SECOND TEAM Front Row: John Deckard Duane Conkey Charles Mundy Robert Aikin John Redding Back Row: Frank Moore Lowell Clouse Wayne Bass William Jones Harold Wood Sterling Wiley, Student Man ager SECOND TEAM The Second Team is mostly composed of Sophomores and Freshmen. Although not participating in as many games as the Varsity Team, the Second Team won a greater percentage of games. Mr. Abel has also organized a Freshman Team. After the members of this team become good enough, they are promoted to the Second team. In this manner the Second Team is always composed of experienced play- ers. Later, if the player is judged good enough, he is eligible to become a player on the Varsity Squad. W'ayne Bass and Bill Jones were certified for the Sectional Tourna- ment, held at Bedford, and saw action during play there. Cletus Tow, started the sea- son with the Second's but showed such marked improye- ment near the latter part that he was transfered to the First Team. Jasper and Huntingburg did not bring their Second Teams because of the distance. For the same reason Mitchell's Second Team did not journey to Terre Haute to play Wiley. Perhaps the most exciting game was the one played with Orleans, the latter part of the season. An overtime game was necessary before the win- ner of the game was decided. with Mitchell the ultimate winner. SCHEDULE AND SCORES FOR THE SEASON SCORE DATE OPPONENT PLACE W T Nov Bedford ......
