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 .

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.

U 16- U 15 Basketbal !i FRONT ROW: Taylor, Headley, Kee, Baker, Mutimer, MIDDLE ROW: Durdan, Sequin, Wildman, Allen, Duncan, Smith, Mr. Richardson. BACK ROW: Piotrowski, Distelmeyer, Tasi, Manifould. As another basketball season came to an end our U16 team proved not to be victorious, with 5 wins and 10 losses. However we greatly improved our skills in dribbling and shooting, thanks to the patience and coaching of Mr. Richardson. The experience has been well worthwhile as the team members look ahead to the years to come at the 1st team level. Throughout the season the team played consistantly in tight situa- tions with our guards Dave Mutimer, Louis Headly, Mark Duncan, Kevin Thomson, James Kee and Stewart Taylor doing their best to bring the ball up the floor to the forwards Mark Manifould, Captain; Dave Tasi, Steve Allen, Chris Wildman, Will Sequin, Kyle O ' Hearn, Dave Durdan - and centres Dave Piotroski, and Dave Distelmeyer, Asst. Captain; who worked hard to get the basketball in the hoop, but did not always succeed. A few games were narrowly lost due to poor foul shooting, but when we gave lOCVo effort we were able to keep up with the best teams in the league. Examples of this ef- fort and determination were games played against Ridley and U.C.C. in which we came from behind to win. The most .unfortunate ac- cident of the season happened to one of our key players, Dave Durdan, who chipped his kneecap during a jump ball at Hillfield. Hopefully this accident will not hamper his return next season. Thanks coach for keeping the spirit high among us and good luck with the team of 1980. David Distelmeyer
