With three new teams in the Tioga County League-Ovid, Romulus, and Interlaken--all of the games were league contests. The Tigers made a flying start by defeating Newfield 20 to 0. In the next game Tioga defeated Van Etten for the first time in history 32 to 6. This immediately raised the spirit of the team. The next game was a heartbreaker for the Tigers. Ovid eked out a 21 to 20 victory over the proud Tiogans. This proved to be the championship contest of the year. After this loss, the Tigers were after revenge. The following week the team traveled to Interlaken and brought home a 31 to 13 victory which proved to the team that they could come back and win. In the next contest with Romulus, star halfback Chuck Hunt was not in the lineup due to a severe leg infection. Nevertheless, the team was still determined to win this one. In the first four minutes of the game, the Tigers lost triple threat backfield star George Ream when he suffered a severe back injury. The Tigers lost their second game of the campaign-18 to 13. The next contest was against Candor. Hunt was again playing, but Ream was watching the game from the sidelines. The team marched off the field with a 25 to 0 victory. The season's finale was with Spencer. This game meant a second place standing for the year. The team was at full strength with Ream back, and the Tigers were hungry for a victory. Behind 21 to 7, the Tigers fought hack with the aid of a blocked punt by Earl Robinson and won the game 27 to 21. Next year's team will be without Seniors-Spencer Briggs, Earl Robinson, Bob Bell, Roger Miller, and George Ream. A number of experienced men will be back next year however. We are looking forward to a successful season in 1961 and extend best wishes to Coach Jones and Mr. Reynolds.

Q Our basketball season started with a number of new players on both the varsity and junior varsity. Coach Nimmo and Coach Jones soon had their teams in fine playing condition, and the season has been a successful one with few games in the lost column for the varsity. The junior varsity, lacking experience, have not done so well, but in each game there has been definite improvement and greater confidence with the result of more games won.
