Sophball: BB basketball sophomore style The whole purpose of having sopho- more teams was to allow all athletes a chance to gain playing experience. This year's team was the last sophomore bas- ketball team. With the opening of West- wood High School, sophomore teams in all sports will be discontinued. They will go on to provide strength and support for J.V. and varsity programs. The sopho- more team had a decent season this year and will end the era of sophomore teams on a good note. Also with the end of this year came the end of Bob Wilkes' coaching career at Bound Rock. Wilkes plans to devote his time now to his law practice.
