- — Varsity Climbs Higher TAT c were always in VV that required a tea a situation L-quirea a team effort to win, said coach Mike Bartce, and be- cause of great team play, the boys ' varsi- ty basketball team almost always won. Bringing home two tournament cham- pionships, another Ivy League title, and playing great against Saddleback in CIF, the Huskies were successful in continu- ing their winning tradition. We had five kids who could score dou- ble-digit figures every night, remem- bered coach Bartee. But our success de- pended upon them all working together as a team. Winning the Irvine Invitational of Or- ange County, their seventh Riverside Holiday Classic in-a-row, and placing second in the Gene Hughes Invitational, the Huskies proved to be a good tourna- ment team. This was, in part, due to their strong foundation of stamina. I ' ll al- ways remember the conditioning, said senior Andy Johnson, It was almost crazy, but it made us a better team. Ac- cording to coach Bartee, however, It was just a lot of mileage. Whatever the case, the stamina of the team always kept them going strong. Showcasing a 25-1-0 record, the team went into CIF against Saddleback at home and put on a show few would for- get. At one time in the game, the Huskies had multiplied their opponent ' s score by five and eventually they beat Saddleback by 22 points, 77-55.
