TVTOiWS Win. ©ES, COWt, TOOl The 1986-87 basketball season proved to be good for not only the Lady Terriers, but the boys also. Their 15-9 record was one of the best boy's records since the late 1960's. Coached by Randy Nease and Jim Petree, their fine season was highlighted by winning the West Central Tournament at Hydro. They defeated Taloga in the first round, and Arapaho (who was rated 5th in Class B) in the semi- finals. In the finals, the Terriers beat Hydro, who were rated 11th in Class B. In the district playoffs, held at Soiling, the Terriers beat Okeene. They played Soiling in the finals and lost a heart- breaker, 47-50. This defeat put them in the loser's bracket at the Regional Tournament, held at Vici. The Terriers defeated Sharon-Mutual in the first round. The next night, they faced Laveme on their home court, and suffered a defeat to end their season. Troy Hutchison, Nick Reyes, and Paul Brown were elected to the Red Carpet Conference All Stars. Paul Brown An uncontested layup by senior Paul Brown helps the Terriers overcome Helena-Goltry 60-51 at the Southwestern State Tournament. RED CARPET CONFERENCE ALL- STARS: Troy Hutchison, Nick Reyes, and Paul Brown. 26

 aJ BJ !i The 1986-87 basketball season was a fun and challenging year. Lack of experience was a big obstacle for the Lady Terriers. Aided by the leadership abilities of their upperclassmen, a young team pulled together to help overcome these roadblocks. Hard work payed, and the girls lost by no more than eight points in their six losses. Determination helped to bring home a record of 14 wins and six losses in regular season play.
