Sparkling Improvement The strongpoint of Coach Bohner's seventh grade basketball squad was a mass of enthusiastic young athletes. At the beginning of the season, the young team geared to individual performance, but as the season progressed, so did their ability to work and think together. This improvement sparkled after winning their last three games of the season, against Ringgold, Brown, and Lutheran. Defeating Lutheran was the zenith since the mini-Torna- do cagers had earlier been routed by them by 20 points. Offensively, the seventh grade squad was led by John Test. Alan Lebovitz, Craig Cala- han, and Rodney Harris were also noted for their playmaking ability. I mi uw-uw 1 K My Coach Bohner gave most of the credit of their sudden surge to the assistant coach, George Frank. Coach Fred Steen and his fre- quently demanding attitude led his team to a third place finish in the conference and a 10-5 overall re- cord. The winning season, the only one in the junior high, was due large- ly to the playmaking and shooting abilities of the starting members. Early in the season, the team found Baylor to be tough, but Rossville was the main threat. The peewee players Michael Brown and Howard Pouncy were voted to the all-conference team, Scott Hayes and Clark Rose were named to the all-tournament squad. Coach Steen commented, The team was the best I have had as a whole. Stricken with an off season, the ninth grade cagers won only two games, both of which were against Hixson. Coach Campbell felt that al- though the record was not success- ful, everyone on the team pro- gressed individually on offensive fun- damentals. Coach Campbell said, Rightly or wrongly, time was sacri- ficed for individual work rather than team practice. The most improved players on the squad were Brad Harwell and Alston Hamilton, while Lewis Collins was the most consistent. - Peter Hunt Displaying versatile form, ninth grader Lewis Collins brings the ball downcourt in action against A ngtiggble asset under the boards, Bob Lew- Baylor. is reaches for a rebound in a match against Baylor.
