Varsity Basketball The basketball squad finished in a triple tie for the South Iowa Cedar League championship this year with Sigoumey and Montezuma. This is the fourth consecutive year that Tama has won or shared the title. No other school in the conference has ever accomplished this. Tama won 10 games and lost two in conference play. Ta.ma's overall record was 17 wins and 6 losses. The basketball team also won a sectional championship this year. Tama's sectional was one of the toughest in the state. They had to defeat St. Patrick's of Cedar Rapids and Keystone on the way to the championship. Tama was eliminated in the first round of the district by a red- hot Montezuma squad which made it to the state tournament. This was the second year in a row that Tama was eliminated by a team which reached the state tournament. Tama placed four boys on the first two conference teams. Six players were elected to each conference team, with no regard for the player's position. Pete Zhome and Allan Youngbear were first team selections. Pete and Allan also received an honorable mention on one of the all- state teams. Larry Rifile and Pat Skala made the second team. The normal starting lineup for Tama was Petelhome and Larry Riffle at the Guard positions, team captain, Dennis Sernotan and Allan Youngbear at the forward slots, and Pat Skala at center. However, several substitutes filled in very capably and started several ball games when starters were sick or injured. Bud Wiese played a great deal at all of the positions during the course of the season. Bob Brecht filled in as forward and center several times. Jerry Potter played center when Pat Skala became hampered by fouls. Roger Pagel and David Oldbear shared a guard slot during the first Toledo game when Larry Riffle was bothered by a sprained ankle. David Peters came in at a guard spot during the hetxic closing minute of the Keystone game. Seniors Quentin McCune and David Garrels hustled and helped the team in practice, although they saw little action in the games. In individuals departments Pete Zhorne led the team in scoring, Pat Skala grabbed the most rebounds, and Larry Ribble had the most assists. Coach Carey points out that the team hit only 36670 of its shots from the field, which is not a very high percentage in basketball now. He says that Tama's great spirit and tough defensive play were what made possible the team's success.
