Viirs ty Basketball Executing a perfected under- hand lay-up, Paul Westphal adds two paints to the Falcon score. Paul set a new season scorint; record and was named to the All-League First Team.

The ' 6:30 Creu ' JV Dribblers Finish Second in Competition In spite of an occasional lacl; of teamwork and only fair defense, the JV cagcrs tied for the Pioneer Lcaojue ' s second spot. Stronc; points for the Varsity hopefuls were rebounding, shooting, and all-around hustle. The quick hands and scoring talents of Rick Kiser and Chuck Kimber contributed to the JV s successful season. While Kimber rebounded, blocked opponent ' s shots, and scored from under the basket, Kiser stole balls, passed, and sank outside shots. Nearly every member of the team showed Varsi- ty promise. Coach Ron Dinnel summed up the sea- son: Although the play was ragged at times, indi- vidual talent contributed greatly to the second- place finish. Up for grabs, JV cagers scramble under the basket for the rebound. Mike Ir ' ing jumps high against the blocking of a Lawndale op- ponent to add two points toward the Falcon victory. ' 67- ' 68 Junior Varsity Basketball players are R. Kiser, A. Basso, J. Chinn, C. Kinnbcr, T. Carey, J. Fraser, R. Gray, D. Cava- naugh, T. Greenwood.
