2 2 a Review of the Season Although the R. M. A. quint was nosed out of the state prep school championship, it exhibited a brand of basketball that is hard to surpass. ‘Ten games out of fourteen of an exceptionally hard schedule were won. In the majority of the victories, R. M. A. led the score by a wide margin, regis- tering wins over some of the best teams in the state. The Lemon and Black team started the season in brilliant fashion with decisive victories over Appomattox High and Montvale A. C. A slight relapse was suffered in the Roanoke College and V. E. S. games, which ended in defeats for R. M. A. Then the Bedford quint struck its “stride” and rang up six straight victories, among which stood out those over Chatham, Lynchburg High, | Daleville College. The game with Lynchburg was one of the most interesting and well-played games ever seen on the R. M. A. floor, and the outcome was in doubt until the final whistle. The strong Fork Union team defeated the Lemon and Black five, but four days later the “big team” retaliated on Blacksburg High. On the final trip of the season the cadets broke even, losing to Chatham by one point and winning over D. M. I. by a large margin. The Chatham game was hard-fought and was replete with thrills; although on the small end of the score, the Bedford team outplayed its opponents. After a hard-fighting junior varsity football team had experienced a successful season, it was decided that there should be a regular scrub basketball team with a schedule all its own. ‘This aggregation had a creditable season, winning two of the series of three games with Bedford High, and defeating the Peerless A. C. by a large score. The final game with Bedford was a thriller, requiring an extra five-minute period to decide the winner. “Al? Haden was the hard-working captain of the scrubs, and Joe Rucker proved himself to be an earnest and efficient manager. Page ninety-two
