The Eagles’ basketball record was rather overshadowed by the success of soccer. The team won four and lost ten. The calibre of the team seemed to vary considerably throughout the season. At times they seemed like champions, and at other times like first graders. Nevertheless the team had fight and enjoyed making the best teams show their best, now and then beating a less-impressive team. The team seemed to hold its own during each first half against the host teams, but the second half always proved to be their downfall. In Schuyler ville the score was tied at the third quarter, and the Black Horses had to call upon Lady Luck for some of their long set shots on the small court. The Eagles had an even series with their rivals, Cor- inth, each winning one. ()ii tlie team were Norm Perkins and Dick Fowler co-captains, Kay Denton, dim Priddy, Fred O’Hare, Henry Denton, and Wavnc Hawk.
