,f, 2 1 ' lark l BASKETBALL -sffxi 1 The past year has been a successful one for the basketball team, in spite of all the snow which kept us from having several games. Out of the ten games scheduled for the past year, we played seven during the season and three in the tournament. Out of the ten games, we were victorious in six. With three of the boys back, Coach Dennis added two new boys to make up the varsity. The boys all did well and improved considerably during the year. Coming to the tournament, we drew a by in which we played Mt. Zion. Carrying a rabbit's foot for luck, we won the game 50-24. The next night was the thriller of the year. Lykens who had only lost one game through the season was played by the Sulphur boys. It was a very close game and in a three minute over-time, Lykens was victorious, winning by one point, 41-40. Losing this game kept us from going to the district. The last game of the season was played against North Robinson. Our team seems to like the score 41-40 for they lost to Robinson by the same score as they had lost to Lykens in the previous game. However, we did place fourth in the county and received a basketball as a reward. With this ball the boys hope to come back next year, and not only be County Champs, but District Champs as well. Good Luck, Boys! To the referees we give our humble thanks for doing such a wonderful job in maintaining good clean playing. THE SQUAD DONALD PFLEIDERER fGun Powderb is a new comer on our team. He played the position of forward and proved to be one of the main cogs out of the five. During the ten games he stacked up a total of 82 points. HERBERT LIGHT Cjust Herbj was the other cog on the forward end. Herb was our high point man through the season. Having one year of experience, we found he could come through with points when things looked very bad for us. His total was 127 points. DONALD KNAPPENBERGER QStretchJ was a veteran of last year. Everyone come to the conclusion he could play very good ball when his mind wasn't on the bleachers. However, he did manage to rank up 88 points to his credit. RICHARD AUCK fDickJ is also an old member of the team. Dick and Kenney proved to the rest of the team that they could bring the ball to them. His scoring of 20 points wasn't high, but neither was his opponents. KENNETH SHEALY CKenneyJ was the other new comer to the team. Kenney showed his ability as a guard and could play forward when he was needed. His height was a great help in the defensive end. His points amounted to 16. KERMIT KIBLER CK1bbieD, the spark plug of the Reserve, was also a substitute for the varsity. Kermit's graduation will be a big loss to the squad. IVAN ULMER CElmerD is an all around man playing forward or guard. He always did his best if we were winning or losing.
