Losing season reward-fi'led Experience gained by Mike Zabel Each member of the team improved tremen- dously as the season pro- gressed. The team was ham- pered by the tact that ev- ery team they played was physically stronger, taller, and quicker than they. Be- cause of this, an incredi- ble amount of learning took place during the games and practice. The freshmen rarely lost a basketball game by more than 10 to 15 points. They beat Fiossville twice.
