Varsity Tigers Suffer Through Dismal Season Winning Only 5 The Varsity Tigers were led under the direction of first year coach, Robert Mason. The Tigers opened the season on a high note and with a new look as the “run and gun” Tigers. In the first game, the Tigers out ran the Valmeyer Pirates and the team looked like they would improve on last year’s record. However, things didn’t work that way. The Tigers fell into a horrendous slump losing seven games in a row before finally defeating the Valmeyer Pirates again. This was the team’s second victory in nine games. After the Valmeyer victory, the Tiger cagers began to play much better basketball. They went on to win two of their next five games including a Cahokia Conference victory over the Marissa Meteors. This was the first time in four years that the Tigers have beaten Marissa. The team then lost three conference games in a row before rebounding against West County (St. Louis) in a game the Tigers dominated from the start. The Varsity team closed out their regular season by losing their last three conference games. The Regional Play-Offs followed, and the Tigers were defeated in the first round by the Lovejoy Wildcats for the second straight year. The team ended the season with 1 win and 12 losses in conference action, and 5 wins and 17 losses overall.
