High- lights of the season were the victory over otherwise undefeated Iohns- town and the complete annihilation of the highly rated Mifflin High School. Sunbury finished second in the newly-organized Mid-Buckeye Conference. Carter, Lake, and Ned Forman were on the All-League Team. The 1949 Wildcat schedule contains representation of the strong- est class B competition in this part of the State. The Wildcats were cap- tained by Don Carter who set a new- scoring record for S.H.S. of lO8 points for the season. ln addition to Carter, we bid farewell to five other Seniors who were indispensible to the team's success. They are Bill Lake, Lovett Murphy, Paul Nettlehorst, Bob Ed- wards and lim Stelzer. A great blow to the Wildcats was the loss of Ken Crowl, who had been an outstand- ing Quard the two previous seasons. We are looking forward to another successful season with the return of twelve worthy letterrnen.

Coach Keltner has been one of our best-liked Coaches. He has been an inspiration to the boys and has instilled in them the love of playing a hard and fair game. He has guided both basketball and football teams through good seasons for two years. The school and community have appreciated the time and effort Coach Keltner has given to our boys in his years here at Sunbury. . 04. S.
