Pre-season newspaper stories predicted a balanced sixth re- gion with Doss an experienced team led by seniors Terrance Moorman, Spence Shipley, and Maurice Jones.

Gathering momentum, the boys moved into the heart of the schedule and reeled off eight victories as they climbed to fifth in the entire state according to the Litkenhous ratings before losing to then-ranked 32 P.R.P. Overwhelming victories over Fairdale, North Hardin. and Bardstown Bethlehem put us back on the victory track as the squad end- ed the regular season with I8 wins and 7 losses. Having earned the right to play Beth Haven in the first game of the 23rd District, the boys won by a score of IIO to 32 and advanced to the final ag highly regarded Valley.
