Varsity Basketball Team Goes Through Aces 1976-77 Basketball Team coached by Mr. Tom Hallett wasn't as successful as last years' squad, but managed to end the season with an 8-12 slate . Lack of experience in the line up was the key to the Aces up and down season, although underclassmen Mitch Slattery, Steve Thiel, and Tom Turnbull fought hard all season to contribute to the Aces attack. Seniors Randy Headley, Jeff Kline, Steve Snyder, and Jim Stimmel made for a solidly balanced squad. Junior Bob Luderman also added his talents to the teams offensive charge. During the course of the season, the Aces couldn't put it all together, but towards the middle of the year, the squad started playing team basketball. The lat- ter part of the year consisted of up and down playing as the Aces would win every other game. Tournament action showed more of the same as the Aces won the first game but fell to Spencer Sharples in the Sectional Finals '70-69. Stimmel was named to the first team in both the Green Meadows and Buckeye Border Conferences. He also was voted to the second team of the District and he also was named as a State Honorable Mention. Headley was voted to the sec- ond team in both the GMC and the BBC. He also received honorable mention in the district. A 9 .

Girls' Basketball Teams Look to Future The 1977 Hicksville Girls' Basketball squads went different routes as the varsity compiled a mediocre 7-8 record and the reserves finished a fine 12-2. In the opening round of tournament the Aces drew unbeaten and eventual state champ Delphos St. John who easily defeated them. All year long the Aces were led by two time MVP Lori Kreg, a senior, and sophomore gunner Jodee Peters. Lori set a school record for most rebounds in a single game.
