Gone are the days when our basketball team had losing seasons, for this year our mighty Tigers captured first place in WPIAL section l3A, with a season record of eighteen and four. Seniors Greg Otto, Bob Bowman, Jerry Dodson, and Don Eshenbaugh, with juniors Tom Carr and Ray Heilman comprised the nucleus of the team, and through the tactful coaching of Mr. Jack Linder blasted their way to the top. The glory of victory at the Upper St. Clair Tourna- ment and over other section opponents carried less spirited Tigers over disappointing losses to Hampton and North Hills. When the Tigers roared, opposition submitted, and a team of ferocious fighters took the coveted title of section champion.
