The whole team was really intense both on offense and defense. We came out ready to win and that ' s exactly what we did! Freshman Chris Facione commented on what he thought was the greatest moment for the freshman basketball team this year. That wasn ' t the only good thing about the team this year. They had five excellent starting players who led the team to a record of 8 and 6. These players included: Scott Tomko. Chris Facione, Cameron Carter, Eddie Keller, and Michael Flanna. The team also felt that the coaching staff, led by Tom Hays and Mel Hudson, did an excellent job. They were great. stated Cameron Carter, They were more like friends than coaches. The team learned alot this year about working together and playing as a team. They also have much to look forward to in the future. Freshman Scott Tomko commented, I look forward to playing varsity and winning a league championship. Reaching Goals At the end of a disappointing season, the boys Sophomore basketball team posted a record of 3-11 in league and 6-15 overall. Although feelings among players were mixed, they agreed that the season as an entirety was a let down. We were beaten by 40 points at least 5 times. I think if we would have played with more intensity, we could have at least been a .500 team, commented Chuck Newvine. It was frustrat- ing not being able to win as many games as we had hoped, added Todd Still. Also, the Sophomore team acquired two new coaches this sea- son, Gary Raya and Dave Pickney. This may have contributed a small part to the team ' s misfortune. Even though our record was below our expectations, we still had a very good team. Hopefully, a lot of the guys will continue to play because there was a lot of talent on our team. Offensive- ly, we were led by Dave Pierce and Charlie Stevens, Defensively, Rob Carrington gave us a lot of key steals and forced a good amount of turnovers, concluded Stitt, Looking Toward The Future Beginning the season with a slow start was one thing that temporarily held back the JV basketball team this year. As freshmen, the team went undefeated, so losing their first game was a dissappointing setback that caused the team ' s record to be 2 and 5 at the start. Through much determination, hard work, and alot of practice, the team made and outstanding comeback to win the last 5 out of 7 games, The team started off slow, commented sophomore Curt Behle, we expected too much because of our record last year, Another asset to help the team was their ability to work well together. At first everyone wanted to be a superstar and we didn ' t work well with each other, but at the end of the season we came together. stated sophomore James Byers. All of the players have a positive attitude and have many goals for the next seasons. Sophomore Sean Shedlock commented I look forward to making varsity and winning GIF , The team this year was led by coach Johnny Johnson and assistant coach Marvin Therman. Our coach related to us well and we love him , added Behle, we were one bonzai team!
