Billy Biggs gets a boost 1 Neno dunks one A fighting, fast passing, sharp-shooting, ever-alert ROCKET Cage Team that was one in spirit was the type of combination that Coach Jablonski sent into competition. From the very first game with Natiocoke Hi, which we won in an overtime period, our success was due to teamwork. Cooperating with their instructors were five members of the Senior Class. The 'fiery' figure in the person of Captain Len Penkrot displayed a versatility of shots, great driving plays and consistent re- bounding. Bill Biggs was excellent as a shot maker and ball handler. He frequently made fast charg- ing lay-up shots with a deceptive wiggle as he squeezed through opposing guards. Bernie Mastroff fre- quently relieved at center with much composure. Stan Koznetski and Dan Yancheck both saw action in most games and were noted for their fine shooting. Steve Sokolowski, Bernie Radecki and Bobby Hess. three Sophomores, were in the starting line up. Big Steve was a tower of strength on the defense and his one hand flips from all over the court were beautiful to behold. Bernie was a good defensive player and in several crucial games came through with baskets from all angles. Bobby, an outstanding play maker, a superb faker, was all over the floor. Two Juniors Al Jablonski and Joe Alesczyk continued their time playing by seeing action in most games.
