COACHING STAFF Asst. Tim Whitis (not pictured) Coach Nelson Moore Asst Bill Tharp The varsity Patriots finished the 1986-87 season with an 8-16 record. Although the Patriots did not play up to their potential at times, the record was a good one considering the team lost the two leading scorers and two key reserves off last year's 12th Region runner-up team. This was a young Patriot squad that started only two seniors and three of the first four players that saw action off the bench were juniors. Two sophomores and one freshman also saw varsity action this year. It will be an experienced and promising club that takes the court next year. The Patriots advanced to the 12th Region Tournament by downing KSD by a count of 60-51. Then the varsity nearly repeated last year's 45th District championship but fell in the closing seconds to rival Danville, finishing as runner-up. The Pats were eliminated by the evenual cham- pion, Monticello, in the first round of the region by a score of 68-65. This was a rebuilding year considering we lost four good players off last year's team and we played a lot of younger players, commented Coach Nelson Moore. We're hoping to build a tradition here and the future looks good for next year. The varsity was well represented on the various all-tournament and all-area teams. Greg Alcorn and Neal Johnson made the 45th District All-Tourney team and Neal was also a member of the 12th Region All-Tournament. Jason Todd represented the varsity on the All-Area team while Neal and Jon Moore were honorable mention. Written by James Coffey Neal Johnson
