PURPLE AND GOLD Page 47 Basketball Superlatives are lacking to speak adequately of C. B. A.'s stellar year in basketball. It was a continued climbing from Vernon to Passaic! Each game was but another step up the ladder to success. It is true that the team slipped once or twice but in the long run this onlyadded to their glory. Never in the history of scholastic basket- ball in Syracuse has a team been supported so well. The school gym was packed for the small- est games. The fight for seats at the major con- tests began weeks before the game. Records and comparisons are good indications of a team's strength, but there is no mark so infallible as the following it has. From start to finish, it was a truly wonderful season. Even in the opening games, the Brothers, team ran up huge scores, showing the air tight defense and beautiful ability to handle the ball that carried them through. As the season pro- gressed and harder games became more preva- lent, the condition of the team became evident. The continued successes at the end of the season were due mainly to the ability of the players to keep going from start to finish. At the Glens Falls Tournament C. B. A. was pitted against the pick of the Eastern States. Here again the Colden Tornado swept everything before it. And, as a fitting crown for their labors, the Brothers' aggregation humbled the invincible Passaic, exacting full revenge for the defeats suffered at the hands of the Jersey Wlonders in previous years. Looking backward, it was a great year for C. B. A. In twenty-two starts, the team slipped only twice. Any quintet that had the honor of conquering the Purple and Gold cagers, may well be proud of itself. just as in football, the spirit and spunk displayed by that stellar squad were without parallel. They were gentlemen in vic- tory and perfect losers in the face of bitter de- feat. Every place they went, C. B. A. is now known for its clean athletes and good sports. The reputation of C. B. A., Syracuse, has been widely broadcast and in future years other representa- tives of our Alma Mater will look up to the '25- '26 five as the shining example of what a C. B. .-X. team should be.
