All this occurred through long, iard practices and the experienced :oaching of Jim Crumley. Being prepared ihysically by these grueling practices loesn't always help mentally. The mental lspect is continually lowered by playing every game before the varsity. When the eam would run out of the locker room into the floor they would expect a loud ipplause from hundreds of fans, but in- stead would hear only a muffled sound rom about fifty dedicated fans. However, iuring the Christmas holidays the re- serves were involved in the Greenwood invitational and looked to be well pre- pared by defeating Center Grove in the first game 27-16 and downing the host team in the championship game 33-22. Looking into the future shows some very talented basketball players arriving on the varsity scene. By playing for both the varsity and reserve squads some of the players have stored vast amounts of experience to be used in upcoming years of Speedway basketball. The freshman team, under the coach- ing of Tom Smith, completed their regular season play including the Mid-state cham- pionship with an unblemished record of 16-O. Averaging more than eleven points per game against their opponents, they collected victories over such rivals as Washington, Mooresville, Northwest, and Fulton. After defeating Danville by only two points in regular season competition, the freshmen blasted the Warriors 57-32 in the first round of the Mid-State Tourna- ment. Advancing to, and overcoming Whi- teland 39-27, they moved into the final game against Center Grove and came out champions with a score of 44-39. Coming off of a strong victory over Ben Davis and squeaking by Fulton in an overtime 45-43, the freshmen met Pike in the county tour- ney, played their hearts out, and took it into overtime, only to be defeated for the first time in three years 41-35.

After dropping their first four games to Beech Grove, Perry Meridian, Lebanon, and Whiteland, the team came back strongly to annihilate Ritter 16-7. Losing their next three ballgames by scores of 4- 3, 4-2, and 6-4 a win became even harder to attain. Pike was next on the Plugs schedule and came out victorious which gave the team a 1-8 record. A double header with Northwest gave two more losses to the Plugs, but the next game with Brownsburg ended their losing streak, as they posted a 5-3 victory. Fol- lowing a loss to Zionsville, the Plugs played their best game of the year, and defeated the number one team in the l'T1Ol'e county, Franklin Central. Two heartbreakers to Plainfield and Moores- ville by scores of 10-9 and 5-4 ended reg- ular season play before the county. In the first round, Speedway drew Perry Meri- dan only to see a repeat performance of an earlier season loss. ln sectional play Speedway played a very strong Pike team in the first game and was defeated 14-1, which ended an unhappy season. 29 1 l S l 1 1 SHS Varsity Baseball Opp.
