11 SENIOR HIGH BASKETBALL One of the best teams ever to play for Gilbert and probably the one which will be remembered longest walked off the floor with the section 50 championship under their belt on February 4 and 5 in the Logan gym.. They knocked off the highly louded Iaeger team in their first game by the score of 51-40 and came back the next night to overcome Chapmansville 54-50. The Iaeger team could not discover the L1on's defense. They thought it man to man but it was coach Cl1ne's fastly becoming famous 'Sliding Zone.N The defense worked very effectively against Iaeger but man to man was necessary to stop Chap ansville. n the Iaeger game Richard Ellis probably could be picked as the boy whm 'saved' the game. He played a brilliant floor game and figured pro- minently in controlling the backboards after center Dave Mulkey was pulled out for last minute use. Cline was the high point man with 19 points. Donald Ellis certainly played the best game of his career at the Chapmansville game. Placed on the all-tournament team from Gilbert were Cline, Mul- key, and Blankenship. Robinette of Gilbert would also have been placed on the all-tournament team had it not given too much rating to Gilbert over other schools. INDIVIDUAL RECORD OF PLAYERS PLAYER YEAR IN Pos.
