B'S WIN SEVEN, LOSE FOURTEENp CAMPBELL PACES ATTACK Despite the consistent shooting of Bob Campbell, the only returning letterman from the 1958-59 team, and the rugged backboard work of Jack Lacaze, the B's were able to finish no better than 7 and 14 for the season and 3 and 7 in league play. After a fast start of four straight victories, the team ran head on into illness, defensive lapses, fourth-quarter blues, Petaluma, Sonoma, and Santa Rosa. According to Coach Starr, the most en- ioyable games of the season were the three with Healdsburg. Our whole team looked good those games. Also I thought we played especially well against Vallejo in losing a couple of close ones, 37-33 and 46-37. We xox: led in both of those at the three-quarter cy 5 mark. C90 For the season Bob Campbell hit 83 0 for 236 field goals 135731 and 23 for 40 free bxof' throws i587w1, totaling 189 points. Lacaze SRO' scored 131, Bill McDermott, 116. The fol- ,,,g5 o lowing boys lettered: Campbell, Lacaze, 6653 McDermott, Al Bond, Jim Brady, Jim Burch, K0' and Preston Creer.
