The Tigers were crowned Big Six conference champion by defeating all of the teams in the league twice during the season. During the Christmas and New Year vacation, the Blue and Gold participated in two invitational tournaments: One at Bryant, in which they won consolation honors, and the other at rome, where they were victorious. In February the Tigers went on a road trip, defeating Cavour but los- ing to Iroquois in the Huron arena. At the Big S-ix tourney at Milbank in January, the Tigers won runner- up honors by defeating South Shore 35-28 and Goodwin 69-38. They lost to Summit in the finals 45-53. The Hilltoppers won the District 9 championship by defeating Revillo '71-44, Florence 62-49, and South Shore in the finals 53-42. This gave the Tigers a berth in the Region 3 playoff at Clear Lake in which they drf-.r-ned the first game to Hayti 4:2-57. Cecil Larson was awarded the free-throw trophy at the athletic banquet. Last year it was Won by Walter Lundberg. Coach Ole Lather is in his second year as mentor of the Strandburg Tigers. A trophy case is being presented to the school as a g'ft of the Class of '53.
