V 's Gain Valuable Experience Through Seasonal Plan The junior varsity basketball team began 1972 play with high hopes and determination. The three returning players, twelve Eagle beginners, and the new coach worked hard to make a cohesive unit of the team. Four straight Wins in as many opening games brought great optimism to supporters of the young teamg however, the scores at the end ofthe next five games found Eastern in the loss column. During the balance of the season, the J.V. players traded wins and losses to end with a 9-9 over-all mark. In confer- ence standings, the team finished fourth with a 7-9 total. Eastern drew Northeast Guilford as an opponent in the opening round of mid-state tournament play and went down to defeat 69 to 55. The experience gained during this season will be valuable to both the coach and team members and should be helpful for the 1973 J.V. and varsity teams.

Girls Suffer Through a Discouraging Season p - Hard work, optimism, several returning lettermen, talented new additions to the squad, dedicated coaches - this combination should have produced a winning season for the Eaglettes. However, when the record was posted, the Eastern players found them- selves in eighth position in the conference. The team and fans were disappointed, of course, to gain so few wins in a long and grueling season, but the enthusiasm of the players never dampened and each challenge was met with confidence. No doubt the team members and coaches will be able to capitalize on the experience of the 1972 season and produce a winning combination for 1973. Carol Dixon goes in for an easy lay-up.
