Springing high over a defender, sophomore Toby Dahill takes a short jump shot as Linda Trotochaud moves in for a possible rebound. Lady Lions Girls Down Opposition, Compile Winning Record After guiding the 1967 Lady Lions to a region win- ning season in his first year as a basketball coach, Richard Coley again led the way to a successful season for the St. Pius girls basketball team. Although their bid for the region crown fell short in a surprising upset at the hands of the alert Sequoyah Braves, the girls demon- strated superior talent throughout their season. Aside from their disappointment in tournament action, the Lady Lions played their way to a respectable 15-5 mark at the end of their regular season schedule. Helping to contribute to this successful season was a sharpshooting group of underclassmen. The offensive three, junior Till Messner, sophomore Toby Dahill, and sophomore Linda Trotochaud, will all return next year with eyes aimed at the basket. Also responsible for down- ing opponents was a tight defensive squad comprised of senior Anne Messner, senior Barbara Ann Blievernicht, and sophomore Cathy Kupris. Seeing a lot of action also on defense were senior guards Kathy Raville, and Kathy Mulvihill.
