28 fVarsity Boys' Basketball Cagers End Season At 11-103 Go On To Take Regional Title With only one returning starter from last year, the season went well overall for the Varsity Boys' Basketball team. Despite the loss of many fine players to graduation, the team finished with an 11-10 record. The '77-'78 season was one of changes for the varsity team, as Heights competed in the 4A classification for the first time and was under the leader- ship of a new head coach, Steve Carmi- chael. In 4A competition, the team won victories at the McPherson tournament and went on to take the Regionals at Emporia, though their play in state competition was unsuccessful. Coach Carmichael felt that the seniors were the backbone of the team, and that the players showed progress and improve- ment in all areas. Toward the end of the season, they started playing real well together, he stated. Team members who received special recognition included Antoine Carr, '79, who made the first All-City Team and the 4A Second Team, and Winston Moore, '78, and Virgil Vaughan, '80, who received Honorable Mention.
