They won six out of eleven games and played in three tournament games. This year the County Iunior High League was active for the first time since 1941, and Holland was fortunate to be able to participate. In spite of the tact that the boys had to prac- tice early in the morning, they were present for ninety-five per cent of the seven o'c1ock prac- tices. They had as their motto We don't care which teammate makes the bucket, just so it's made. Holland need never to worry about having a winning team if it can keep a group of boys like these together when they are eligible for the varsity team.

After losing the Ottawa Hills and Delta games by narrow margins, the Re- serves came back to win a very exciting game Going into the Tournament the Reserves had revenge by trouncing the Waterville Reserves 30 to 19. The second night Holland met Ottawa Hills and lost by a large margin. on the Whitehouse floor. The last game at Waterville was one of the best games ot their season. After tying the game and then playing overtimef Waterville won by 2 points. With the basketball material remaining from the varsity squad and the increased support of good materials from this reserve squad, we have good reason to be optimistic and predict a winning year for the coming school year.

From then on the team went on to win six games without a loss. The next game was with Monclova, and behind the no-hit pitching of Earl Cain, Holland won another game. Our next game with Clay was won by a one-run margin. The following week Holland played their last two games of the regular season and the team came through again by beating Monclova and winning over Ottawa Hills. The baseball season of 1945 ended when Holland lost out in the first game of the Tournament which was held at Swayne Field. As most of the boys played varsity ball for their first time and will again be on the team in 1946, Holland should have a championship team.
