After a mediocre start in non-league play (4-4), tlie Bees caught fire and ran through the Montvievv League undefeated. Two additional non-conference wins over Soutli Hills later in the year gaves the Nobles a fine 18-4 record for the season. Their 12-0 league mark allowed them to finish comfortably ahead of the second place team. While not blessed with great size, the Bees had good offensive power and con- sistently managed to score well against all oppostion. Two players provided most of the scoring spark. Louie Bridgeman, selected as captain and the team ' s Most Valuable Player, had an outstanding season. He led the team with 18. 3 points per game average. A bulwark on the boards, Brigeman made it possible for the Nobles to effectively use a fast break. Joining Bridgeman in leading the attack was sopho- more Arnold Crannon. Playing at a guard position, Arnie demoralized more than one team with his pin-point shooting and excellent ball handling. His scoring average was an excellent 14 points per game. These two individuals captured most ol tlie awards for tlie past season. Bridgeman, in addition to the honors already mentioned, was sleeted as the Most Valuable Play- er in the league. Crannon was also selected on the all-league first five and as the team ' s Most Valuable Defensive Pla.ver. Bill Morrison garnered the covet«Hl Most Inspirational Player award for his display of determination and desire. Mr. Ingalls- Coach Louie Bridgeman- Captain

Mr. Mcintosh, the Cee Coach, felt that the highlight for him was the Cool-never-give-up attitude of the entire team. The boys did well considering only two had prior basketball e.xperience. Andy Ojinaga was selected the Most Valuable player and Edsel Payne was the most high point man. The team finished second in the League with 10 wins and 2 losses.
