Team Dope Sheet The girls basketball team this year won 3 out of 21 games. They had quite a few close games but not until the Sectional Tournament did they win their first game. They beat Pleasant Plain the first night of the tournament in an overtime by 2 points, with a final score of 34-36. The second game they played in the tourna- ment was another victory for our girls over Packwood with a score of 38-26. They lost against Batavia in the Consolation. The third game won by the Eldon sextette was with Eddyville which resulted from an overtime. The final score for that game was 24-20. Dorthy Jo Aeschliman and Marsha Tynan were outstanding guards. Bonnie Hemm and Joyce Phillips were high scorers for this year and Carol Hemm was chosen as Captain with Joyce Phillips as co-captain. The boys’ basketball team did very well this year by winning 14 out of 1 7 games and having a 5-3 record. The Pirate Five were overthrown by the Bullpups in the County Tournament. They had many close games, either in their or their opponents favor. Our boys about doubled the score on quite a few of the other teams. They beat Douds 56-20 and Packwood 50-26. The Eldon vs Farson game was an exciting game with the Pirates winning by 1 point, 33-32. The Agency boys beat our lads by 1 point when there, but, the return game was a good size victory for Eldon boys with final score of 57-39. Bill Hancock was chosen as captain of the squad this year. Boddy Glotfelty, Bill Hancock, and Deb Allen were outstanding hitters this season. Bob Cole, Norman Penrod, and Garry Phillips were outstanding on defense. In baseball the boys did very well, winning 5 out of 7 games. Losing one to Keosauqua in an eight inning with a point loss. The other one was lost to Douds also by one point. The biggest thrill for the baseball club was whitewashing Batavia 7-0. Batavia was previously undefeated until our local nine got ahold of them. The batting average for the baseball club was 450. The strike-outs for Morrison was 102 with an average of 14 a game. Morrison won 6 and lost 1 while McCoy lost one.
