Ladies Add Style COACH AL JONES The birth of a new High School at Millwood brought with it new ad- ventures in athletics. One such adventure was girls varsity basketball. At the outset, there were 29 girls who reported for practice, but by the time competition began there were 16 girls wearing the red, white, and blue. After losing the first game of the season the Falconettes celebrated their birth by winning the first home game ever played at Millwood. By the completion of the premier season the girls had suffered their growing pains. They finished the season with a record of 4 wins and 16 losses. However there are some bright spots such as 13 returning lettermen for the 72-73 season. This year’s Best Defensive” player, Cassandra Russell, Best Offensive” player.

Sharing his knowledge with the Falcon men, Millwood came out with a successful wrestling season that the Falcons will always be proud of. Working hard getting its “11 together for the first big match, wrestlers ran five miles a day, worked out on weights and did strenuous exercises to get themselves prepared. It was well worth the effort when the Falcons confronted Choctaw and floored them with a 27-27 tie. Other victories were over Douglass 46-18, Casady 32-12 and Geary 37-21. Outstanding wrestlers for the season were Allen Steele, Keith Russell and Demeitrus Williams. These young men and many others made great contributions to the team with their many victories.

During the last two years the team has won 41 of 48 games. “This outstanding goal should be attributed to the length of time the team has been playing together and their willingness to work hard,” said Coach Robinson.
