BASKETBALL Built around four returning starters, and several new players, the 1945-46 basket¬ ball team proved to be the best St. Joseph’s Academy has produced in several years. Let by Bob Eder, as Captain, the Puma-Cubs roared through a season of eighteen wins in twenty-three starts. Three of these wins gave the Cubs the championship in the Kankakee Valley Tournament. S. J. A. 22—St. Paul 23 The season’s opener was dropped to St. Paul of Marion, Indiana. It was a thrilling, low-scoring game. Even though a loss, this initial game revealed the style of the Cardinal and Purple quintet, and gave promise of a successful season. S. J. A. 50—Fair Oaks 21 The Cubs easily won their second game, 50-21. Their victim was Fair Oaks. S. J. A. 47—Kentland 36 In their third game the Cubs came from behind to whip Kentland 47-36. Eder, Kasperan, and Serewicz played outstanding ball on the defense. S. J. A. 30—Brook 28 Steady ball-handling and smart team play brought the Academy five again from behind to edge out Brook by two points. Page sixty-seven S. J. A. 50— South Bend C. C. 15 The Cubs registered their fourth win by a 50-15 rout of South Bend Central Catholic. The Indians were able to hit only three field goals. Serewicz paced the Cubs with 15 points. S. J. A. 36—Sacred Heart 28 Playing perhaps the best game of the season, St. Joe knocked off highly tout¬ ed unbeaten Sacred Heart of Indiana¬ polis in a 36-28 thriller. Kasperan turn¬ ed in a great defensive game as Eder and Regan sparked the offense. Kankakee Valley Tournament s. J. A. .43 Wheatfield . .21 s. J. A. ..46 Tefft . .27 s. J.
