Mr. Pluschan EIGHT, ball handling, agility, and speed were all contribut- ing factors in another winning season for the hoopsters. Senior Co-Captains Doug Claysher and Don Olesen did a fine job in pacing the Chiefs all year long. Claysher worked well underneath, getting tap-ins and rebounds, while Olesen worked around the keyhole. The main difficulty this year seemed to be the lack of consistency. The unpredictable Chiefsf' as they were called by Newsday, ran hot and cold all year. A recent innovation in the South Shore Athletic League aided the club. With this new rule a coach may shuffle his players according to ability between varsity and junior varsity levels. This feature also aids in maintaining a seasoned, experienced club from year to year. This year many juniors saw quite a bit of action due to varying circumstances. Because ol' this action, next year's club should have another winning season.
