Hoyt commented that many ofthe outstanding freshmen wrestlers will be in contention for a varsity spot next year. These fine wrestlers worked hard to bet- ter themselves. Some of these out- standing wrestlers were Dan Bul- lard, Howell Gaboury, Luis Agu- lar, Brice Zeller, and Andy Santa Cruz who wrestled with varsity most of the year. A good future lies ahead for these wrestlers who are going to be very good next year.

All of them learned by their mis- takes. A few of the boys will go to wrestling camps during the summer and learn new techni- ques, and come back next year and try to make Varsity. The team had an over all record of 3 wins and 8 losses with one forfeit when Scottsdale cancelled. This was Richard Lot's first year as a coach at Kofa and he worked with the boys every day.

New varsitg coach builds sportsmen Kofas' basketball players have more desire than most teams. They didn't have their best year, but they never let their spirits fall. Coach lVlcKinley was one of the prime factors for the teams spirit. The team was lead by five seniors. Their two big starters were Mike Platt a Junior, and Senior Rick Crosby. Kofa won two games but deserved to win more. These two wins came at home. Kofa was out- scored by their opponents 1128 to 866 up to the Scottsdale game. Next year Kofas' team will con- sist of six returning seniors which will be Kofas' backbone for 1970- 71. Kofa will also have a few juniors for good support. In a Kofa collison, Hernandez, Crosby, and Bowman get involved under the basket. ,ywfyf fa SEASON SUMMARY Elcemm 75 Kofa 1 ,Casa Grande 69 Kofa 1. Yuma 1 67 Kofa 1 Tempe 90 Kofa .
