GIRLS' BASKETBALL The season of 1927-28 was one of the most successful in the annals of Andover basketball history. The season opened with an extraordinary amount of spirit and a large number of candidates for the team. Three varsity players, Thelma Hartz, Ruth Gay and Nellie Hartz, have gone since last season. Their places were filled with able players. Those on the varsity team this year were Dot Mu1'ray, Betty Bishop, Anna Ogram, Ana Gay, Claribell Steen, Mildred Bailey and Frances Miner as honorary cap- tain. Second team was made up of Arda Mason, La Dell Mead, Ruth Hill, Irene Reed and Frances Cleland. Those getting nu- merals for their help in practice and the second team were Lyla and Lyda Loe and Elizabeth Bailey. Miss Boord was the coach and did fine work in training and bringing her team to victory. The team itself this year showed excel- lent spirit, sportsmanship and team work throughout the season. The players started out the season by winning their first schedf uled game from Williamsfield. By hard practice and physical development the entire squad grew into a faster and better skilled team. During the season the girls lost only one county scheduled game. They received 219 points to their opponents' 184. The coach was especially encouraged this season with prospects of some new material for next year's squad. The second team played several games and Won from New Lyme and Espyville. On several occasions the coach had opportunity to try out some of the reserves and they succeeded in mak- ing an excellent showing. The crowning event of the season, of course, was the winning of the annual county tournament. It happened that the Andover girls drew Rome for their first game which was played off Feb. 19. The game was rather slow and although An- dover easily succeeded in winning over their opponents their playing was not all indicta- tive of what to expect the following Satur- day. The first game played the next week was with Williamsfleld. It was a close, hard- fought game all the way through. After winning that, however, the girls entered the finals against Orwell. Never did the'girls display such marvelous teamwork as they did then and their playing was superb. The game was the most exciting of the wholc tournament, and the Andover girls winning by a score of 26-21 brought home the first 9-0-000000 0 Q Q 440404-G0-G0-0-0-0-QQQO-QQ Q-Q pennant the basketball girls have ever won.
