Coach Peterson identified his number two scorer, jim Blamey as his most consistent performer5 took spec ial note of the play of number one scorer, Terry Vane, reed-thin Sean O'Kane and quick, young Mark Messier. Basketball at Mitty is definitely looking up because of the excellent coaching and continued commitment seen at the Frosh level.
