This years freshman basketball team began their season in spectac- ular fashion. Under the direction of Coach Mark Andrews, the young team won their first six games. Their first game was a thriller against the Benton Central Bisons. They had been behind for the first three quarters, but in the final sec- onds were able to pull off a win for the Knights. They proceeded to win their next five games, before being stopped by North Montgomery — a game which ended with a one point spread. After suffering a loss to rival Tecumseh the Knights again had a winning streak of three games. One of these games was against Wain- wright. The young team was able to hold them scoreless during the first quarter, and the opponents had only four points at the end of the half. The freshman suffered their third defeat in the hands of rival Tippeca- noe, but bounced right back to de- feat Twin Lakes by 29 points. The Knights had to wait until their eighth game before J.R. Porter, a transfer from Southwestern could play. The team played in a tourney this year at Western Boone, but failed to win their games. They ended the day in fourth place. This year the freshman guys gained valuable experience, but more importantly grew closer to- gether as a team. OPPOSITE TOP: Coach Mark Andrews dis- cusses a play with his team during a time out.
