With eleven victories and six defeats, the St. Joseph’s Academy Cubs basketball team had one of its most successful seasons under Coach Dick Scharf. Playing in twenty games and scoring 188 points, Howard “Doc” Spresser captained his teammates to victories over the Remington Rifles, who won the Rensselaer sectional tournament, and the fast-moving Oxford quintet, which advanced to the semi-finals in the Indiana State tournament. On the starting five with Spresser were juniors Tony Serewicz, Bob Eder, and Con Fecher, and freshman Don Kasperan. Senior Dick Hermann and junior Tex Ritter were the other varsity monogram winners on the team. After losing their opening game to Mt. Ayr 29-20, the Cubs scored wins over Goodland 42-28, Kentland 37-14, and Fair Oaks 38-34. Con¬ tinuing in stride, St. Joe took advantage of a well-executed stall to crack the famous zone defense of Brook. The Cubs won 27-21. Bowing to Francisville 25-24 for their second loss, the Cubs then handed Central Catholic of South Bend a premature Christmas gift in the form of a 30-25 Hofont

With a record of six wins and only two losses up to this time, Coach Scharf’s netters found the schedule more difficult after Christmas. To start the new year, the Cubs lost 33-24 to Cathedral of Indianapolis. In the Kankakee Valley Tournament, San Pierre, the ultimate winners of the tourney, beat St. Joe 31-30. Then the Cubs came to life as they registered impressive victories over Tefft 49-14, DeMotte 43-23, and Wheatfield 56-28. Recovering quick¬ ly after a 36-34 loss to a revengeful South Bend team, the Cubs became the avengers to beat Mt. Ayr 42-27. In St. Joe’s small gym. the Cubs played perhaps their best brand of ball of the season as they came from behind to beat Remington 37-30. Then a tailspin. The Cubs hit a slump. As a result, Brook and Kentland defeated them 32-11 and 48-32, respectively. In preparation for the Rensselaer sectional tourney, St. Joe beat Oxford 32-23 in the final game on the schedule. Ladd, the Oxford ace and one of the finest players in the state, was held to three points by Tony Serewicz. With tournament fever running high and with the hopes bright for St. Joe to win the Rensselaer sectional, the DeMotte Indians burned the nets with a thrilling but heart-breaking 35-34 win over the Cubs.
