This was the year that almost was This year was a disappointing year to me, from my standpoint we didn't play to our capability. We were weakest and lost some of our most important games from the free throw line, summed up Coach Bob Fry. Fulton compiled a 14-13 record, but there wasn't enough team work to make awinning team. Captain Greg Carter was voted most valuable player and best free throw shooter. Co-Captain Bobby Leverett was chosen best rebounder. Mike Strunk received the Chippy Ruth Memorial Award for the most improved player, and the Mickey Daffner award for the player with the most hustle went to Charles Dye.
