Basket Ball Records BOYS' TEAM The Dyersburg basketball team began their '26-'27 season on December 7th. They played steadily every week after this with an intermission for Christmas. The first game with Crockett Mills was a victory for D. H. S., thus starting the season well. Worthy was the star in this game. Their next victory was over Ridgely Hi. The time runs extended five minutes to play off the tie which resu.lted in the end. The game was played on Ridgely's own court and was especially satisfying because it was Dyersburg's first victory over Ridgely in several years. Burks and Fowlkes, forwards, played tine. Ridgely, seek- ing revenge, defeated D. H. S. two weeks later. Between these two games came the Maury City game, which was the first defeat for the Dyersburg boys. Hall and Palmer did good work on the defense in this game. , On January 22, Dyersburg was defeated by Friendship by eleven points. They suf- fered a defeat from Halls a week laterg Lauderbach doing nice work in this game. In the next game with Millsfield the boys came out of their slump and were victorious, doubling Millsfield's score. Dyersburg defeated Tiptonville next, not allowing them to score after the first quarter. On February 18-19, the district tournament was held here. There were twelve teams entered. Dyersburg was defeated by Maury City, a strong team which went to the finals. Trimble won the tournament from Maury City in a hard fought game. ' A I GIRLS' TEAM . The girls' basketball team of Dyersburg High School began the season as the boys did by playing Crockett 1VLills. The girls played on a foreign court though, and were beaten by a large score. This, however, did not discourage them and in the return game they held them to a two-point victory in a hard fought struggle on our own court. The next game was a victory for the D. H, S. over Spring Hill, the Dyersburg girls doubling their Score. Being encouraged by this victory, they fought through two more victories, one with Newbern, one of the foremost rivals, and one with Alamo, which is considered a very strong team. Alamo came back with a victory on their court the next week, defeating Dyersburg with as great score as they were beaten. In the next game, which was a return with Newbern, Dyersburg again romped on their rival, and kept up the good work by defeating Milan in the next game, which was played on the Dyersburg court. The girls then played Covington, one of our greatest basketball rivals, and defeated them with a good advantage in points. Martin, the next opponent, was defeated on our own court in a hard fought game. Then the girls suiered a break in their victories and lost to Troy and Obion, playing Obion a hard game in which' the O. H. S. girls were nearly beaten. Having been beaten by such a narrow margin, the girls prepared, and defeated Obion on the home court in the return game. On January 22, Covington came in for another defeat, losing by a large score. In the next two weeks Dyersburg suffered three defeats, although they were with the strong teams, Martin, Millsiield, and Union City. On February 11, Dyersburg defeated Tipton- ville by a good margin, and then began to prepare for the Tournament on February 25-26. Dyersburg was first pitted against Alamo and won, which sent t.hem to the semi-profes- sionals. They lost in the semi-inals to Crockett Mills, but by playing in the semi-finals were eligible to the West Tennessee Tournament at Jackson. , Page forty-nine
