Under Coach Warkentin’s di¬ rection the Acettes were moulded into a winning team. A first game loss failed to upset the Acettes. Hard work pushed the Acettes on to the semi-finals with only a record of 7 wins and 3 losses. Naturally, elimination by a three point loss to Lowe Farm on a two-game total point series was very dis¬ appointing. Apart from this the season was satisfactory. Because the annual league tournament had been dropped, future tournaments would be invitational. Here the Acettes met with some success emerging as conso¬ lation winners at the Steinbach tournament. They lost to Winkler in the first round and defeated Steinbach in the consolation event. The profit from a Bake Sale at the Braun Drug Store, plus a grant from the council and a loan from Mr. Warkentin, which was paid back by another Bake Sale, provided the team with new uniforms. Sweaters were also purchased by all the Acettes and a few cheerleaders. Unfortunately, the team will suffer a set back with the loss of Margaret Loewen, Betty Friesen, and Jayne Friesen in 1965-66. However, many of the younger players are anxiously waiting for the chance to prove their ability. We’re looking forward to a bright future. 39
