I would sincerely like to thank Mr. Wellard, Mr. Searle, and Angus Campbell for faithfully coaching our hockey team this year. Although we have not been tremendously successful, we have shown vast improvement over last year. Our greatest moment came when we defeated previously undefeated Sturgeon Creek. Although we lost the majority of our games, it was by small margins. The team, while enjoying themselves, gave the league runners a run for their money. This year, we participated in a different league from previous years. It made a nice change from the familiar faces of the years before. With a few new men in the line up next year, we should have a championship team.

The team was made up of one Senior team member and a number of bas¬ ketball and non-team” players. In the first game Young was over confident and lost 2-1 to a clumsy, inept Hamber team. John Kiddell scored the luckiest goal with a shot from just over the red line which went into the top left hand corner of Leatherdale’s net. Young then beat Richardson 3-1, and on Friday, Hamber and Richardson went to Bison Gardens hock¬ ey rink at the University of Manitoba. Here Hamber easily won 6 f to retain its title. BACK ROW: Colquahoun, Fulton, Klassen, Francis, Van Haren. FRONT ROW: Jackman, Gardner, Magnus. Horn Hodmf Junior house hockey got under way this year with Richardson and Hamber battling for a win. Hamber won 2-1 in sudden death overtime. Then Hamber took on a decidely superior Young House team who won 13-2. At Bison Gardens at the University of Manitoba, Young also trounced Richardson 10-0. Through Young did not by quite a convincing score as last year, the spirit of all three houses was high and all the games were a lot of fun.

Sam S$ ukd d BACK ROW: Cottick, Francis, Mr. Petrencik, Rider, Lemon. FRONT ROW: Fraser, Meredith, MacDonald, Gargett, Wilson. This year’s senior basketball team, under the coaching of Mr. Petrencik, had a very successful season. The starting five of Brian Ryder, Paul Wilson, Ian Fraser, Doug MacDonald, and Craig Francis combined to form a solid defence, but an inconsistant offence kept us from reaching great heights. With constant practice and coaching the team seemed to improve game by game. We finished second behind M.B.C.I. in our league, which also included St. Paul’s, United College, and St. Boniface College. In the play-offs, we first played St. Boniface in a two game total point series. The team played well and won both games 36-33 and 57-39. We were outclassed by M.B.C.I. in the finals and lost 68-18. So ended a very successful and enjoyable season for the S.J.R. Senior Basketball Team. SJR vs St. Vital Y . SJR vs St. Paul’s . . SJR vs Old Boys . . SJR vs Old Boys . . SJR vs Old Boys . .
