Although the team played well, luck was just not with them as was the case in their first league game it was won by San Leandro 76-73. The game went into three overtimes before the Gauchos ran out of steam. The second game which was won by Pinole Valley also went into over- time. The final score of that game was 67-64. The Gau- chos lost their next four games to Kennedy, Richmond, Encinal, and DeAnza before scoring their first win 81- 73 against the Alameda Hornets. The highlight of the first half of the season was a brilliant victory over the highly-rated Berkeley Yellow jackets by the score of 67-65. Junior Guard Dave Morgan was the game's high scorer with 27 points as he sparkled both on of- fense and defense. Other first-half standouts were junior Center Ken Brown who averaged 16 points per game in the first ten games, senior Guards Greg Per- kins and John Panerio and second year varsity For- ward Bryan Scott.
