victories over Apple Valley, Murphy, and Hart High to garner the title.
