First Basketbal The 78-79 basketball season was the sort of season that makes your insides clench when you think about it; the sort that makes you want to shout obscenities and then scrawl them on the wall; that makes you want to throw basketballs through the dining hall windows. It was very frustrating. At the start of the season, with fresh young players and equally fresh new warm-ups, the potential for success was great. The results and performances in the first few games bore this out. Against U.C.C, S.AC, and especially St. Georges, the team play£d with boundless energy and desire. It seemed that with a little matura- tion and concentration, the team could have gone on to play bril- liant basketball. It was that early, that the screw of frustration was first turned and it continued to be turned tighter , and tighter until the end of the season. Fatigue, injury, illness, Northward Bound, the shock of losing Mr. Martin, the further FRONT ROW: Boyle, Casey, Leggat, Pritchard, Goddard. BACK ROW: Mr. Larsen, Ho, Wood, Thompson, Da Re, O ' Driscoll.

The defencemen had size to of- fer and Jeff Hughes, Tom Husebye, Rich Jobin, Randy Sopini ;a, Scott Guthrie and Steve Petersen hit hard all season. This defence proved to be quite strong but they had to be reminded that hitting doesn ' t win hockey games. The goaltending was fairly steady, considering that much of the time it was a shooting gallery and our three goalies (D. Bryant, S. Weisbaum, J. Charron) played well. These are the people on the ice, but what about our mild- mannered, rational coach behind the bench, the guy who put up with our mistakes without flinch- ing. When someone did make a mistake he would quietly take them aside and tell them not to do it again. During the season we had our ups and downs but overall it was a fun season. Thanks guys. Randy Sopinka

shock of losing Bob Hamilton and the inability to adjust to the me- thods of Frank Kinder all com- bined to change what had been a sharp and enthusiastic side into a generally ineffective one. It was a disappointing and frus- trating season. It was so not be- cause we lost, but because we could have won. And especially because the younger players did not have the chance to develop fully as they might have done in better circumstances. That was the real disappointment. My only hope for next year is that the remaining players retain the vitality, enthusiasm and en- joyment of the game that made the first few matches so euphonic for me and that they can be given better opportunities to develop into the super players I think they po- tentially could be. Thanks and best wishes to Jeffy, Pritch, Ray, J.D., Niall, Slicker, Chris, Sneaky Pete, Peter Ho and the coach for grinning and bearing it. ' • .- -v .r .
