THE ILLOHMET--194-4 BASKETBALL 1943-44 Wilcox ‘46 (Forward)—Bob is only in his second year at M. C. H. S. and should help the Trojans to many victories during the coming basketball seasons. He is a dangerous long shot at any time and proved himself an offensive star in his second successful season as a Trojan. Alliston ‘46 (Forward)—C. E. for the second consecutive year made the first team, lead the Trojan offensive, and played equally as good on the defensive. Alliston is only a sophomore, and if Uncle Sam doesn’t object, he has two more years in school which should prove him even better than the past two seasons. Comer ‘46 (Guard)—“Sonny,” is also a second year man. and one of the many on the squad who gave a good account of himself. His calmness and cool thinking played an important role in his success as a Trojan. Baccus ‘46 (Forward and Center)—Buddy was a real “find” this season, but was not discovered until the Lone Oak game, in which he started and scored 12 points. He is only a sophomore and will be seen on next year’s Trojan outfit, if he is around. Helm ‘44 (Guard)—Coolness and aggressiveness combined with fast breaking and good conditioning were Douglas’ standouts, as he helped hold the team together throughout the season. Hotter ‘44 (Center)—Karl started to school the second semester and took over the starting center assignment against Brookport. He showed real basketball ability and was good on defense as well as rebounding. DeJarnett ‘46 (Guard)—Another sophomore who was shifted from forward to guard by Schneeman. This proved to be a fine move as Lyndell deveolped into one of the best floor men on the team. Schneider ‘44 (Guard)—Lavelle proved himself to be an excellent guard throughout the campaign and when he didn’t start, he was a capable man to send in at any stage of the game. Foreman ‘45 (Forward and Center)—Jim was the only junior on the squad, and represented his class very well. He was a threat all season and kept those on the first team fighting for their positions all the time. Buchanan ‘44 (Guard and Center)—“Buck,” a transfer student from Golconda. could not play the early part of the season due to ineligibility (not scholastic), but after he became eligible, he moved into a starting berth and filled his position well.
