Bask Let's dance. 'L etball Statistically the J.V. team broke even with seven wins and six losses, but actually they had an extremely rewarding season. One of the biggest challenges was welding the group into a team that worked and thought as one. By the end of the season it was evident that unity and coordina- tion had been achieved, the victory reports began to roll in. Thus the season ended on the upgrade and we look to members of that team to accom- plish fine records in the years to come. J .V. BASKETBALL G. C. Marshall 27 . .,..,....,.,....... G. Mason 45 G. C.

Inspired by this victory, the Fighting Statesmen raged on to defeat the experienced Mustangs of George Mason, 43-42.
