Basketball The Jewell High School boys basketball season started with a team of 8 members: Senior Mark Jackson, Junior Pat Potts, Sophomores Don Irvine, Dean Foster, and Ward Vandehey, and Freshmen Doug Rodgers, Tim Crawford, and Neil Vandehey. Juniors Skip Jensen and Scott Frazier joined the team midseason enabling the Bluejays to have a Junior Varsity team. The Bluejay's only Senior, Mark Jackson was the Sunset Empire's scoring leader, averaging 29.8 pts. per game. Mark was also named to the lst team All-Stars for Casco B league. The team voted Dean Foster - Mr. Hustle, Pat Potts - Most Improved, and Mark Jackson - Most Valuable, Most Inspirational, and Defensive Player of the Year. The boys also contributed to help the Jewell Bluejays get the Sportsmanship Trophy. This award was based on the appearance, attitude, and behavior of the teams, coaches, and rally squad, as well as the performances of the team All- Stars. The coaches from all the teams in the league voted for this award. It was presented to members of both Jewell teams who were present at the District championship game. During the season the boys took an active part in after-the-game bus ( An 1-A technical call against the other coach brings a smile from Skip Jensen, Coach Wilkin, Scott Frazier, Ward and Neil Vandehey. 2-Pat Potts shoots a free throw as Mark Jackson, Don Irvine » and Falls City team members await the outcome of the shot. 18 Basketball activities and contests to answer questions such as: How far can a spit wad be shot? How much barley is it possible to hit an unsuspecting target with? Who screams the loudest with ice down their shirt? Who's hair does the tape stick the best in? How many feathers are there really, in Cheryl's pillow? How many peopole does it take to smother someone who is trying to sleep? How many firecrackers can you set off before the coach catches on? How many peanuts can you pile on Mr. Wilkin as he sleeps? Answers to all of these questions and many more were answered due to contributions the girls gave in the activities and contests. At the end of the season, the PTO, represented by Pat Foster and Bev Jackson, gave the boys an end-of-the- season party, complete with cake and lemonade. This party, of which there was also one for the girls team, sparked a desire for a post-season all-basketball- team party. The result was a weekend in Kah-nee-tah, with the Basketball teams, raily squad, advisors, and coaches. They swam in the sunshine, swam in the moonshine, ate hot dogs, climbed hills, sat by the fire, met girls, -sleptq7) in teepees, and returned home, exhausted, Sunday afternoon.

Basketball This year's team, coached by Tom Lonergan, consisted of: returning lettermen - Senior Tana Hill, Juniors Debbi Wood and Connie Rinkes, Sophomores Wendy Robinson, Tami Jackson, Carol Adamson, and Julie Rinkes; and new members who were transfer students Senior Janice Reeher and Sophomore Donna Reeher. The team had an exciting year. They participated, along with Cascade Locks, Arlington, and Oregon Episcopal School (OES), in a tournament at OES. The team finished 4-2 in league, second only to Valsetz, and went to playoffs for District at Oregon State School of the Deaf. After two of their games, one at Woodburn and the other at Oregon State School of the Deaf, with Detroit, the girls and spectators went swimming. The boys team had the privilege of sitting in the back of the bus on the way to all of the away games. To alleviate the disadvantage of being towards the front of the bus, the girls serenaded the boys with song. Three of the girls were named to all-star teams this season. Tana Hill and Tami Jackson - ist team. Debb i Wood - 2nd team. The girls were also an important factor in the winning of the Casco B league Sportsmanship trophy received by Jewell. Representatives from both teams were on hand to receive this trophy after the District Championship game. Other awards received by the girls were: MOST VALUABLE PLAYER- Tami Jackson, MOST INSPIRATIONAL PLAYER- Debbi Wood, MOST IMPROVED- Janice Reeher, and two new awards - We're glad you're a member of our team award- Tana Hill, and Most Intelligent Player- Janice Reeher.
