Basketball team provided many thrills for the fans who saw them play. Twenty-one boys participated with the team and all twenty- one gave 100 per cent credit for this year’s team’s success from the simple fact of teamwork and improvement from game to game. Each boy had a little different type of talent, which, when blended together, made for a great hustling team. “Il would have to say, without a doubt our finest game of the year was our second game against CDO’s “‘giant’s.’’ CDO's boys were super-tall and by using the varsity’s patented fast break, we were able to beat them by more than 20 points,’’ says Coach Engbretson.

The freshmen started out by winning the opening game, and through the first half of the season they won 4 and lost 4. During the last half of the season they had a 4 game win- ning streak which helped them to win 6 of the last 9 games. Their success in the latter part of the season was due to the fact that the boys finally found out that playing as a team is much more successful. Another reason was the fact that the boys who were not Starters and substitutes in the actual game did a tremendous job in practices. They didn’t get the recognition that they de- served, but the team wouldn’t have been the same without them.

Wrestling team finished the season with 10 wins against only 2 losses. “‘It wasn’t our best year, but it was a good one, Coach Mark La- tham reported. We didn’t have the over all depth needed to win the really tough ones, but we have some real fine ath- lete’s who will help considera- bly on Varsity in the future.”” Coach Latham singled out, Junior Son Valdez (133 Ib. Class), Sophomores, Joe Sierra (112 Ib. Class), Paul Hannon (127 Ib. Class), and Rickie Don (138 Ib. Class), for special praise as each boy went through the season undefeated and untied. When a team goes through 10 meets undefeated and un- tied it deserves whatever praise may come its way. This year’s Frosh team beat the best in the city. Scoring wins over such AAA teams as Sunnyside, Rin- con, Amphi, and Palo Verde and finishing the season with a 58-5 victory on visiting Buena. “If these boys continue as they are with their willingness to learn and work they can be the future State Champions’ remarked Coach Pete Katchou. 1968-69 Junior Varsity Wrestling Scoreboard FLW.
