The team started off the season with a bang—they won eight straight games before they were defeated by Split Rock. But Camillus started off with a bang also and as a result Baldwinsville and Camillus finished their regular league schedule in a tie for first place. Then came the game at Liverpool High School, for the championship of the Western Section of Onondaga County. The game was hard-fought throughout. Baldwinsville led from the opening whistle and were never headed until the overtime period, in which Camillus earned three points, and a right to the title—Western Section Champions. Another possible championship in basketball went with that game. Kelly held down the center position this year and did a very good job of it, getting the tap in nearly every game. Paired at the forward positions were Blanding and Carroll, both very quick and keen for the basket. These two were among the leaders for high scoring honors for the county. Furman, captain of the best basketball team ever to represent Baldwins- villc Academy, played stellar basketball throughout. Furman was the most dangerous scoring threat on the team, and one of the best guards in the county. This is his fourth year of competition. Crego concentrated most of his time in the back court. Cooper and Doran fitted in very well on the first team whenever they were substituted. Price, Bicknell. Seabold and Luce also played. 'fhe following received letters: Fourth Year: Russell Furman, Captain. Gold Basketball. Third Year: Clarence Blanding, Fritz Crego. Second Year: Maurice Carroll. Philip Cooper, Francis Seabold, Rich Price. First Year: Jack Kelly, Candy Doran, Sidney Luce. Winston Baker, Manager. 23

FOOTBALL When a team smashes its way through an undefeated league season, thereby winning the undisputed championship of the league, it is generally agreed that that team is a great team indeed. So it was at Baldwinsville in the season of 1929. when a great Baldwins- ville team swept through the Onondaga County League, to claim the cham- pionship of the County League. In 1926, Baldwinsville High School possessed the finest football team the County has ever seen. That was truly a wonderful team. Teams such as that don’t come every year, or every twenty years; but the 1929 team came as close to equaling the record of the great eleven of 1926 as any Baldwins- ville football team is likely to come in some years. Summary Baldwinsville 13-Camillus 7—In a pre-season game at Camillus, Bald- winsville outplayed the Junior Division Champions to take a decisive vic- tory. Baldwinsville 14-East Syracuse 0—The first league game of the season and with our old rivals, East Syracuse, 1928 Champions. This game was played at Baldwinsville and a very eager crowd looked on with satisfaction as the Balwwinsville team smashed through the heavy East Syracuse line for two touchdowns and sweet victory. Carroll scored from the four-yard mark to spill first blood for B’ville. Late in the fourth period. Captain Sea- bold intercepted an East Syracuse pass, which he converted into a touch- down. Baldwinsville 7-Favettcville 7—Coach Gctman used this game to ex- periment with new lineups and plays. The game was a non-league contest and was loosely played. ... , , . Baldwinsville 13-Marcellus 6—B’ville continued its march by downing Marcellus on the latter’s field in a hard fought game. “Irish Carroll did most of the ball carrying in this game and scored all of the points. Baldwinsville 13-Myndersc Academy 6—B’ville journeyed to Seneca Falls to win a hard fought game from Mynderse Academy. This was one of the hardest played games on our schedule and Baldwinsville found Myn- dersc a hard team to beat. 25
