Coach - Mr. Gene Arcery. 78 amify gt-wLef6af Under the tutelage of Coach Gene Arcery, the Varsity Basketball team compounded a 9-14 record for the 1955-1956 season. The many stellar performers in- cluded co-captains Bill Condy and Tracy Douglas, who are now matricu- lating at St. Bonaventures and Notre Dame, respectively. Tom Wallace, co-captain, scored 266 points for a game average of 25 points. Hank O'Lee hooped 233 points for a 21 point-per-game average. How- ever, the most profolic scorer was Jimmy Mullen who notched 360 for a 20 point average. Mike Meyer added much vigor to the team as did Tom Scarparti with his jump shots. Bernie Sharkey was consistent as our set-shot artist to- gether with the big men, Mike Costello and Johnny Ennis, who patrolled the backboards. Our best rebounded was Jimmy Ahern who snared 15 balls per game and who also averaged 12 points per game. Bob Bogusky, the top scorer of the J .V., and Bob Cassola, the leading Frosh scorer, were added to the Vars- ity squad towards the end of the sea- son.. The team averaged 65 points per game and the most memorable wins included a 71-69 victory over Trinity in a double-overtime sudden death period when Tom Wallace scored on a driving lay-up and a 56-52 victory over St. John's Prep at the St. Francis Armory. The Varsity played in three public armories and was invited to the Manhattan Prep Tournament as well as the K. of C. Tournament. The freshmen won the Brooklyn division of the C. H. S. A. A. with Paul J amin, John McMullen, John Mc- Keon, John Tomer and Bob Cassola as the starting five.
