1945 Athletic Activities Sheffield High School, after an absence of many years, was admitted to the Southern Berkshire Basketball League. Despite the small number of boys in the high school and their lack of experience, the members of the teams put up a stiff battle for all opponents. Boys from the seventh, eighth and ninth grades made up the Junior Varsity. The experience they obtained will undoubtedly be of great value for future teams. The girls ' team also made a good showing for the Black and Orange of Sheffield High. Lack of experience was, also, their greatest handicap. However, they showed a decided improvement as the season progressed.
