Three Western Slope c hampionships were in our grasp, but were lost to our ancient enemy, Gunnison. On the other hand, however, we have one slope title and the possibility of another. The close of the football season saw the Timers in second place with only one defeat registered against them and that by the champions. With only one back-Held and four line positions vacated by graduation, the season of 1922 should see the Tigers as Western Slope champions. The basketball season ended with the Tigresses safely entrenched as West Slope champions and claimants for the state title. The Tigers, after winning the Grand Valley Conference title, finished in third place at the Western Slope tournament. Track season had the best outlook in many years, and, although not living entirely up to expectations, was one of the most brilliant in the history of the school. While only second place was won at the West Slope meet and seventh place in the All-Western meet at Boulder, the Tigers have reason to be proud of their 1922 track record. In baseball, the least in the limelight of any athletic this year, the championship appears to be ours, as the Tigers have lost only one game so far.
