I 956 ffeazfywezyhf Squad The Arcata Tigers started the T955-56 hoop season as the pre-season favorites to walk away with the Humboldt-Del Norte CIF League crown. The Tigers lead the league for more than three-fourths of the season before falling into a slump and dropping their last three out of four league games. Before the Tigers dropped their first game to the Del Norte Warriors on the home court, they had compiled a twenty-one win, nothing loss record, nine of which were in league play. The Tigers, after beating every team in the league by ten or more points, excepting the Del Norte game which we lost by two points, dropped three games in the last two weeks of the season to fall into a tie for second place with the Del Norte Warriors. One of the most exciting games was in the first round of league play, when the Eureka Loggers came riding into town all tied up for first place with the Tigers. Although Arcata won by eleven points the game was one of the thrillers o'f the season. Both games with the Del Norte Warriors also had many thrill-packed moments as Arcata split with the Warriors for the Humboldt-Del Norte CIF title. For the first time in many years the Tigers went to a post-season tournament. Arcata travelled to Yreka where they participated in the first Annual Yreka Invi- tational Basketball Tournament. The Tigers started the tournament in fine style, by dumping the tourney favorites, the Weed Cougars, in the opening round. Arcata then went on to split their remaining two games to receive the third place trophy. Earl Dimmick was named to the all tournament squad. Jim Dimmick captained the squad this year and was a major asset to the Tigers with his driving hook shot. Earl Dimmick and Gane Forson aided the Tigers with their board play and ability to work around the key. Ken Armstrong and Larry Johnson helped the Tiger cause with their long set shots. Bill Brittain, number six man on the squad this year, was also ready to fill a gap left by one of the regulars as he kept the Tigers full of life with his scrappy ball playing. Jim Dimmick was appointed to the all-county basketball team. Members of the heavyweight squad are, seated, left to right: Dennis West, Ken Armstrong, Larry Johnson, Scott Holmes, Bill Brit-tain. Kneeling: John Black, Gene Forson, Bob McCord, George Berry, Sam Bishop. Standing: Doyle Burwell, Earl Dimmick, Richard Carr, Jim Dimmick. GAA' , - ' vs V J
