BASKETBALL The 1933-34 basketball team opened the season with an overtime win over Camillus, only to be set back by Split Rock the following week. Winning from Marcellus, they lost to Skaneateles and Solvay. Then Baldwinsville seemed to find itself and defeated Jordan, Warners, and Camillus. Again Split Rock and Skaneateles were the stronger teams and beat Baldwinsville. The Crimson and White finished up the season by de- feating Solvay, Jordan, Warners, and Marcellus. Led by Captain John Mowins, the Baldwinsville quintet gained a position in the play- offs, beating Solvay, only to be squeezed out by Split Rock in a close battle that decided the championship of the Western Section. Mowins and Farnham, forwards, and Bates, center, were the only players with inter- scholastic experience in league play, however, Coach Getman added Crego and Sulli- van as guards and they, assisted by Smallwood, Bradway, Wilkinson and Rowe, formed a very strong team. During the season of 14 league games and 2 playoff games: Mowins made 113 points; Farnham 110 points; Bates 108 points; Sullivan 90 points; and Crego 40 points. Sullivan and Bates were tied for the honors for maximum points in one evening, each making 18 points in a single game. For the first time in the Onondaga County League there was a Junior Varsity team. The Baldwinsville Junior Varsity won about two-thirds of their games and thereby fail- ing to qualify for the playoffs. Among the players who starred in this league are: F. Sullivan, Bunney, Turner, Browning, Howard, Cole, Navin and Howland.

FOOTBALL The Red Raiders of the Seneca came through the 1933 Football season with flying colors, garnering 7 victories and 1 tie. The first game found the Red Raiders traveling to Pulaski and engaging in a non- league tilt. The Pulaski boys were defeated 21 to 0. The second game initiated the league circuit and again found the Getmenites on the road invading Skaneateles. They took the Lakeshorers in camp to the tune of 24 to 0. The following week the team traveled once more, this time to Solvay where they were held to a tie, 7 to 7. The next game was the first home game of the season. The Raiders still in mourn- ing over the setback handed them by Solvay, whitewashed the East Syracusans 43 to 0. The Red Raiders again leaving the banks of the Seneca and traveling to Manlius, the home team were victorious, 6 to 0. The high spirited North Syracuse team who invaded the banks of the Seneca were sent home in low spirits as the result of a 20 to 6 defeat. The final brought a strong Marcellus team to B'ville. Again the Red Raiders showed their superiority by defeating the Marcellus boys 20 to 0. As a reward for the successful season the Red Raiders of the Seneca were given a trip to Liverpool where they engaged in a game with the highly rated Liverpool team. The game was played in the new Lakeshore Stadium. As a climax the defeat of the Lake boys to the score of 20 to 0, satisfied every member of our squad. The lettermen: E. Madden (capt. elect), Bates, Mowins, Bigelow, Gilmore, Gaylord, Bochino (capt.), Bush, Kiteveles, Hudson, Turner, Dunham, Martin, VanWie, Plunkett, Merriam, Navin, Smallwood, Crego (mgr.).

BASEBALL Coach Getman's call for candidates for baseball, immediately after Easter vacation, was answered by about forty boys. Individually and collectively the squad was green as very few of the previous nine were present. Poor weather further handicapped the squad and they had only very few practice sessions before meeting Marcellus. O'Brien, Mathewson and Sullivan constituted the pitching staff in the initial game and throughout the season. Madden filled the vacancy left by Gaylord in catcher's post and the infield consisted of Bush, Smallwood, Smith, and Sullivan. Bump, Rowe, and Mathewson were the strongest part of the team, doing a good job of fielding. The team was not able to hold their opponents throughout the season and finished in the cellar of the league. The lettermen are: O'Brien, Madden, Sullivan, Bush, Smallwood, Bradway, Rowe, Mathewson, Bump, Smith, Farnham, Crego.
