Two sophomore basketball teams were formed. Besides competing in their league, they also had oppor- tunities to scrimmage with each other. Near the end of the season, the sophomore Gold beat in succession the two first place teams in the league. HWe were finally playing up to our potential, commented Coach Hank Jarvitz. The Gold team achieved a final record of 12 6. jack Sonntag felt he had coached an excellent team. With a final record of 15-3, the sophomore Green won their last seven games to tie with the two Lincoln teams for first place in the league. All players looked good as prospects for junior varsity and varsity teams, and the future seemed bright for upcoming Falcon basketball seasons.
