SEN 0 VAIQS T The results of the 1945-1946 basketball season were quite gratifying. Our Export High Basketball team under the superb guidance of Coach Bruce McHail accomplished an amazing record of 19 wins against 3 losses for the entire basketball campaign. Also, the feat of remaining undefeated while winn- ing I2 games in Sectional play speaks for itself as such a record ing I2 games in Sectional play speaks for itself as such a record was made possible by the splendid spirit and beautiful team work of the squad as a whole. The season was a success from all points of view. Hilty, forward: Pavliak, forward: Wulchin, center: Biesnz, guard: and Visnic, guard: proved to be a fine nucleus around which Coach Mcllail developed a strong winn- ing con'-bination. Their. defense was almost airtight, thev showed fine offensive strength and together with their brilliant floor work produced one of the tlinest records here at Export High. Two boys who were alwavs on hand whenever needed were two first-class,performers Long antd Chuppe who demon- strated that they could fill any position readilv. Biesuz, Hiilty and Pavliak will be lost through graduation, but wtith the re- turn of Wulchin, Yisnic, Long and Chuppe much is expected for the 11946-47 season. To the unsung heroes, the Managers, Skerkoske and Luscri goes much deserved pralise for their fine efficient manner in carrying out their duties the past season.
