Team Ends Middle Era with Winning Season The Middlebury Middies finished their basketball career with a fine J 4 - -6 season. Since this was the last year for MHS, the team put forth great effort to end the Middie era in fine style. Some of the outstanding players included brothers Steve and Doug Yoder, who led the team in scoring respectively. Other fine players were Jim Shoup, who was third in team scoring, Tom Sherck, a scrappy guard, and Jay Bistline, who was the team's tallest at 6'3 . Carl Eash, a fine defensive guard, and Tom Adkins, a relief center, added to the Middie line-up. Doug will return next year aided by classmate Galen Hershberger who proved to be a defensive coach's dream as he stopped leading opponents throughout the season. Another fine prospect was freshman Dean Weirich. 20
