EIGHTH GRADE TEAM GAINS EXPERIENCE Enthusiasm and spirit ushered in the eighth grade football season. The game statistics, 1-4, do not ex- press the hard-fought and close games and the de- termined effort of each player. The team, coached by Guy Davis, showed marked improvement as the season progressed and defeated Tucker 13 to 7 in the highlight game of the year. Outstanding players for the entire season were Steve Bolton, Bill Jenkins, Cookie Edwards, Bubba Zyglocke, Larry Talley, Charles Davis, Joe Rupp, Mark Bryan, and Mac Fisher.

JV. BASKETBALL TEAM PLAYS IN TOURNAMENT Hustle, teamwork, and an effective press were the main ingredients in the J.V.’s success. The team fin- ished second in the J.V. league, compiling a record of 15 wins and 4 losses. This equals the best record of any Henrico J.V. team. Ten players earned letters for their efforts during the season. Ray Butler, with a 10.7 average and Ron- nie Vest, with a 10.4 average, were the leading scor- ers. George Andrews was the leading rebounder with an 8.8 per game average. High points of the season came against arch-rival Tucker. In the first Tucker game the team reached two seasonal highs by shooting 58.5% and scoring 73 points. In the second Tucker game after trailing 24 to 1 at the end of the first quarter, the team came back to win 67-64 in overtime. By virtue of their second place finish, the J.V. played John Marshall’s J.V. in the Capital District Tournament. They lost to John Marshall by a score of 46-43. us) RECORD Henrico 49 Varina 32 Henrico 55 George Wythe 38 Henrico 52 Douglas Freeman 38 Henrico 59 Hermitage 49 Henrico 42 Highland Springs 40 Henrico 61 John Marshall 64 Henrico 73 Tucker aye) Henrico 40 Lane 35 Henrico 43 Thomas Jefferson 36 Henrico 66 George Wythe Sif Henrico 42 Highland Springs 34 Henrico 39 John Marshall 42 Henrico 67 (Overtime) Tucker 64 Henrico 53 Hermitage 40 Henrico 54 Lane 39 Henrico 39 Thomas Jefferson 42 Henrico 35 Douglas Freeman 33 Henrico 54 Varina 42

EIGHTH GRADERS ARE UNDEFEATED Henrico’s basketball fortunes appeared bright as Coach Dick Cox’s eighth grade cagers crushed all op- position, compiling an 8-0 record. Long hours of practice had to be scheduled around the varsity and junior varsity teams, and most games were played on Saturday mornings. The team scored two victories each against Patrick Henry, Varina, and Tucker, and also defeated Lee- Davis and St. Paul’s. In the first game against arch-rival Tucker, the scoring was close, the Warriors topping the Tigers by 46 to 42. Although the Warriors started slowly in the second meeting, a second-half spurt put them ahead to stay, 42-36. A team high score of 83 points was established against the Blue Devils of Varina. Coach Cox em- ployed every player in setting a tremendous scoring pace. High scorers for the team included Norman Ed- wards, Jackie Bostain, Larry Talley, Steve Bolton, and Bubba Zyglocke. Rebounding strength was largely due to the talents of Edwards, Talley, and Mark Bryan. 117 RECORD Henrico 25 Patrick Henry 18 Henrico 37 St. Paul 11 Henrico 49 Varina 39 Henrico 83 Varina 35 Henrico 46 Tucker 42 Henrico 46 Lee Davis 34 Henrico 42 Tucker 36 Henrico 62 Patrick Henry 51
