I Sl10'- V A The iunior varsity basketball team fin- ished the season with a record of 5-l5. Despite the record, this years i.v. squad had the most desire and spirit of any bas- ketball team at Friendly. They got off to a very slow start, losing their first five games by large margins. After Christmas work- outs they appeared to be a different team. They won their first two games after Christ- mas. Although they still lost some games, they were playing good basketball. Juniors Micky Shatly and Ron Saxton were the team leaders the first half of the season. The addition of Craig Stephanson at mid-season added leadership in the backcourt. Shatly, Saxton and Kent Woo- druff controlled the inside game for the Patriots while Stephanson played outside averaging 15.8 points a game. The off season program designed for the players by Coach Martin and Coach Meade should prove beneficial to the basketball program at Friendly.
