IT'S NOT BALLET, but rebounding that Fred illiller UH denionslrnies ns he grabs one from Robinson contenders. 128 Cage Team Scores Best Season in CHS Histor Headed up by the sparkling performances of Jud Roberts and Mike Vacher, the Chief's 1965 cage team scorched the record books in scoring and fin- ished second in the conference and city behind the Hillsborough Terriers. Posting 19 Wins against only 4 losses, the sizzling Chiefs blazed to the best season ever in the history of CHS. VVith sterling play by all the cagers, the old conference scoring record went down as the Chiefs dumped King's Lions by an astronomical score of 124-86. Then, scarcely two weeks later, the Robinson Knights bowed to the rarnpaging warriors by 116-68. All told, the hundred point mark was passed three times and missed by only one point two times. Promising to be the best season ever for the Chiefs, hopes for an undefeated season were marred by three losses to Hi11sborough's freezing Terriers. Two were conference games, and the third was dur- ing the Kiwanis Christmas Invitational tournament. The fourth and final loss went to Robinson in a post-season group tournament game, as the hapless Chiefs fell, 43-40. UPPER-CUT OR LAY-UP? Driving in for quick two points, Mike Vncherf5j polishes OH record breaking victory over King.
