Basketball Hoopsters Swish Though Season by Matt Wester The year proved to be an excellent one for the JV Boys ' Basketball Squad. After starting out slow with a 1- 3 record, team unity and strong efforts helped turn the season into a record tying performance. By finishing 13-6, they tied the record for the best JV basketball season ever. For the third year, the eleven member team was coached by Dan Whitfield. Led by co-captains Bob McCarty and Steve Schekel, the basketball team developed a large amount of unique team spirit and unity. The most valuable players on the 1986 squad were Steve Schekel and Dave Marcinkowski. Other key players on the team were Tim Vanas and Scott Kang who provided an excellent defen- sive block. This JV basketball team, like many others, had its high and low points of the season. Losing 3 of its first 4 games was a low point for the team, but by working harder they were able to beat the first place team, undefeated Ferndale, and finish with an awesome record. This squad had special comeback potential, after rebounding from injuries by Bob Teaching ability, in- stensity, and dedication to the program has been the key to our success.

The success of the team came from a strong will to work, team unity, hard defense work, and superb bench play. Tim Vanas pointed out, Many of our key games were won by hard earned bench players. Coach Dan Whitfield pinpointed the success of the ' 86 squad. Teaching ability, intensity, and dedica- tion to the program has been the key to our success. Knowing the right play to make in tight, pressure point situations was a unique characteristic displayed by the squad. This team has been a favorite of Coach Dan ' s because there was less talent, but with hard work they were able to succeed. Co-Captain Bob McCarty explained his feelings on being a team member. The hardest thing is staying mentally and physically ready at all times; this years ' s squad was able to master the mind game.

nickel and Dime Five ' Pay Off With Victories by Chris Raymond A nickel and dime record is one that doesn ' t produce great dividends, especially when the nickel represents the number of victories and the dime the total defeats for the year. But despite its 5-10 mark, the Fresh- man Basketball Team was definitely not shortchanged in the great strides it made after overcoming a rocky start. This season was a real learning experience, noted starter Matt Newton who, along with his teammates, suffered through seven losses out of their first eight contests. Two of those defeats included a 39-22 beating by league powerhouse Southfield and a 38-20 whipping by Ferndale. We were all down after the first eight games, said guard Dave Palmer. But after a coaching change in midsea- son, with Gary Chamberlain and Dan Whitfield taking over the duties, the cagers rebounded to record three straight wins over Berkley, Beecher and Andovcr. Despite experiencing another losing streak, the team played on a more competitive level and ended the season by trouncing Andover, 66-29. The team ' s competitive spirit and willingness to practice hard were a plus throughout the year. Point guard John O ' Brien displayed his leadership, espe- cially during the second half of the season. Big men Jeff Lynn and Jason Redwine banged the offensive and defensive boards repeatedly to snag rebounds and pour in vital buckets. Smooth-shooting Jay Talbert gave much needed offensive firepower to his team with his deadly outside jumpers. We were really starting to get things going, said O ' Brien who was disap- pointed that the season had to end just when the team was about to reel off another winning streak. But one thing will always be remem- bered about this year ' s nickel and dime freshmen five. They gave every- one their money ' s worth! Jay Tauber hustles for a loose ball in a game against Groves. Tauber ' s bard working attitude and dedication were a plus for the team all year long. photo by Paul Donar at Doing things right and playing as a team is important; there is no T in team.
