B Team FIRST ROW: Left to Right: Mickey McCarthy, Bobbie Lordson, Roger Roe, Fred Rye, Kenneth Stevenson, Iunior McConkey. SECOND ROW: Coach Ken O'Connor, Gerald Leach, Wayne Harrison, Don McConkey, Barry Sims, lim Lockhart, Bernard Laloie, Statistician lim Batho, Student Manager, Milford Galer. The B's have had one of their most successful seasons in many years. The team has been very successful on its own floor. The team lost more away games than home games, but this can be expected. The ability to play on opponents courts comes with experience. The members of the team gained much experience, which will be of great help when they move to the varsity in the coming years.

l l Varsity Basketball LEFT TO RIGHT: Bill Wallis, Gerald Wallis, Ted O'Brien, Duane Ames, Don Stevenson, Iohn Cottle, Terry Gough, Bill Clegg, Iaynce Leach, Reg Rye, Ronnie Leach, Coach Webster Morrison, Student Manager, Milford Galer. The basketball team had one of its poor seasons finishing in sixth place in the Little Eight Conference. The 1955-56 addition of the team had the second best offensive average that any former Pickford team ever had, but its defensive average, the worst of any Pickford team, tells the story why so many games were lost. Don Stevenson is the team's leading scorer, averaging about 20 points per game. Duane Ames is second in scoring. Duane also has the team's best shooting average. This page was presented by I. C.
