'I2-ill, BUT We Siill I-lad Fun Judging by Their record, The BearcaTs didn'T seem To have a very impressive season. However, any- one who wenT To a ballgame This year couldn'T help buT be impressed by The 'CaTs. WiTh probably The besT back-courT in Their region Cseniors David Ishma- el and Darin Youngj and an excellenT fronT-courT lineup Qseniors Denver Sumner and Lynn Wells and junior Tim Skaggsj, mosT fans jusT couldn'T under- sTand why The 'Cais didn'T win more games. Darin, who direcTed The courT and led The Team in assisTs Q8 or more per gamej, said iT like iT was: We jusT couldn'T play The whole game. We'd run in spurTs, and we were aT our besT we were unsToppo- ble. BuT when we weren'T iT was usually a long nighT. David echoed Darin's ThoughTs. lf we had only Two or Three more poinTs here or There we could have had a really good season, he said, buT we sTill had a fun year. We goT along TogeTher and did everyThing as a Team. ln sporTs, ThaT's whaT counTs. And when iT comes To sporTs, especially baskeT- ball, David knows whaT he's Talking abouT. David, The Team capTain and floor general, lead The Team in scoring - shooTing in double figures every game. Proving his prowess aT The chariTy sTripe, senior cenTer Denver Sumner gains anoTher poinT for The 'CaTs. Denver was deadly aT The freeThrow line This year, shooTing 7196 for The season. 44 - BaSkeTbaII BoTh Darin and David proved Their abiliTy by be- ing elecTed To The All-DisTricT Team. BuT Anderson had anoTher all-DisTricT member, The biggesT sur- prise of The season, senior forward Lynn Wells. Lynn surprised many people This season, said Coach Cheatham. And ThaT was a big undersTaTe- menT. Lynn noT only proved To be a valuable ouT- side shooTer - ranking second in poinTs scored for The Team - buT he also led The Team aT The free- Throw line - shooTing 7596from The chariTy sTripe. AnoTher new face in The permanenT varsiTy line-up This year was ThaT of senior cenTer Denver Sumner. Denver came of age This season and, even Though This was his firsT solid year of varsiTy play, he made his presence under The boards known. Denver was one of The Top scorers and freeThrow shooTers, noT To menTion rebounders, on The Team. Denver and Lynn boTh had some big shoes To fill, said Coach Cheatham, buT They boTh did excellenT jobs all season. The Team didn'T have lasT year's record, buT iT was one of The closesT Teams l've ever coached. Pleasing The 'iLiTTle Fans comes easy for senior mascoT Chip Carpenfer. I jusT love making The kids smile, said Chip. lnsTrucTing his senior varsiTy Team during a Time ouT aT a scrim- mage game, Head Coach Larry Cheaiham plans his sTraTegy.
