AZTECS PLACE FIFTH I LE GLIE This year the Boys Varsity Bas- ketball team completed their season with a 5 and 9 record which placed them fifth in their league. The Aztecs showed ex- ceptional talent with Ross Har- vey and Rob Nay recognized as the team leaders and Most Valu- able Players. The team's record was affected by the inexperience of their younger players. As 98 Boy s Varsity Basketball Coach Kurt Kersten said, A poor field goal percentage placed a heavy priority on good shot selection with this group. M.V.P. Rob Nay was one of the leading performers on the team. He established a new record in the rebounding section, averag- ing 8 or more a game. He assist- ed in the win over Katella in the closing seconds. The defeat of Katella was the team's biggest thrill. Another thrill was beating the Aztecs rival, El Dorado. The most disappointing game was the game lost to Pacifica by one basket in overtime. Ross Harvey was voted into All Tourney Can- yon and will most likely be voted All County second team.
