Excitement builds. The crowd is tense, for SPHS Leonard Rodriguez in being allowed a free throw. An intake of breaths as the ball sails in an arc and swishes through the hoop. We've won, with a mere two seconds left in the game. There will be many memories for the varsity boy's Basketball team this year, from the agonizing one point loss to Oceanside to our Dash for Cash at our home game against Ramona lwhich we won, by the wayl. The Dash for Cash, in which the holder of the ticket stub number is drawn, lets someone from the audience pick up all the scat- tered one dollar bills hefshe can in 30 seconds. This year, Allison Miller won 20 plus dollars from Coach Marsh's idea. With players like Rich Prusinski, Jeff Baglio, and Leonard Rodriguez, they couldn't go too far wrong.

First year Coach Buck had his hands full with the Junior Varsity Boy's Bas- ketball team. Although team members came from last year's freshman team, they tried to improve after a rocky start at the season's open. Basically, we've had to crack down on the fundamen tals, said Coach Buck, They practiced shooting and passing and really tried hard and worked out. Some of the in cessant drills paid off, like the 16 point victory over Vahalla and beating Oceanside by one. Sophomore Gilbert Toscano led most of the scores and re bounds during the season. It was one of trials errors battles won and wars lost Through it, members learned how to be a team and survive proudly against the odds. W ' C
