Chieftains Finish Season 8-12 The 1972-73 Varsity Basketball team finished the season with a record of eight wins and twelve losses. They had some very tough opponents, playing excellent basketball in wins over jackson, Clackamas, Port Angeles, Fort Vancouver, R.A. Long, Evergreen and Mark Morris. Some high points of the season were the 60-59 wins over jackson and Morris. The jackson game was very exciting as the Chieftains hung on to win their opening game of the year. In the Mark Morris game sophomore jeff Smith tumed defeat into victory as he scored at the buzzer bringing the C.R. fans running out of the stands. Some of the low points were john Watson's broken foot, Mark Smith's broken leg, and Steve Berndt's broken wrists. Despite injuries the Chieftains continued to play with power and skill throughout the season. Senior forward Rob Keranen was one of the top three scorers in the league this year as he scored a total of 318 points. Rob was also the top rebounder on the team with 130. Senior Byron Loomis was behind Keranen in team scoring as he scored 130 points and was a starter throughout the year. Steve Berndt was third in scoring as he hit an amazing 64.696 of his shots for 129 points. Don Hall was fourth in scoring with 120 points and led the team in assists in 55.
