What a season for the junior high girl's bas- ketball team. They are 6 and 6 on the season with their last game in the Vergennes Tourna- ment for third place against Orwell. Most games have been cliff hangers; won or loss by 2-3 points.; Perhaps the most exciting win was a 2-13 come from behind at half-time to beat Camel's Hump 21-17. The team is made up of four squads of players who each play 3 min. in the first half. The the all-star team finishes up the game going for the win. 127

The Junior High Boys basketball team was composed of many inexperienced ball players. Throughout the season the team learned how to play together and develop their individual skills. The highlight of the season was coming in third in the Vergennes tournament. The returning ballplayers give next years team some quickness and game sense that was needed this year.

BALL Developing the skills which will make an individual a bet- ter basketball player is the im- mediate goal of this program. At the same time, much more occurs during the course of the season. An individual's character is tested repeatedly as the season progresses. Mental and physi- cal stamina are stretched to the limits in game situations. Emotional and physical matu- rity levels are tested over and over. The constant challenge to improve is there every day. 128
