Because of the evenly matched teams in the league this year, Del Campo's Sophomore basketball team finished in 4th place while only three games out of the number one position. The Cougars tallied a 9- 5 league and an 11-6 overall record this season and also took 2nd place in the Ponderosa Tournament. Mr. Chappin, the coach of the Sophs, explained that there were a great many this year. Most games were determined by a couple of points, and so it was against San Juan at home. Down by 12 at one point, the Cougars rallied back to win in overtime and knock the Spartans out of lst place. Outstanding players for the season included team captain, Gary Waits, Mark Faulkner, Doug Murphy and Mark Gittins. Gittins was the top scorer, averaging 17,5 points per game. 2,.

l Revenge was what the Girls' Varsity basketball team was looking for in their second meeting with Flio Americano this year, and revenge is what they got. After a disappointing loss away, Del Campo added home court advantage and the power of psych together to beat the Raiders, 50-40. The game handed Rio its only loss of the season besides those to conference leader, Bella Vista. Co-coaches Jo Talcott and Val Ruszovan agreed that, because of a height disadvantage, it required a Super Effort by all to win this year. The team's 3rd place standing in the C.V.C. illustrated that effort. The accomplishment of a 9-8 overall and 7- 7 league record was attributed, Coach Talcott said, to the fact that the team worked hard all year Iong. Nancy Pettit and Belinda Martineau were the co-captains of this year's Varsity and, along with Laura O'Donnell, made up the top three scorers for the season. Outstanding defensive players were Nancy Petitt, with the most rebounds, and Belinda Martineau who had the most assists. Freshman Madelyn Bradfield was the Most Improved Player of the year. Voted Most Inspirational was Belinda and the Most Valuable Player on the team was Nancy. sszzimmg sseytwm .sw WMM ' ':' ,, A wx sims is R N S s. .... ..,.
