Basketball Season ' BY GREGG MCBRIDE '16 A Good basketball is tradition at Jackson high school and. the 1933 Red and Wliite team, carefully polished under the watchful eye of Coach Ralph Beechner, carried high the Jackson standard of the cage sport. In spite of a discouraging outlook which found Sherman Elrod the only letterman from the 1932 Greater Jos, 'WX Lincoln championship team, Jackson soon found its stride and at the time of the regional and state tourna ,7 ments was rated as one of the outstanding teams in Nebraska. 4,1235 The 1933 campaign opened with Bethany receiving a 23 to S defeat on the Jackson court during the holi- xsljgd days. Holdrege, a new-comer to Jackson schedules, came out of the southwest to lose a 21 to 15 game. Then came Nebraska Deaf, 1931 state champs, to lose 25 to 9 to the Red and White. - . The Greater Lincoln League opened its season by Jackson meeting its first defeat at the hands of College View in several seasons of competition with the neighbor school. Eno, center, led the College Yiew scoring while Barrett and Elrod looked the best for Jackson. The score was 28 to 23. Jackson regained its stride the following week by walloping Teachers high, 29 to 10. A two-game road trip brought a pair of thrilling contests. After holding Hastings 18 to 14 with five min- utes to go, the Jackson efense weakened and the Tigers rolled in six baskets to win the game 30 to 16. The lead alternated in a wild game the next night as Kearney nipped Jackson, 26 to 24. Nickel was the big shot for Kearney while Martin set the pace for Jackson. Then came the traditional game with Havelock, Jackson playing fine ball to win on the Shoptown court, 22 to 17. Crete, the 1932 state champion. invaded Jackson next and broke away for 19 points during the second quarter to win 32 to 23. The Jackson defense also crumpled in the dying moments at Fairbury and the Jef- ferson county boys won 27 to 18, Martin and Powers playing go'od ball for the Red and YVhite. The high spot of the season was the big game with Lincoln. The gymnasium was packed and the game was played to a bedlam of noise. Jackson leading most of the way. Lincoln came from behind in the last few seconds to win the game 16 to 15. Elrod's long try at a basket, which would have won the game, dipped in and gut Just as the gun sounded. Powers was the bright light in a brilliant Jackson team which almost upset e ope. . Jackson won a 28 to 25 victory at Wymore and then came home to repeat a former win at the expense of Havelock, 23 to 22. Neumann, Beatrice forward, was too much for Jackson in the next game. The Queen City ace got 21 points and Beatrice won a 34 to 30 thriller. Cathedral was downed 27 to 14. Another' thriller was the Bethany game. Bethany led 19 to 9 at the half but Jackson came back strong and Barrett s long archer from past the center of the floor swished through the net to win the game for Jack- son, 25 to-24. The victory enabled Jackson to finish in a tie with the Lincoln Reserves for second place in the Greater Lincoln League standings. In t.he regional tournament Jackson beat Wahoo, Saunders county champion, in the first round, 18 to 9: downed Syracuse of the Mudecas league, 17 to 13, in the second game and lost to Lincoln in the semi-finals, 12 to 30. In the game for third place honors Jackson trounced the highly touted Milford team, 19 to 11. Four Jackson men-Martin, Elrod, Barrett and Powers-were named on the Lincoln Star all-Greater Lin- coln league Honor Roll. Barrett and Powers were named for all-regional tourney recognition. Prospects are bright for next year. Elrod, Lowell, and McAfee are the only lettermen being graduated. Veterans expected to answer Coach Beechner's call next winter are Barrett, Martin, Strom, Fitz, Powers. Davis, and Hansen.. In addition some valuable material may be expected from the reserve team which made a fine showing during a 19-game schedule. wwsawww wwww www MJACKS QN HIGH SCHQQI-,sa Page Thirtyffive
