BASKETBALL FRESHMAN The 1965-66 season was a very succ ss- ful one for the Freshman boys. Mr. Ta or and Mr. Acaster, the coaches, started p no¬ tices in early November. The boys won all of their league games and lost only of their exhibition games. The league cht m- pions then proceeded against Tec Voc in the semi-finals. In a two game total pi int series Churchill gained enough of a leac in the first game to take the series. After v in¬ ning this series, they advanced aga ist Gordon Bell. This contest was one of he closest in Churchill history. Churchill von the first game of the best of three serier in the last ten seconds. However in the second game the boys slipped far behind and w ;re unable to catch up. The third game v as close all the way through but unfortun¬ ately Churchill lost by three points. Janie Horne, John Loewen, and Victor Krisciuras Left to Right: John Loewen, Jamie Horne, were chosen for the all-star team. Bruce Zimmer, Allan Stewart, Bob Raffey, Don Pincock, Bob Keeley, Francis McKee, Todd Pennell, Vic Kriskiunas, Mr. Taylor (coach). VARSITY This season the varsity squad came through with a respectable record of 3 wins and 5 loses. Led by the relentless coaching of Mr. Bryant, the high scoring of Al Brolly and the play making of Larry Jefferson, their record was laudable when compared to the quality of the league. The victories included the all out team efforts over Grant Park 57-50, Gordon Bell and Elmwood 60-30. Despite the fact they failed to make the play-offs, the team still provided thrills’for school supporters. Grade 1 1 members of this year ' s squad will provide a solid nucleus for next year ' s team and will hope to raise the winning percentage next year.
