Record Proves Critics Wrong In spite of being picked as the team on the bottom line, the determined Sparta Bulldogs proved their critics wrong Win- ning five conference games against nine losses was enough to put them in a fourth place tie in the SEC. Experience was not lacking in the ’78-79 edition of the Bull- dogs since four of the starting five had played varsity last year. After placing third in the Mid-Winter Classic, the team tried harder each game to improve its record. With a chance to win fourth in the con- ference if they won the last game of the season against Chester, Sparta was unable to defeat the Yellow Jackets, having to tie for fourth place. Leading rebounder for the Bulldogs was Steve Gasser; leading scorer was Jeff Amos. Rob McCrce was close second in both categories. Above: A TURNING POINT for Sparta was Mark Roberrson's deflection of a shot by Chester's Gentseh (45) after he was bottled up by Randy Juen fltr (10) and Jim Anderson (back) TheJ-V took the lead and won an easy 62-49 victory TEAM TfKO NuhvWir Amu Jonrvboro Murphy vboro Freehur Carlyle IXiQuun OlCMCT Rntknevville (Xuwvillr Effingham Rntluryvillr Na hv,llr Anna Junrtboro Murphy bon nuo »» Carlyle Oever SCOREBOARD JUNIOR VARSITY (Won S Low 13) SHS S 2 44 SO 46 54 4? 55 62 49 50 42 t 42 56 62 17 62 19 TEAM NaUmlle Rrlleville Althofl Brilev,lie Althofl DuQuan fWknryville Sreeleville IVQuan Mater Dn 4am vi lie Nnhville SOPHOMORE lWun6 Low 4) SHS 1”» ■ o S9 61 46 11 41 44 64 TORRENCE TtX RNEY 4H OP 29 49 W S6 St 49 16 49 y2 S6 61 76 4” 1- N6 42 ’4 V OP 46 61 16 Basketball 29

Smouldering Dogs Almost Flame Battling back and forth from wins to losses, the freshman team split its confer- ence record at 6-6. Led by the leading rebounder 6'l Roy Kloth, the freshmen put a sparkle in the season by winning sec- ond place in the Pinckneyville Freshman Tournament. More promising was the sophomore team. Getting down to busi- ness was the game plan of the squad’s coach Frank Sims. The Bulldogs ended the year with a 6-4 record. Beginning with six straight wins, the sophomores suffered losses in their last four games. Leading scoters were Phil Keplar and Jim Ander- son. Bringing down the most rebounds was Mark Robertson. Not doing so well as the other teams, the junior varsity came up with only three conference wins against eleven losses, seven of which were within five points of victory. Top: SENIOR GUARD Paul Peck (15) calls for an outlet pass which begins another successful Sparta fast break against Trico. Sparta scored on the play in their 74-51 romp over the Pioneers Bottom: TIRED AND FRUSTRATED, the six Bulldog seniors look on as Pinckneyville rolls to a big victory 76-45. after Sparta had returned from a defeat at Effingham the night before. 30 Basketball
