12 THE PIONEER ATHLETICS. BASKET BALL. Among the events which caused excitement in Goshen during the winter 1904-’03 the girls’ basket ball games were paramount. The captain of the team deserves great credit for her leadership and management. No one knows but by experience the difficulties to be overcome in managing such an organization. The first game of the season was played with Newburgh Free Academy at Goshen, resulting in a victory for Goshen with a score of 22 to 0. Games with New Paltz proved defeats for the Goshen girls. This was not surprising as the New Paltz team was much heavier than the Goshen team. Two games played with Cornwall-on-Hudson were victories for the Goshen girls with scores 22-8 and 7-4. The first game played with the Phalanx Physical Culture Club of Newburgh, resulted in a score of 10-9 in favor of Newburgh, but on their home grounds the Goshen girls beat them, score 22-7. Two games played with St. John’s school resulted in Goshen High School getting scores of 39-1 and 19-0. The “ regulars ” and 44 subs ” played an exhibition game to fill the time until the Monroe boys’ team should arrive. The former won by a score of 19-5. On the ground that the Phalanx Physical Culture Club Team would not play a deciding game, and New Paltz is not in Orange County, the Goshen girls concluded that they were entit led to the championship of Orange County. The line up of the first team is as follows : Sara D. Sharts, captain, r. f.; Frances Strack, 1. f.; Ethel Slaughter, c.; Nina Gurney, r. g;. Amy Fair-child, 1. g. The Second Team : Teresa Byrne, first sub.; Flora Gilson, 2nd sub.; Helen Trott, Fannie Jackson, Hannah Hedges and Kathryn Ilayne. The officers of the Basket Ball Association are Sarah I). Sharts, Pres.; Jennie S. Bassett, Treas.; Amy Fairchild, Secretary; Miss Louise E. Cooley, Manager. The presentation of a gold-mounted fountain pen by the association to Mr. Baskerville made a fitting climax to the successful season. V., '05. The basket ball season was for the High School of Goshen a remarkably successful one. The basket ball team of 1904-1905 has created a name for itself which the schools with whom she played may long remember. The two games with Middletown High School resulted in easy victories for Goshen. The two games played with the Warwick Y. M. C. A. will probably be remembered at least by the players who were on that team. Two games were played with Newburgh Free Academy. One resulted in victory for Newburgh and the other was a victory for Goshen. The same was true of the games played with Monroe and New Paltz. But while we were defeated in three instances each team that had defeated us declined to play off the resulting tie on neutral ground. This team also defeated the 24th Separate Co., of Middle-town. On our own or on a standard sized floor the team was never defeated. Therefore we consider that the basket ball championship of Orange County belongs to Goshen High School. F. H. P., ’05. TENNIS. In the O. C. I. A. A. tennis tournament held at Middletown on June 10, ’05, Messrs. T. T. Tuthill and J. J. Landy were defeated in the doubles after a gallant struggle. Mr. Landy also was unable to wrest the honors in the singles from Mr. J. G. Ayres, of Port Jervis. TRACK TEAM. The track team was quite successful in the O. O. I. A. A. track meet held on the Goshen Driving Park, on May 30th, 1905. Out of eight men on the team, two men won 22 points which gave Goshen third place in the meet. BASEBALL TEAM. The baseball team of Goshen High School, ’05, has won the only two games it has played so far, both being with Warwick High School. We trust that the future two games will prove equally successful. —We notice that the 44 ’04 ” member hasn’t secured her earl yet. —Sadie Sharts, of 44’05” thinks basket ball and athletics a pretty big pill to swallow.
