The '64-'65 Santa Clara basketball team preserved for the eighth year the tradition of remaining unbeaten in league competition. This year's team and their coach brought the total to 82 straight league wins. The team was led and inspired by three powerful seniors. George Hansen, our leading scorer, was well appreciated for his ability to come down with rebounds. Mike O'Brien's power and fast reactions provided a constant encouragement to his team- mates. Paul Miller was always there with a long shot from the out- side whenever the opposition got rough. Kurt Kenney and Center, Pete Orozco, were the easiest players to spot on the court because of their size. Crowd-pleasing guards, Regi Brazell and Tom Westervelt, gave our games lots of flash. Although our final game at Simi resulted in defeat, our brief stay in AA Classification indicated to everyone what an out- standing team we had. Our gratitude and appreciation are extended to our hard- working Coach and team in a mighty well done. i Mike gets up to help George sink-in another basket.
