There xx ere enough girls out for three teams, with 1 W vim, vigor and vitality, determined to make this a successful year. ll 1 The Pantherettes won every league game except the first one, F which was played with Kirk on Flagler's court. This loss was due N to inroads of flu. By winning all the other games on their schedule A 1 they were eligible to enter the League Tournament, in which they de- -W E feated successively Hugo 34-10, Arriba 23-13, and Stratton 51-9. 4 W The last game, played on Vona's floor, March 7, decided the cham- l , pionship of Southeastern Colorado League. This is the first time in the history of our school that Flagler has won the League Cup. That succeeding teams may make this cup a permanent possession through , two more successful seasons, is the ardent wish of everyone. V The champions of this league were scheduled to meet the cham- H rl pions of Douglas-Elbert county league at Limon, March 9. Flagler f Q was successful in Winning this game also with a score of 32-9. This entitled them to play in the State semi-final, which was with gp l' Las Animas. It was one of the fastest girls' games ever seen by l ll many Flagler supporters and will long be remembered as a REAL lk basketball game. The Flagler girls had the Trojanettes either tied, or in their lead, , 1 throughout three quarters of the game, and at one time were nine T points ahead, when it looked as if they would surely Wing but a cyclone finish of the Las Animas sextette in the last quarter completely over- ll whelmed the Pantherettes and succeeded in snatching the game from , the fire, making the final count 34-30 in favor of Las Animas. This team won the State Championship in the final game, against Brush. The team was coached by Mr. McKinley and captained by Lu- la it L H EV- ' nie as sw - --W .Ere t,g-easier?-i -ag -
