While starting the season with spectacular victories over New Lebanon and Coxackie-Athens, the team outlook soon dimmed as we faced the top two teams of the league, and lost both games. Although con- cluding the season with a losing record, the boys shaped up into a well-balanced team. Lack of height, as well as lack of a real scoring threat, however, proved to be a handicap when the Wildcats faced taller, more experienced teams. The Wildcats made up for it, however, with the good spirit, hustle, and the fine sportsmanship that has always been characteristic of Maple Hill.
