Coach Trask started a new system this year. lt was called the interchanging of triangles. Those who watched the games saw this idea work out. Starting the season with the loss of but one man, Coach Trask developed a fine team. The system, however, was new and took time to understand. This new system also brought out many different kinds of plays. Members of the team were: Allen, Bird, Captain Gaffney, M. Morgan, R. Morgan, Quick, A. Semanik, J. Semanik, Stephenson, Bawol and K. Smith. L. White was appointed manager of the team. On the second team were: Harrison, Komorek, K. Smith, Stephenson, M. Tyran, W. Green, A. Hanson, Peck and White. Bird led the boys' team in scoring with 145 points, followed by Allen with 109, and R. Morgan with 95. The team lost the first game of the year to Waterville. However, the team went on to capture 12 straight victories. Then came the crucial Middleville game which they lost by a score of 31 to 14. Sauquoit completed the rest of its schedule without a defeat, winning 18 out of 20 games played. The playoff was called at llion with Middleville, winner by a score of 23 to 12. Next year will bring forth many new faces due to graduation and loss of the post-graduates. The boys appre- ciated the advice and time that Coach Trask spent on them to bring out a successful team. 23
