J.V. cagers go undefeated in Section II The J.V. Oilerettes, under new Coach Bill Mook, finished the season with a perfect Section II record at 12-0 and a 12-3 record overall. The only losses for the junior Oilerettes came at the hands of three tough teams — two of the games in which Gayle Osneider and team captain, Beth Tarleton, were sidelined with injuries.
