THE SEASON After the football togs were put in moth balls, Coach Edson issued the call for can' didates for the maple court, With all of last year's second team and four first team lettermen back. Foster's hopes for a winning team were very bright. Several practice games were arranged with other schools in which the Bulldogs came out on top. The league season opened at home with Richmond Beach. who fell before the local boys by a score of 28 to 18. The next two tilts were merely practice games for the home team, Redmond losing 30 to 19 and Kirkland taking a 38 to 17 beating. The Bulldogs struck a snag when they journeyed to Bothell, losing a hard fought game to the 1927 State Champions by an 18 to 13 score. The Bulldogs handed Bellevue a 31 to 18 drubbing in the next contest. Starting the second half of the season the Bulldogs dropped a 12 to 10 decision to Richmond Beach ,and with that game a tie for the title. Redmond. the next victim. was handed one on the button by the tune of 49 to 15 while Kirkland was not so easy. the local boys winning in an overftime period by a 20 to 18 score. Then came the Bothell game, Backed by confidence and some Hve hundred basket ball fans the greatest satisfaction of the season came when the Bulldogs handed the Bothell team a 14 to 12 lacing in one of the hardest fought and most exciting games seen on the local floor. As the Bothell team was the State Champion of 1927, this vic' tory meant very much to the Foster Team. In the Hnal game of the season the Bulldogs defeated Bellevue in a ragged game in the Bellevue cracker box by a 10 to 9 score. The end of the season found the Bulldogs riding in second place. The second team played in the same league as the Grst team and occupied second place when the season ended. As the second team consisted mostly of Freshmen. Fosf ter's future on the basket ball lloor is very promising. Ihigi' Tllirlvfsix
