Coaches se ect seven to II-District team Success in any program demands dedication from participation as well as guidance from leaders. Such teamwork was demonstrated on all levels of the cage program with the ultimate rewards of varsity players being named by district coaches as top players. Seven players proved themselves outstanding athletes as well as individu- als. Those who made a place for themselves on the first team were Jon Hughes and Byron Tully. Hughes led the team in scoring and in rebounding with 196 points and 148 grabs. Tully was the second Deer Park player selected on the First Team hitting 65 of 170 attempts from the field for 146 points and nabbing 142 rebounds. Equally as fortunate on the Second Team, the Deer had three members selected. Robert Riley earned a slot with 178 points. David Simmons was third in the point section with 151 points. He scored in double figures in 10 of the 12 games. Dean Endres rounded out the Second Team with 67 total points for the season. Nicky Snell and Byron Moake played well enough to earn an honorable mention rating from district coaches. Snell and Moake, both juniors, finished the district competition with 91 and 67 points, respectively. The selection of the All'District Team wound up a 30-4 season. A. Junior Byron Moake shoots from the outside in the first round match up against LaPorte. Moake's height and ability were valuable assets against the varied types of defense. B. With but two games left in the regular season, the cagers had their work cut out for them. They came through in a must win situation with a 53-50 victory over the Falcons from Clear Lake to set up a playoff game. Robert Riley and Jon Hughes meet at mid-court to congratulate each other on the victory. C. Head trainer Doc Smith assists senior Brad Crawford with a contact lens. D. Ray Landers, head basket- ball coach, gives last second instruction before Simmons throws it in. Landers was chosen last year by state coaches as Coach of the Year. E. Executing a jump shot from just outside the key, senior Byron Tully, voted All-District First Team, exhibits his form. ln this second round opening Tully scored 13 points and led the team with 16 rebounds. F. Junior Nicky Snell goes up against two Eagle opponents. Snell played excellent basketball this year and was voted to the All-tournament Team at West Orange. G. Simmon's mastery of dribbling enables him to run through three Bulldog opposers. H. Hughes drives for the basket despite Wildcat opposition. Hughes improved on his performance of last year by consistently scoring in double figures this year. . , 1 i , 2, J-, 1 . l - 1 if 9 5 ' . '-, Q -'i - . :iff 1z'3i'x,',,J .
