I OUR TEAMS. Our basketball and baseball teams were both of extra fine calibre this season. Our basketball quint proved to be a tartar to many of the best high school teams in the vicinity. The only five to defeat them twice was Pittsford, who had an exceptionally strong team. Our boys defeated some of the best teams, including Newark, which met defeat twice, and Cathe- dral High, which met defeat once during the season, and that at the hands of Spencerport on January 23, 1914-. The Cathedral game was one of the best games ever seen on the Masonic Court. The Cathedral representatives came out from Rochester in a large body, intending to do the town before the game, but decided to wait until their team had won. AFor some reason or other they did not possess that feeling after the game had been played, and the score read: Spencerport 446, Cathedral 26. This must have been the reason for their case of blues. ' The teams took the floor with determination, Spencerport to get re- venge for a recent defeat at the hands of their opponents, Cathedral to prevent the string of victories from being broken. It could be plainly seen after ten minutes that Cathedral was out-classed, for our quint had ten points chalked up against zero for Cathedral. However, the city five soon overcame their slackness and began to score, but it was too late, for Spencerport was leading and was determined to do so throughout the game. The first half ended with Spencerport on top, 17-13. 1 The second half started like a whirlwind. Evidently the Cathedral coach had been expressing his feelings, for our enemy began to score from the start, and gained the lead for the first time during the game. But their sprint soon ceased, for the heavy men on our team applied their weight to full advantage, and it could be seen that the city boys were tire- ing, for their liveliness gradually vanished, and the points began to pile up for Spencerport once more, almost at will, until the whistle blew and the game was over. The crowd was very much excited, for it did them good to see Cathedral trounced. The final score was indicated as 4-6-26, Cathe- dral trailing. as
