Patrick Henry's basketball team effected its best season in school history. The ll-IO record was' the first winning season for a P.H. basketball team. The Patriots played their best games against Andrew Lewis, but the two point losses to William Fleming and E. C. Glass will long be remembered by P.H. fans. A Patriot Courtmen Compete In District l Preston Pointer intently listens to Coach Mosser's lost-minute instructions before the home game against Jefferson. Tourney victory over Halifax 166-469 en- abled the team to compete in the Western-Southwest District tour- nament. P.H. slipped by Graham 152-509 in the opening round, but was crushed by William Fleming C83-437 in the second. This team had several distinc- tions over previous years. These included scoring the most points scored in a game f79J, participa- ting in the District tournament, and having a player, Mac Mc- Clung, to make the Western Dis- trict first team. The future looks bright for Mr. Moss'er's young squad. Only two seniors were on the squad and the host of returning lettermen will be strenghtened by the up- coming J.V. team.
