The team carried a clean slate, coming through the season unde- feated. One by one the teams fell before the masterful ball of Marshall 8tevenson. No game was in doubt until the Championship game, but by the sixth Inning the team came through and eased the minds of all. Steven- son gained twelve strike outs while Chandler, North Syracuse ace, mowed down five batters. Coach Getman has at last realized his dream of a championship team, and as many of the players will return next year, the Championship Bhould be repeated. The pitching of Stevenson and the batting of the whole team w'as the whole Btory of the team’s victories. The team was supported by a large number of students and towns- people at every home game and also at out-of-town games. All the players were experienced, if not on this High School team, on some other organized team. Every sport lover in town is proud of the team for its record in games and sportsmanship. They are long to be remembered. 18

About fifty girls responded to the first call for practice and Coach Getman had no easy task in selecting the regular squad and from the squad another task of selecting the first team. The team was composed of new as well as old players. Esther Clark, return right guard was chosen by her team mates, as Captain and proved to fill that position 100 per cent. It was the best team to represent the Academy in the three years it has had a team. BLOCK LETTERS Third Year—Esther Clark, Blanch Welden. Second Year—Bernice Loveless.

Coach Getman had a team of returns to deal with and much time was spent on plays, which were worked very well and helped a great deal in running up the large scores the team did in the majority of the games. Pete Montague was elected Captain by his team mates and did exceedingly well, knowing every stage of the game. The team is to be congratulated on its good work.

THE ATHLETIC PROGRAM The athletic program of 1925-26 has been more extensive than in any other year. The school has been represented by teams in football, bas- ketball (both boys and girls), and baseball. The County League did not sponsor a track meet this spring, so that no attempt was made to develop a track team and no opportunity given to defend the track title won last year. The teams have, as in former years, competed in the County League. In football Baldwlnsville placed second, suffering only one defeat. Four contests with non-league teams were played. Phoenix and Onon- daga Valley were defeated and Cortland and Herkimer were victorious against us. The team’s work against Herkimer and Cortland was no doubt the most outstanding of the year. Herkimer, a sectional cham- pion, and Cortland adjudged the best H. S. team in the state, won hard- earned victories in which the margin of difference between the teams was but slight. The boys’ basketball team finished second in the West Section of the County League. Besides the League games the team played almost as many non-league games in which it was fairly successful. The Girls' basketball team after a poor start, made a splendid up- bill fight to win for the third consecutive year the Championship of the West Section. In the play-off they emerged second best in a game in which an overtime foul shooting contest was needed to determine the victor. 19
