With the beginning of the varsity basketball season came a couple of changes of members of the team. One major change was a new prac- tice time. The guys on the varsity all received 7th hour study halls, so they were able to practice every day from 2:15-4:15. Another change included new warm-ups for the team members, which they received mid-way through the season. The gray pants and multicolored blue striped shirts fired up both the team and the fans. The season was filled with big vi c- tories for the team. One of the sea- son ' s highlights was winning the championship game of the Martins- ville Holiday Tourney. Matt Hainje had an exceptionally fine day, scor- ing a total of 51 points in the two games the team played. The team, coaches and cheerleaders came home tired and happy, clutching a brand new trophy for the Knights ' collection. Other big games included an ex- citing last second win over Crown Point, and a victory over the McCut- cheon Mavericks. At the time McCutcheon was rated number one in the area. After the game, the fans and team members were confident that their team had a great chance of winning sectionals. The Knights set their goals high this year. Their dedication and hard work paid off with a winning season. With an attitude like that, how could they lose? 1: Coach Wolf directs the Knights in a scrim- mage game during one of their many long practices. 2: Looking on in anticipation, coaches Worland, Hoff and Wolf send their support to the Knights from the bench. 3: A block by Matt Kendrick shows the McCut- cheon Mavericks they ' ll have to fight to win. 4: While the opponent tries unsuccessfully to block his shot. Todd Morton strains for a basket. 5: Co-Captains Matt Hainje and Matt Kendrick let the crowd know the Knights are 1, after beating McCutcheon. 6: A good call is definitely a reason for Coach Wolf and the team to get rowdy. 7: Before the game, the winning spirit travels through the team during a pep talk from Coach Wolf. 8: Pat Haan drives in for a basket while Bryan Kerr assists him in warding off Covington Raiders. 9: Dur- ing a Varsity Basketball game, Bill Mellady, Dave Hartlip. and Bob Metzger keeps their eyes glued to the court in order to report the score and stats accurately. varsity basketball 201
