However, the team cou1dn't put together consistent games and ended up with a ten win and eight loss record. Dick Gillespie led the Pirate scoring with 195 points. Everett Eide, Jim Monroe, and George Ramberg topped the 100 point scoring mark. Following their victory in the first game of the season with the Aggies, the Pirates copped three more in a row before splitting even in their next four games. A loss to Warren started the Bucs on a five-game losing streak, including four North Valley games. Two Conference wins over Grafton and a win and a loss to Thief River Falls brought the Pirates up to a fourth place tie in the Conference standings. A victory over the Aggies closed the regular season. The 62 points rung up by the Bucs against Grafton was their best offensive effort of the year. Red Lake Falls dropped a 20 point decision in the first district contest, but the following night Warren eliminated the Bucs. Thief River Falls took consolation honors with a victory the next night. Nine of this year's squad were seniors so next year's team will be underclassmen, who will gain experience for the coming years. Central's B team dropped four one point decisions and a two point loss in compiling a season record of four wins and twelve losses. The seniors, playing with only five men, copped the interclass tournament by a wide margin over the juniors and a close one point edging of the sophomores. 44
