BASKETBALL Coach John F. Donahue's masterpiece is here. His ninth Natick High School quin- tet is the greatest in Natick's athletic his- tory. t,-nly the deeds of the 1912 football team even approach their grand record. Faptain John Lelllair, William Daley. Francis Corkery, George Wiguot and Cap- tain-elect Louis Cardellicchio brought the greatest honors to Natick that a team could bring. Fighting through a regular season schedule of thirteen games without a de- feat, tney met Reading High in a play-off and won 12 to 11. They proceeded to the Massachusetts Institute of 'l'echnology's Basketball Tournament and soundly de- feated the famed Chelsea Red Devils. Un to the semi-finals against Lowell. Na- tick, a team with three hard games in four nightsg Lowell with one easy victory in two weeks. The score piled up, Lowell PAGE TVVENTY 14, Natick 1. But 11ow witl1 super-human effort the Red and Blue came to life, Lo- well 18, Natick 15. They had given all they had though, Corkery with several in- juries was doneg LeClair too was unable to continue. Lowell won 24 to 19. It was a grand game. Though each a star in his own right it was not individ- ualism which gave Natick this great quin- tet. It was team-work and unselfishness. That's how they won. That's how th-ey played: and they left no doubt in any- one's mind that they were the greatest team in Massachusetts. The Second team completed a. fifth con- secutive undefealed season.
