VARSITY BASKKETBALL TEAM Bollom Row: Grady Elli , Steve Sidari, Pat Barker, Wayne Bellci. Top Row: Tom Peyton. Hugh Scyfarth, Buzzy Joseph, Joe Borgini. Mr. Hammcrbcrg, coach. Sharpshooters Coach Wally Hammcrbcrg’s varsity had their moments of glory. Although they only won two of fifteen contests against league opponents, they had a five and one record in non-league games. Joe Borgini was second in league scoring and was among the best centers in the area. He possessed a deadly hook shot and was a constant threat from the outside. Buzzy Joseph, Hugh Scyfarth, Steve Sidari. Wayne Bellei and Pat Barker were the senior standouts, while juniors Tom Peyton and Grady Ellis excelled. Toward the end of the season there was marked improvement in their overall game. The high point of the year came in the second to last game when the Parkers swamped New Trier by twenty-one points. The sophomores, coached by Mr. Baldrini, had a mcdiocorc season. However, they did look sharp at times. Shelly Erikson, Marty Gmeiner and Tony Gualandri led the sophs. With improved shooting they may be a serious threat in the league in future seasons. Page 20
