Coached by Bob Young, the Marsing quintet com- piled l5 victories against only 3 setbacks during the regular campaign. Of the deteats, two were overtime trays and the other loss was by a single tally. The Blue and Gold held championship honors with New Plymouth in the fast S.R.V. HB con- ference loop. The rangy M.H.S. club suffered early elimination for state championship honors when Middleton and Parma humbled them in sub-district play at Fruitland. During the season the young men won a pair of decisions from Adrian, Homedale, Notus, Par- ma, Wilder, Middleton and Melba, while they split a pair with the co-champion New Plymouth Pilgrims, and lost two close tussels to the Grizzlies of Fruitland. Five seniors bow out this year, they include 6'5 center, Captain Roy Herman, guards, Rich Maggard and Bud Shields, and forwards, Dick Symms and Spencer Wilson, Highlight of the season was the closely con- tested battle against New Plymouth on the latter's court. The Pilgrims had taken the measure of the Marsing dribblers on the local hardwood in an overtime fray. The Huskies needed a return victory to assure themselves at least a tie of the conference crown. They did just that by saeezing past the boys from the north by a narrow 38-35 margin.

The 1952-53 edition of the Huskie Frosh-Soph basketball team ended the season with banner performances after a slow start. Coach Young had two groups to work with. One section was composed of seasoned Sopho- mores who earned their numerals last year and will move up to the varsity squad when basket- ball reason resumes next December. These play- ers include Teddy and Loren Greer, Phil Martin, Ierry Horrace, and Rodney Hawes, who also saw much action with the varsity crew during the recent campaign. The second group consisted of all freshmen who will be gunning for starting assignments next year. Outstanding were Purvis Starr, who was a Varsity reserve until a leg injury late in the season forced him out of the line-up, Ralph Herman, Lavon Martinat, Ioe Arriaga, Steve Symms, and Monte Parkins. These future varsity members showed perpetual hustle and during the last part ot the schedule were playing like seasoned performers. Coach Young experimented freely with the Frosh-Sophs, preparing them for eventual varsity play, rather than scoring an im- pressive won-lost record. The I-luskie-Pups downed I-lomedale and Adrian twice, and lost double encounters to the Wilder, New Plymouth, Parma, and Fruitland aggregations. Marsing also dropped a single decision to Notus. -52-
