Spartan Cagers Taste Victor wil e , W 1,5 f.1f??-31 For the first time in over three seasons the Spartan bas- ketball squad got its first taste ofvictory, posting an eight win and eleven loss record. The Spartan crew got off to a respectable start logging victories in four oftheir first sev- en games, One game being probably the suspenseful cliff- hanger of the season, was against West, where after four periods of equal play the Spartans were deadlocked 62-62 with overtime play inevitable. Two overtimes later the mighty Spartans walked off the court with their second defeat by only a single point dificit. Eight games later, Memorial hosted the Regents to a 65-63 defeat before a more-than-capacity Spartan crowd, giving them their de- sired revenge. The other standout performance was the Spartans out-hustling victory over powerful Janesville Craig, the l974 Big 8 Co-championsf Oddly enough, this occurred for the second consecutive year, as the Craig cheerleaders and spectators slumped out of Memorial, dazed and teary-eyed. Most Valuable Team Member, Mark Smidebush, led the Spartans throughout the season along with the hustle of Steve Roberts, Terry Breuscher, Dave Cater Cates, and sharpshooter Tony Nuzzo e who were all honorary Captains. Most Improved Player honors went to Steve Roberts and Tony Boner Nuzzo. The Most Valuable and Most Improved Juniors were John Galligan and Mitch I-lagens respectively. lO6 Y ,,. 'J 0 IT' . ,,f S .
