651 the basketball season ln the walie of a great football Season our basketball team came through with a good measure of the success that seemed to favor all of Principia's sports activities through the past year. Qur conference was the strongest it has been for a number of years, yet we made a tine showing for a really outstanding season. From a wealth of Freshman material and a few letter-men Coach Berninger built up a squad that played smart, fast basketball throughout, winning eleven out of seventeen starts. At the end of the regular playing season, in which we won nine out of fourteen games, we entered the conference tournament. After losing a hard-fought first round game to Hannibal by a score of 56 to 51, the team continued through the consolation series and defeated Iefferson City. Vtle went into the tinal round and became consolation champions by defeating Central Vtlesleyan -10 to 50. Two members of the team were given honorable mention on the All-Conference Team. The season's records show that our team outscored its opponents -199 to -150 points. Offen- sively we made good on 162 out of 711 shots at the basket for a scoring percentage of 250, Xve derived lots of enjoyment out of all the home games, but certainly the most thrilling was that Flat River game. lfyou recall, it was a close contest all the way through, each team holding the lead at various stages and consistently playing Hne ball. Vtle were one point behind, the ball was in the air, and the gun went off. Nlaybe you remember holding your breath until the ball snapped through the hoop and gave us a 28 to 27 victory!
