February 21, 1951 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Seven C.C. 3rd IN D.A C.C. Loses League Opener Jan. 4 - The 1957 Catholic League basketball season unfolded rather unfortunately for the Fly- ers, as they were unable to defeat a powerful Cathedral quintet. Although they managed to sustain the lead during the first half Q33- 31J, the sharpshooting players of the Belleville team seemed to have the edge, as the final score resulted in favor of them, 71-53. Although our opener was un- successful, it did not seem to hinder our ensuing season. C.C. Defeats De Sales, 64-53 Jan. 8-Disliking the taste of defeat, the Flyers returned to digest a delectable 64-53 victory over St. Francis de Sales in their second league game. Throughout the entire game the Flyers quin- tet continued to score, much to the chagrin of de Sales. C.C. Victor 0ver,Coyle Jan. 11-Once again the Flyers defeated a league competitor, Coyle, in our third league game with a score of 60-52. Continuing to surge ahead in our league, the Flyers displayed a spirit which is typical of Chaminade, persever- ance. Staying closely behind throughout the first half 127-24, favor of Coylel, the team, spear- headed by Steve Satterthwaite, drove on to a 60-52 victory, de- spite the efforts of Coyle's Holl- man, who scored 28 points. The Flyers' top men were Satter- thwaite, 223 Kearns, 15. Duehesne Bows to C.C. Jan. 15-On the home courts of Duehesne the Flyers faced this well coached St. Charles team in a hotly contested game which re- sulted in our 78-65 victory. In this game not only did we manage to defeat one of the most potent league contenders, but also we accumulated one of the high- est scores of the present season. With our pungent offensive drive and the uncanny defense keyed to block up their star play- er, Tom Smith, who was a former student of Chaminade, we held the lead during the complete game. C.C. Defeated by C.B.C. Jan. 18-With last year's vic- TOURNAMENT, tory over C.B.C. behind us, we gained the lead in the first quar- ter only to be eventually out- scored in the 60-43 defeat in favor of C.B.C. It was the bril- liant playing of their forward, Shannon, which spearheaded their team to the 17 point victory. How- ever, it was the sharp offense of Kevin Kearns and Ray Dohle, who scored 12 and 14 points, re- spectively, that kept the C.B.C. quintet on their guard. C.C. Loses First Place Chance Jan. 25-The powerful Belleville team again defeated the Flyers, thus almost assuring the first place in the league. The 68-54 victory over our team on Cathedral's court seemed to quench our bid for the league title. Although Kearns scored 20 points and Dohle 9, their edge of height and consequent control of the backboards were the deciding factor in our repeated defeat. C.C. Wins 75-47 Victory Feb. 5-The Flyers scored a 28 point victory over the frus- trated John Burroughs team in the game held in our gym for the March of Dimes drive to fight polio. The first half was a perfect dis- play of teamwork led by Rich Boyer, who scored 22 points in this game. The half score was 28-14 in favor of the Chaminade quintet. The final score was to be ex- pected when our .team piled up basket after basket. Flyers Defeat De Sales Again Feb. 13, our second victory over De Sales was similar to the first as we defeated their fighting quin- tet, 68-57. Breaking away from the first quarter tie, the Flyers gradually rose to a 33-25 lead by half-time. Kevin Kearns, the Flyers leading scorer, dumped in 31 points and sparked the team to their 11 point victory. Other individual scores were: Boyer, 153 Hunter, 8, Satter- thwaite, 7g Viragh, 4: Hughes 2, and Kohlberg, 1. BOYER ALL-STAR S-T-R-E-T-C-H C.C. Edged Out By Cougars Feb. 7, our second game against Coyle, although a very tense and exciting one, was not as favorable to the Flyers as the first. It was a hotly contested game, resulting in Coy1e's 52-51 victory only in an overtime. The Flyers stepped ahead in the beginning of the game and held the lead up .to the first half, which was 25-18 in favor of CC. However, it seemed as if the fContinued on Page 81 C.C.

Page Six CARDINAL AND WHITE February 21, 1957 0-TEAM SEASDN SPEGTACIILAR Ifnder the able coaching of llrothers Ray Davenport and Cyril lloschert, the freshman basketball team has racked up a spectacular 18-2 record. Their first loss ot' the season was suffered against a tall Kirk- wood lligh squad. The game was hard fought, but CC bowed in defeat, 47-43. The freshmen then faced Lind- burg who had already beaten Kirkwood. CC showed their true strength by romping them 46-17. Chaniinade next played host to St. Louis U. lligh, It was a close battle all the way, with Bina's foul shots proving the deciding factor. CC managed to squeeze by 28-26. Their next game was played at home. CC suffered its second loss, losing a heartbreaker, 33-325 but in their rematch, CC turned the tables and won 43-42. ln their next two games CC won by their widest margins, beating St. Francis de Sales and .lolm Burroughs, 47-5 and 57-13. The freshmen then played St. Mary's. This resulted in anoth- er CC romp, 43-28. Thus far CC has given an aver- age of 25 points a game, while making 41. A rematch against Kirkwood, a team that had already beaten CC, resulted in a Chaminade win, as they 1'acked up 47 points, giving only 175 thus beating both teams that had beaten them. Many factors are accountable for this record. The freshmen have access to many fine plays both in defense and offense, the fast break and zone press are but a few. llro. llalph lloe lt Again During the past eigl1t years of llro. Ralph Krull's brilliant coach- ing, the Preps of Chaminade have tallied up a record more outstand- ing than any of the Flyers'. Their two hundred and two victories to only twenty-seven losses is an achievement which few teams have the right to boast about. Therefore, it is the express pleas- ure of the CQW to pay tribute to Bro. ltalph's fine teams which are often the concrete foundations upon which our Flyers are built. Not only has the Prep depart- ment been renowned for its vic- tories in general, but moreover for its tremendous record of tournament victories. The Preps have placed first in their own Chaminade Tournament once in '54-'55, second in '49-'50 and third in '55-'56 and '53-'54. In the St. Louis University Tournament they have placed first twice i11 '53-'54 and in '54-'55, and third once in '49-'50. They have taken two first places in the St. Vincent's Tourna- ment in Normandy both in '54-'55 and in '55-'56, The Columbian Squires 'Pournament in Webster has afforded them the opportunity to win a first place in '49-'50. In the St. Charles Junior High Tournament they have won once in '52-'53 and placed third three times, '49-'50, '50-'51, and '53-'54. During their only two years in C.Y.0. tournaments they managed to reach the semi-finals in the city playoffs in '49-'50. Thus the unique review of the Preps under the masterful guide of Bro. Ralph has passed. Bro. Ralph, we tip our hats to you and your Preps, but also wish you more such remarkable success as you have garnered during your past years at Chaminade.

The Cougars from Kirkwood were really given a royal welcome as Chaminade poured in tifteen points in the first quarter of play. For CC, Juan Perez was high with 13 points, followed by Coffelt and Dardas, each of whom had 11 markers. The final score: Cha- minade 46, Coyle 33. Four days later the Junior Var- sity met Duchesne High on their home court. It was a battle royal all the way, but Mike Dardas, always able to score when the chips are down, racked in 10 points and snared just as many rebounds. Despite being hampered by the injured ankle of ace for- ward Kemper Coffelt, CC rolled up an impressive victory. win- ning 39-27. Cathedral of Belleville was the next scheduled game for the Jun- ior Flyers. The stronger Cathe- dral five proved too much for Chaniinade, however, as Cathedral walked away with a 56-42 deci- sion. High man for Chaminadc was Coffelt with 13 markers to his credit.
