The Freshman Basketball team had a very exciting year. Though their record was 2-I4, they were a very determined team. Coach Farrell has created a pro- gram which encourages the devel- opment of sound fundamental bas- ketball. The freshman coaches stick with that philosophy to de- velop young men who can then play ball on the JV and Varsity level. As coaches, we wanted to stress improvement, discipline and hard work. But we also stressed the importance of having fun play- ing ball as freshmen, said Fresh- man Coach Wyck Chew. We had kids playing who had never touched a basketball when they came out at the start. We worked on fundamentals the entire season and they came around LOOOZ. Our two wins at the end of the season were more than we counted on, said Coach Chew. D7

.IV Basketball improves in strength The J.V. basketball team had a good season. With two new coaches, the team struggled at first but with excellent dedication from all the team members, the season proved to be far more suc- cessful than their five and seven league record would suggest, said Coach Mike Mozell. Led by dedicated young men, the team did well. Sophomores Mike McClaskey, Brian Stromb- lad, Craig Brown and Robbie Dag- gett moved up to a very successful varsity team for divisional play- offs. They with Junior Mike Korn and Sophomore Jeff Sounart and Mark Azbill contributed to defeat- ing the league's top teams several times and held opponents quite of- ten to fewer than 50 points. This was mostly because of ag- gressive defense. Coach Mike Mo- zell was assisted by Mr. Bill Holm- gaard. Top Row: Coach Mozell, Brian Stromblad, Mike McClaskey, Chris Zollinger, Mike Korn, Randy Norton, Brian Kiefling. Jason Sauer, Craig Brown and Coach Holmgaard.
