BASKETBALL The 1939-40 Prophetstown High School cage season opened November 17 and closed February 23. Between those dates the Prophets won twenty-one games and lost nine for a per- centage of .700. They made a total of 1078 points, an av- erage of 35.93 Der game, and allowed their opponents 864, an average of 28.8. The team's percentage in free throws was .434. Its performance in the Two-Rivers home-and-home game series gave the team the Two-Rivers Conference champion- ship this season. Standings in the West Side Conference were not decided until the final game in that series and Coach Craig's team narrowly missed winning there also. At Chadwick, in one of the Wforeignn games, Zinser made a free throw in the last minute of play to win the game, and at Sterling, Roman sank a basket in an overtime period to win from St. Mary's. Roman set a new Prophets- town High School scoring record, 33 points, for one game when Hillsdale played on the Prophetstown floor. The rec- ords of these regularly scheduled games and the individual records of the 1939-40 squad appear at the end of this sec- tion. In addition to the regular schedule of games, the Craig team participated in three tournaments. The west Side Con- ference Tournament was held at Morrison during Christmas va- cation, and Prophetstown celebrated by beating Fulton with a score of 26 to 24. The gun went off as Roman's winning basket went through the hoop. In the finals the Indians met Morrison and were tripped up by one point, score 40 to 41. In the Two-Rivers Conference Tourney at Erie, Prophetstown trounced Hillsdale SO to 23, then met Annawan for the first time of the season and lost 23 to 30. Annawan went on to win the tournament, and the Prophets nosed out Cordova, 38 to 24, for third place in the tournament. At the Regional Tournament in Dixon, Prophetstown won from Franklin Grove 38 to 36, then lost to the strong Dixon team 51 to 24 in the semi-finals. The team was knocked out of third place by Rock Falls with a score of 27 to 38.
