Front Row: Joe McOwen, Bob Shannon, Dennis Donovan, John O'Connor tCap't,l Ed Bugnaziet, Jack Fenton, Red Brophy. Back Row: Coach Bob Kirnard, Mike McLoughlin tMgr.l, Joe Dinolfo, Jim McLoughlin, Larry Collomore, Tom Comparata, Bob Doherty, Brother McAda ms tModeratorJ. The l95l-52 lona varsity basketball team will be written into the record book as the greatest to ever take the court for our school. Under the superb coaching of Bob Kirnard, the Irish cagers compiled a record of l6 wins and 3 losses during the regular season. They became the first lona team to receive an invitation to the Eastern States Basketball Tourna- ment, held annually at Glens Falls, N. Y. In opening the season the team thoroughly outplayed and outclassed Sacred Heart, beating them by a score of SO to 47. Next came wins over New Rochelle, Fordham and Bellows. Then came a heartbreaking loss to Horace Mann, The team got back into step with wins over Concordia Stepinac, Harrison, Sacred Heart, New Rochelle, Stepinac and Columbia Grammar. ln their first encounter with Blessed Sacrament, the team played well, but it was the Cardinal's night and B,S. came out on the long end of a 56 to 53 score. In a slump, the squad suffered a humiliating defeat from a weak Pelham High School quintet. The game was marred by sloppy play and a very poor shooting percentage on our part, while Pelham had a hot day. After such a jolt, the Fighting Irish came off the floor and blasted their way through Hackley, Harrison, Blessed Sacrament and Rye, thus ending the regular season with an impressive l6 won--3 lost record. ln the Westchester Private and Parochial School tourney, lona was paired off against Stepinac, for its first game, whom we had beaten twice. The Crusaders grabbed an early lead and played a very strong game to retain that lead to win by 2 slim points, 48 to 46. With this defeat ending the season on a sour note, the irish looked ahead to better things. 79
