Garcia, Smith lead Coogs 'ro good season. Preparing for their chance to play forthe varsity team, the junior varsity and freshmen put in many hours of grueling practices as well as games. The JV was led by leading scorers Peter Garcia and Bill Shaw. Peter, who averaged about 12 points a game, was closely followed by Bill, who averaged 7 points a game. Hav- ing jumped out to a 7-1 record in the first eight games really put the spirits high for the Coogs. After having established such a high winning record, the Coogs settled down and played consistently for the rest of the season. . The JV finished with an 8-8 district record and an 18-9 overall record that put them in 4th place which gave them the best record established by the JV. The JV was filled with many good players like 6'4 junior Larry Maiors who controlled the boards for the Coogs. The freshman Coogs were led by two very strong players who aver- aged about 16 points a game. Donnie Smithiland Anthony Harrel were the outstanding players who could and did do it all for the Coogs. The freshman Coogs were under theydirection of Coach Bobby San- ders. The Coogs had many good players along with Donnie and Anthony, like Willie Kennedy and Frank West to make up a strong team. The freshmen took it to their oppo- nents without fear to prove them- selves worthy of being called Cou- gars!
