The team did very well in the season with the record of 6 and 2 in district play. After district playoffs the team advanced to Regional play. There they were defeated by Gonzales by a score of 35 to 52. The team consisted of only two seniors, Rusty Teston and Steve Means. Means was picked for first team district and second team regionals. Other outstanding ac- complishments were junior Tracy Carlson, Honorable Mention, sophomore Lance Wilson, First team district. With only two members of the team graduating and the rest of the team consisting of three juniors, four sophomores, and one freshman, the team should have a head start on the season for next year. The coach for the 1985 boys basketball team was Coach J. Mc- Means, a newcomer to PHS and a very welcome one at that. The team did very well this year and is the team to look out for next year.

Riddle Leads Girls Into Regionals During school and after school these girls had gone out on the court and worked hard to win. This hard work had helped them to improve their basic skills needed in basketball and moved their way up the trail of success. “Basketball had always been tough competition and a lot of hard work, said junior Angela Simpson, “but it was worth it to win the games. This year’s basketball schedule was very competitive, because everyone out on the court was out there to excel in what they were doing. No one wanted to lose, everyone wanted to win.. The Varsity team had a very rewarding season 2nd in District, winning bi-district and going to Kingsville for regionals showed an outstanding job out of each of these players. This sport took time, hard work, and ef- fort in the short time they had to prepare for their games. Most of these girls will be returning next year for another challenging and com- petitive season, where the girls expect to go much further than they did this year.
