This year wc were short on num- bers. With only 12 people out we divided the total into an A team and a b team. This way we got experience for every player as every one had a lot of playing time. Wc had an excellent A team, and as the B team gained experience, it added to the success of the A team. The A team had a record of 12 wins and 5 losses. They also won the championship of the Egan tour- nament. Three of the five losses were by 4 or less points. The major strengths of the team were a posi- tive attitude, a willingness to learn, and a never give up philosophy, along with great team work. The major weakness was a lack of depth. The B team had 2 wins in 11 games. Their major strength was the fact that they want to learn. They gained experience and got some of the basics down. This is just a starting point but if they keep this willingness to learn, and spend time working on their game; they can change their season around next year.

TEAM FLOURISHES TO A 17-1 YEAR The B team had a very prosper- ous year. Our 17-1 record reflected the amount of time the boys devot- ed in the off-season. This team was the best prepared team I've had at the start of the season. They were good athletes with the mental toughness to go hard when they were down and to win the tough ball games. Their conduct on and off the court reflected their compe- tiveness and character. I think they will have a bright future ahead of them if they continue to work at being their very best in all aspects of their lives. Comments by Coach DeBoer.
