F ro h asketball The Frosh Basketball team had a very thriving sea- son. The players may have been young, but it never hindered their performances. The team was unoffi- cially led by Greg Fields, guard. Another good player is Dean Russu. The big man in the middle is Scott Miller. Greg Ritter showed his shooting and rebounding skills in the second half. Hugh DiPretore played forward well scoring several points a game. The team, led by Phil Iennings and assisted by Greg Adkins, finished off the year with a tremendous showing of 7 and 3 in the league. Coach Iennings and Adkins attributed the suc- cess of the team to stronger discipline during practice than in the past seasons. In the opinion of one coach, the team had a tough time because of scarity of height. Exceptional skill in rebounding and a good offense that improved as the season progressed were the team's strongest points. 66 X FROSH BASKETBAI I

Basketball 43- Y I 6 y ul ii A QL iw f E, 'af ffhlvrrf ,anon -mv- W .0 51111 ff . , .. .... . 7? -Ni ' Btu After 2 years of coaching I.V. Basketball, coach Ioe Gomez led his team to their second championship. Yes, Coach Gomez is amazing, but he could not have done it without players like Ion Haar, Chris Monroe, Ion Oatey, Tim Ander- son and Leonard Iones. Along with other outstanding con- tributors like Mike Ellensohn and Mike Domke, the Knights couldn't help winning. Ion I-laar led the I.V.'s from his forward position, in scoring and rebounding and Mike Ellensohn did a superb job at the guard position utilizing his fine shooting touch. Leonard Iones, alias Fleetfoot Iones, did an excellent job of dribble breaking presses and making moves Walter Davis would be proud of. Freshman Ion Oatey also did an unbelievably consistent job of rebounding and shooting. Look out Lutheran and Brethren, Mr. Oatey has three years left. Last, but certainly not least is swingman Chris Monroe. Chris exhibited amaz- ing hustle, this, blended with fine shooting and rebounding made Chris the best sixth man in the league. But, no team would be complete with the men who come off the bench. Players such as Matt MacArthur, Todd Brooks, Pete Cerlach, filled their most difficult job as any champion- ship players would. With most of this I.V. team advancing to Varsity we hould have a good Varisty squad in years to come. Good luck guys. I. V. BASKFTBALL I 65
