We defeated Weeks School, Jericho, and Shelburne for three league wins good enough for fourth place in the Champlain Valley League. The team had no one outstanding player or high-scorer. On the first team during the year were Bobby Plante, Bobby Francis, ,Toby Parent, Conrad Ballard, Ernest Millham, Pat Pal er, John Pierce and Howard Riggs. Other players were Leroy Smliih, Paul Traux, Tommy Shea, Paul Emmons, Sidney Pierce, Stanley Bissonette, and Richard Mitchell. The fact that three Senior boys will not be back next year does not darken the hopes for next year because the seventh and eighth team finished first in their league. The boys selected Howard Riggs and Toby Parent as Co-Captains. Thomas Palmer was Manager and Richard Aube was Assistant Manager.
