Gabriels captures first District Championship The 1968 varsity season was highlighted by the District Championship, a tie for 2nd place in the league, 2nd place in the Holiday Tournament, and the greatest of all-beating O'Rafferty twice. This year's great team overcame a long losing streak to start a winning season of their own over the Raiders with two big victories of 74-45 and 72-57. ln the first year of the Holiday Tournament Gabriels again proved itself superior over Class A schools losing only to state-ranked East Lansing for the champion- ship. After a tremendous season ended, the final record read 15-7. All of this success can be attributed to the concern and guidance shown by one of the finest coaches in the state, Mr. Cook.

Under their guid- ance the quality of players became apparent, a 4-2 season attesting to this. Al Harvey, in his new position as freshman football coach, guided his promising frosh to a 6-1 season. Only one touchdown and a few extra points kept this team from a perfect season, a feat that eluded all three Gabriel teams this year. Between the Junior Varsity and the Frosh team is the team of tomorrow, shaping up in the best of Ga- briells tradition.
