for Two The 1979-80 Varsity Basketball team had its 1st winning season in 15 years. The Yellowjackets put a lot of hard work into each game and it paid off in their season stand- ings. Close, exciting games have been a trademark of the team as 11 of the 19 games have been decided by 6 points or less. Three of the games have gone into overtime with Mem- phis winning all three overtime con- tests. The team was led by Co-Captains Calvin Gross and Larry Goralski. Calvin averaged 13 points and 12 rebounds a game. Larry averaged 8 points and 6 assists per game. Rob Cook had an outstanding shooting year averaging 14 points per game, shooting 55% from the floor and 85% from the free throw line. Front B. Card, R. Moore, R. Cook, ). Morgan, M. Auch, J.
