Tony Hudgins springs for the jump against his Cran- ford opponent. MCDEDE SURPASSES 1000 POINT CAREER TOTAL Led by veteran Jim McDede, the 1969 basketball team showed consistency and bal- ance, and emerged this year as a major threat to all Union County opposition. McDede, who led the young offense, contributed greatly to an explosive attacking game, while his re- bounding strength under the boards was an- other valuable asset. His 49 point performance against Cranford set a new school record while through the last 10 games of the regular season he averaged in excess of 25 points a game, finishing the season in the top three among all Plainfield area scorers. During the Christmas week the Raiders participated in the newly organized Colonia Festival Tournament, managing a third place finish, after losing narrowly to the eventual winners, Vailsburg. Throughout the conference season, Mc- Dede's scoring ability was matched ably by Frank Zelesnik, who with Guy Budinsak and Colton Helbig constituted one of the highest scoring offenses in the Plainfield area. Coach Dettmar's success this season was augmented basically by two factors: lj The high scoring of McDede and his teammates, and 23 the exceptional depth at his disposal. Never before has he enjoyed such a selection of talented players and this reason contributed greatly to many of the team's overwhelming victories. Narrow losses to Springfield and Rahway, cost the Raiders the Watchung Conference this year, placing them second. However, Mc- Dede's scoring accomplishments surpassed the 1000-point mark during the Springfield game which was a major conference highlight for both himself and the entire team. McDede and Budinsak are ready for the rebound as Frank Zelesnik sinks one from the outside. McDede and his teammates are expected to do well in the County Tournament this year. But regardless of the outcome, their high scor- ing potential, their diversity of talent and their general attitude has helped them become one of the most well-balanced Raider basketball teams in quite awhile. ,xr
