A54 The Manawa High School basketball team, under the tutelage of Head Coach Carl Herried went through a very successful year with a season record of 19 wins, 5 losses. This reo- ord was sufficient enough to gain Manawa a three way tie for the conference crown, sharing it with Amherst and Marlon. During the conference games, Manawa lost to Iola, Waupaca, Wittenberg, and Amherst, but also heat all of these teams at least once. 4 Although Manawa had a very good conference record, they reached their greatest goals in the tournaments. V Manawa, won the sub-distrlct tournament played at Manawa, by trtpplng weyauwega,Iola, and Marion. winning these games gave our team the right to enter the district play - offs held at Amerherst. This game, played against Westfield, was perhaps one of the most ex- citing games of the entire season from the spectators point of view. The Manawa team,once 13 points behind ln the 2nd half, refused to quit, and a field goal in the last 2 seconds of play by-Dave Peterson, gave Manawa a tie, and the team proceeded to go on and win this all important game in an overtime. with this win Manawa was enabled to enter the sectional meets, this year held at wis- consin Rapids. Our team won the first game of this tournament against a very big and able Abbotsford team. The following night Manawa played Shawano High, which went on to win the State High School Championship. Only because of 5hawano's great height and good bench strength were they able to win over the fighting Manawa five. The final score was 8U - 65, but that does not tell a true story of the game. The game was very close until the last quarter when Shawano was final- ly able to gain this margin of victory. 1 The HBW team under Coach Neerdaels gave a good account of themselves with Sophomores and Freshmen playing a large portion of each game and getting valuable experience during the season.
