'EU 'EE The history of basketball at Brother Rice is relatively short- yet illus- trious. Mr. Pat Costello took over the coaching iob in second year, succeeding Brother G.B. Rohan who handled the team in the first year of the school's ex- istence. From these humble beginnings, the mighty Crusader cagers have arisen. Last year marked the Crusader's en- trance into varsity competition. It also brought the initial appearance of Brother Rice in the two great holiday tournaments: The DePaul Tournament and the Fenwick Junior Tournament. Captain Lee Wenhart has paced the Heavies in scoring for four years and holds the individual scoring record: on March 6, 1959, Lee tallied 29 points against Mount Carmel. The Lights have compiled an enviable record over their four year span. Captain Pat Foley has been their leading scorer for the four years. Foley has been close- ly followed in scoring by his sidekick, Bill Zint, who besides being a great rebounder, is consistently a high scor- er. On March 6, 1959, against Mount Carmel, Bill established an individual scoring record - 32 points. This rec- ord was shattered the following season when, on November 20, 1959, Pat Foley tallied 33 points. The basketball teams have establish- ed a tradition of fiery competition which future Crusader teams will find hard to equal. 5:4 M53 Xu- Evxiw f 1 4 ' yu X T 5 Q is ' I l . . X . l '- A - 1 .
