Q1-5 'tl al' Freshman team members are: Jeff Rhonemus, Brent Fioahrig, Matt O'Bryant, Joe Petro, Randy Newton, Scott Miller, Dean Reed, Scott Profitt, Tony Huber, Brad Lacy, Greg Main and Rick Brown, manager. Mr. Mike Simons is their coach. C- Team Leads to Although the freshman team had only three wins to ten losses, the coach and players are optimistic about the future of Bu the individual players on the team. The purpose of the freshman program is to build individual and team effort and progress to prepare for B-team and varsity basketball. Indiana is particularly a basketball state. Boys play the game first with the home backstop, then in elementary school, junior high and on freshman teams. The public supports these efforts, but the main emphasis is on B-team and varsity ball. All the rest is preparation. Mr. Simons commended individual team members at the athletic banquet. Matt O'Bryant had a 6596 free throw record. Brent Ftoahrig was tops with 52 assists, and Scott Miller had the highest offensive point average. 1 02 f C-Team C-team ..........f--.......,-..,..,......,
