Pg d lp Pg J G Prospect and Retrospect XYhen the last notes of the referee's whistle mark the end of the athletic year, it is customary to look back over the path that has been traveled. reviewing the successed and failures. At the same time the oncoming teams are bidding for our attention and the strength or weakness of the available material ever proves a topic for speculation. The 1921 foot hall season is the first to deserve attention. Un- der a rather heavy schedule, the team weathered most of the attack sent against it and came out on top. YVhile not all the games were won, yet by far the greatest majority were credited to the Green and XVhite. The fact that 236 points were scored and only 26 scored against them shows that both offensively and defensively the team was strong. But the real strength of the team lay in the splendid spirit that was evident at all time and it is such spirit that makes the winning foot ball. Turning to the basket hall season, we find that a sucessful sea- son was enjoyed as well. The team was handicapped by lack ol proper playing facilities. But in spite of this they played a good hard game at all times and the record of ten games won and three lost, bear out this fact. XVere it not for team work and that never give up spirit, a different story might have been told. As it was Greenville High School again came out with a record of which it can well be proud. The past foot ball season was a successful one and the prospects of the coming season appear just as bright. With a neucleus of eight letter men around which to build a team along with a number of good players lacking only in experience, a team to rival any, should develope. A splendid spirit prevails among the student body and with their cooperation and support, the 1922 team should make an enviable record. The outlook on the 1923 basket ball team while not exception- ally bright in promising. The loss of four of the five regulars of this years team will make a hole hard to fill. But with excellent Fresh- men and Sophomore material along with the available juniors next years prospects are not at all discouraging. So with the school be- hind them a winning combination should make a creditable showing and it is just such a team to which We may look forward. 92

Athletics are rapidly pushing to the front at Greenville High School and two projects are especially opportune. One is the advent of the new High School Building which will be equipped with an up-to-date gymnasium and basl-:et ball floor. A basket ball floor is especially needed at this time and should go far in promoting better teams. The new gym is a certainty, but the other one of the two pro- jects has yet to materialize. However, it is hoped that in the near future the High School will possess a new athletic field. With such a field properly equipped, Greenville High School will rank among the select few who can boast of their own athletic field. Greenville High School can well be proud of the teams that represented her in the seperate sports this year. But success comes to them only after hard work and unceasing effort. ln the end they are rewarded and the best reward of all is that the members of those teams were clean sportsmen and played the game square.
