'lst Row: W. Timmerson, R. Rodinsky, K. Thornton, A. Sprenkle. 2nd Row: Coach Paul, B. Spotti, T. Anderson, B. Lamb, N. Veydt, Coach Stanko The Big Mac cagers had a very successful season this year. They placed third behind Mt. Lebanon and Washington. The Big Mac quin- tet was composed of all seniors: Lamb, Anderson, Veyclt, Rodinsky, and Thornton. In section four the Big Macs posted one or more wins over everyone except Washington. The section four champions, Mt. Lebanon, were beaten only once and that was at the hands of Canon-McMillan. In their first meeting the Big Macs were beaten by a score of 83-70 on Mt. Lebanon's home court. In their next meeting the team was favored even though they were badly beaten the first time around. With Bob Lamb holding out the Mounties big gun Bob Bennet and with the sharp shooting of Veydt, Thornton, Anderson, and Spotti, the team came through with a 54-50 victory. After beating the mounties the Big Macs were going out to avenge an earlier defeat of Wash Hi. Wash Hi proved to be very tough again and the Big Macs just couldn't come up with the victory. Some of the outstanding underclassmen for the Big Macs were Art Sprenkle, Wade Timmerson, Bill Spotti, and Bob Novak. These under- classmen and some of the boys coming up from the B squad, along with Coach Stanko, are going to try for that first place in section four in 63 .
