This year the Marauders improved greatly over the previous two years. The Cagers ended the season by tying with Wasson for second place in the South Cen- tral League. ln the first of six pre-league games, the netters captured wins against Arvada, Bear Creek, Greeley West, and Cheyenne Mountain consecutively. The Ma- rauders were ranked second in the state at this time. They started the S.C.L. season after falling to Man- ual and Greeley Central by losing to top-ranked Cen- tennial. The Cagers bounced back to defeat Harrison in a non-league game and narrowly fell to Wasson in a league game. Being tied with Palmer for last place after these defeats, the Marauders pulled themselves out of the cellar by defeating Palmer and were back on the track. After beating Palmer, the netters defeated Pueblo East, Fort Morgan, and Pueblo South to put themselves in third place in the S.C.L. ln the last game of the season, the Marauders de- feated the Trinidad Miners by a margin of fourteen points. The Cagers went on to compete in the newly organized league tournament. ln the league tournament the Marauders earned third place by beating Trinidad, 70 to 50, falling to Centennial 81 to 78, and defeating South 65 to 55.
