Faced with a green and unseasoned squad, Coach Carr brought his junior varsity cagers along slowly, and their strong showing and development as the season pro- gressed is evidence of their work and seasoning. From the B varsity, several achieved berths on the varsity and give fine promise for next year. Durrell Emling led the Scotties in scoring this season, scoring 72 points while playing in only seven of the eight games. Other players giving strong promise for next year and showing improvement during the year were Jack Heimforth, Carl Wickham, Mur- ray Hanna, Paul French, and Jack Hensel. Max Tullis was a valuable asset this season, but has been lost to the army, and he cannot be counted on for the next season's prospects. Late in the season Bill LaPaugh strengthened the Scotties' roster, but, being a senior, will not be back for varsity play next year. The Scotties played their strongest game in downing the Cental Michigan Bearkittens in their last game ot the season, 49-43. With the varsity losing four of the starting quintet, Coach Macdonald will Iook to this group for the material which will supple- ment his championship squad when they start the defense of their title next season. With the two Howe brothers, Jack and Bob, Silvio Fortino, Rocky Walker, Gayle Sax- ton, Durrell Emling, Carl Wickman, Paul French, and Jack Heimforth returning from this year's varsity, Coach Macdonald will have a formidable group around which to build his 1942-1943 aggregation.
