38 Basketball Roundballers Triumph At Tulsa Edison During the first week of school many young men gathered to shoot. This lead to the basis of the Sand Springs Sandites basketball team. The team started the season off right with a key victory over archrival Broken Arrow and lost the following week to powerhouse East Central. Even though we moved up to SA, I feel we were competitive, stated ju- nior Greg Vaughn. Head coach Don Johnson taught these men all he could and led them to a championshi at the Edison Tourna- ment where they walloped Ro ers, Edison, and, of course, Sapulpa. be- lieve this is the best group of youn men I've had, stated head coaclgr Johnson. The Sandites traveled to Miami to compete with both Missouri and Oklahoma teams. The Roundballers lost to top ranked Parkview, Missouri, but felt that this was the best team they had ever seen in high school ball. Even though they lost, the men came back to beat two other teams to win fifth, which was not bad in a field of around 100 teams. I think this is a great bunch of guys who Elay well together. We had a great coac who inspired us every day and we couldn't have done it without him, stated senior Bill Dudek.

As the last half of the season came to a close, the Sandites posted a win- ning record. The Sandites pulled stun- ning victories over East Central as well as Broken Arrow. The Broken Arrow game, the last game of the year, really was not a must. The only thing that was on the line was the team's pride and the fact that Broken Arrow was the archrival. The lead see-sawed back and forth during the first quarter and without pause the Tigers took the lead during the second quarter also. However, during the fourth quarter, the San- dites pulled together to dust away the Tigers 69-59. I feel we were emotionally pre- pared as well as physically, stated senior Darren Boone. The team posted a 17-5 seasonal re- cord and wound up ranked eleventh in the Tribune's SA conference. The following week the site for regionals was chosen and the Sandites' home court was given the privilege of play- ing host. During the tournament, the Sandites expressed their pride as they played 110 percent throughout the tournament. TRILOGY OF TERROR - Three senior Sandited roundballers, Bill Dudek, QZSJ, Greg Potter f25j, and Rick Superglue Perdue 1151 surround a Sapulpa dribbler during the home victory. 40 Basketball
