Quincy is rangy and fast and a hard man to stop when he has his eye on the basket. His basket thrown from the center of the floor in the last minute of play won the Will- amette game. Quincy will be out for his old position next year and should have a banner year. Leslie Hoar showed flashes of his old time form this season and was able to connect for a good many baskets in the games he played. After returning from the hard northern trip, Jazz', was forced to give up playing for the remainder of the year on account of sick- ness. He graduates this year and should make a good coach for some high school next fall. Jessee, yet a freshman, was high point man this season in the number of field baskets thrown. Dan has gained his experience this year and should make a wonder next winter on the basketball court. He is big and fast and has a good eye for the basket. May he' ' continue with his good playing next year. t One hundred thirty-one QQQQEQQQQ was E gl 3 31 E I U1 P 'FU P-3 O H1 5 s E IE lg EE EE

QQEEQQEEQEQEQQEEQEQQQQQEQE The Season HE basketball season of 1922 and '23 marked the beginning of Pacific University in the Niorthwest Conference. The lack of material greatly handicapped Coach Frank in his efforts to put out a 'winning team. Sickness tore great holes in the lineup at times and was perhaps the reason for some of Pacific's defeats. With all this misfortune the Badger basketball men finished with an average of 400 per cent, outscoring the University of Montana and Willamette University. Pacific opened the season with Oregon on the home floor. Pacific con- verted two baskets out of seventy-two tries in the first half while Oregon did better and dropped in enough to defeat the Badgers by a goodly score. Whit- man was the next conference team to trim the Badgers, however old man flu was the best scoring combination that the Missionaries had. Blackman and Adams were unable to play more than a few minutes because of a recent attack of influenza. Our old rivals Willamette came to Forest Grove all primed for a victory but were forced to go home with defeat. The Willamette game was the most exciting game of the year. Pacific took a good lead in the first half but Willamette began to drop them in from the center of the Floor in the begin- ning of the second half. The Bearcats tied the score with only 45 seconds to play but Captain Blackman took the ball and passed it to Adams, who shot from the center of the floor and made a winning basket. Pacific played six games on her trip north, losing all by a close -margin, usually by one or two points. This trip was the longest that Pacific's basket- ball tossers have ever made. The team came back and gave Willamette Uni- versity another cleaning on their home Hoor to the tune of 23 to 19. With only one graduating from the squad this year and Blackman again captain, it appears like a better year for Pacific in 1924. One hundred thirty-three wifi? E E H E QQ .
