LEWIS SULLIVAN -Lard, versatile Red and White flash, whose return shortly after the campaign had begun, strengthened the squad to a great degree, was the second of the once-crowned insignia wearers from the '44 assemblage to merit the earning of his second letter, Sparkplug of the '45 consolation champs, this scintillating Red Devil hoop artist exhibited a classy brand of basketball throughout the sea- son to be highly instrumental in the team's success. Acrack shot from virtually any position, he was a key man in the effective slow break employed by the Glenwoodites, aside from being one of the trickiest passers in the league. Returning for action with Coach Igo's I946 aspirants, Sully shows promise of being one of the most highly- heralded stars to be ejected from the Glenwood athletic plant, HAROLD VAUGHAN-Horny, stalwart Red and White cage star whose freshman year in basketball circles proved sensational, was one of the highly-talented members of the basketball squad who per- formed brilliantly at frequent intervals in A squad competition to earn his chenile G. A constant threat in the point-production de- partment due to an unusally accurate pivot shot. Horny shows pro- mise of being the scourge of Colorado River Valley Hoopsters in the '46 campaign. Highly praised defensive tactics plus his usual blazing floor game combine to add prestige to his starring next year, a prog- nostication which he will most likely prove. JIM WEAVER-Weav, lanky Red Devil defensive genuis who was the sophomore sensation of the '44-'45 season: played unerring ball in all contests to emerge as one of the brightest hardwood prospects of the circuit and the only sophomore Demon cager to letter at the spheroid game. He was incomparable as a rebound artist, his long arms coordinating perfectly with his agile leaps to retrieve the ball off either backboard to set the offensive maneuvers in action. A set shot specialist, Weav banged frequent, buckets in the clutch to increase his value. Only a sophomore, Jim is tagged hy eminent hoop authorities as a potential star, a billing which he will probably prove in his next two years ot prep competition. KEITH ZERBE-Zeb, speciaizing as a long-shot artist and passing genuis, sparkling prep ace of the B squad performed consistently for the Red and White to letter at the hardwood game. A deceptive passer and play maker deluxe, Zeb was an important cog in the B squad machine aside from being a dangerous varsity menace to oppo- sing clubs. Generalling the team to unptedicted heights, Zeb's ambid- extrous ability was a factor in the team's conquest of the consolation crown in the Wesern Slope dribble derby. His talents will be capitil, ized next year as a member of Coach Igo's '46 charges.
