BOYS BASKETBALL Boys' basketball at Centura in 1979-1980 was a frustrating experience for players, coaches, and fans. Fighting a tough road schedule and equally tough opposition, the Centurions finished a winless 0-16. Senior captain Ron Bolander and Junior captain Mark Lemburg were scoring leaders while Ron and so- phomore Brent Bolander were rebound- ing pace-setters under the direction of Coach C. H. Hagstrom. The Centurion Junior Varsity coached by Bill Brown, finished 2-10. Paced by Juniors Godfrey Brokenrope and Doran Moss, and sophomores Rich Lemburg and Chris Sinner, the JV's gained valuable experience for the coming seasons. Centura's freshman logged a 3-3 win-loss record while dropping two contests by one point. Chris Schaffer and Brad Powers paced the freshman in scoring, brightening the future for Centurion Basketball. VARSITY BACK ROW: Mr. Hagstrom. Stacey McHargue. Dana McDowell. Dave Was- kowiak.

GIRLS BASKETBALL 24 As each year’s seniors graduate, the next year's team is challenged to rebuild and mold together as one unit. With varying levels of experience from the players, the development of team leadership, confidence, trust, poise, enthusiasm and desire is an important growth of every team. Helping to provide this growth were six seniors: Pam Jantzi. Tam Jantzi. Brenda Kerzman. Linda Nelson. Louise Nelson, and Nancy Swanson. Underclassmen who also helped the team's growth and who also lettered were: Melissa Christensen. Kellie Stienike, Darra Hadenfeldt. Kathy Kuszak. Deb Plejdrup. and Leann Veeder. Finishing the season with a varsity record of 3-12 and a Reserve record of 2-7. both squads worked on improving their mental game as well as their physical game. The highlight of the Varsity season came when we upset Burwell in the semi-finals of the conference. Louise Nelson was named to the all conference team and Darra Hadenfeldt earned the honor of honorable mention. Louise led the team in scoring and in rebounding by getting fifteen points and rebounds r steals with 43, third in points with 8, and first in free throws with 25 in points. Kellie Stienike was second in scoring with 7 and second in rebounds with 8. Nancy Swanson was third in rebounds with 7 a game.
