The final team consisted of two eighth graders, nine fresh- Girls' Basketball Becky Evans shoots for the Little Falconettes, as Sharon Leake, 21, Emma Swartz, 29, and Linda Koch, 3, look on.

Varsity Basketball The Falcon's ended their 1965-1966 sea- son with an 8 Win and 10 loss record. C.H.S. was, by no means, a consistent ball club throughout the year. In the first game with Stonewall, the Falcons went into the third quarter boosting a good lead, however, the Falcons drew a cold hand and narrowly es- caped defeat by the fired-up Generals. The final score was 76-73. The first game with Rappahannock was on their home court. The Panthers, seeded next to last in front of Stras- burg, played an inspired game and handed Central the biggest upset in this year's sched- ule. However, when the Panthers came to play at Central the Falcons played well or- ganized ball and firmly trounced the Panth- ers. This again happened with the Montevideo Maroons. When the Falcons travelled-to Penn Laird, they defeated the Maroons by four points but were, in turn, defeated by the Ma- roons at Central. The easiest victories of the season for Central were those over Stras- burg. In both games with the Rams, Central not only won easily, but also substituted free- ly. Even though the teams overall schedule was nothing spectacular, the Central fans can take pride in the fine exhibition of sports- manship and ability displayed by the Falcons in most of their games.
