BASKETBALL Quickness, a pressure defense, and an effective fast- break enabled [he sophomore basketball team to finish the season with an impressive 19-5 record. The strong team effort gave the team a secure second place in league standings. Highlights of the season included defeating Sad- dleback and Fountain Valley and scoring 97 points against San Clemente, according to Coach John Stephens. Outstanding players included Jamie Todd and Brice Martin, both guards. Jamie was noted for his leadership, Brice for his defense and shooting. Aar- on Kokx, a forward, contributed exceptional scor- ing, while David Olsen, also a forward, was an instrumental part of the team ' s strong defense. Center Peter McSweeny provided outstanding hus- tle and rebounding. Capo Valley provided the toughest competition of the season. Partially hindered by an impatient of- fense, Dana Hills played a fierce game but ended up losing by one point. The freshman basketball team struggled in league standings, but Coach Mike Chapman was particu ■ larly impressed by how far the team came by the end. The team finished fifth in league, but they made steady daily improvement. The toughest games were against Irvine and El Toro; weak shooting and ball handling prevented the Dana Hills boys from doing well. Excellent freshman athletes included Danny An- derson on offense, Jacob Summers on defense, and Marc Alms, recognized for his work ethic and desire, -k.g. 1. Sophomore team member Jamie Todd hits the shot for two after brealiing loose from the Triton defense. 2.
