Ahern, all Baagafgaff This year's season provided many surprises for us, as the Bobcats started from the bottom with entirely new boys and battled to sixth place in the Conference and a much-respected seventh in the state tournament. Prospects in the Brookings camp were at the lowest ebb in years due to the fact that none of last year's award winners returned. l-lowever, a line-up was quickly formed as five men proved their ability. Although the Cats lost the opener, they later set their pace, and became a powerful team, losing to un- defeated Huron by only one point. By earning a ticket to the state tourney this year's team upheld a fine Bob- cat tradition. At the end of the season eleven men received letters, eight of whom will return next year. Of these, five are seniors, two are juniors, and one is a sophomore. lt was principally these men who carried our colors of red and black last year. Not only the regulars, but also the reserves showed a great deal of ability this year. With all these thoughts in mind, we are looking forward to another successful year for our team.
