It was a tough break for a team that exhibited flashes of brilliance the entire season. Chris Sifford, outfielder and Bobby Honeycutt, pitcherlinfielder, earned All- Conference and All County honors. When asked about making both teams, Sifford stated: I made both teams last year as a freshman and this year was better, so I thought I had a good chance again. Third baseman Phil McCorkIe was also on the All County team. The season .,.i1..,,-.,. mhz 4 . ended with the team fourth in the conference and well polished by experience. When asked about the sea- son, Coach Bill Kesler re- plied, We played well through the whole season and we never let up. This past year we missed the playoffs by one game. We only lost four seniors, so we should have a good chance next year of making the playoffs. With the roughness polished away, the Cavaliers can be expected to bring their special brand of brilliance to the diamond next year. Chad Queen.
