172 4 Varsity basketball stops in league What Astarted out looking to be an impressive season ended in agony as the Tokay varsity basketball team missed the San Joaquin Athletic Association playoffs by one game. Tokay, which boasted the tallest team in the league, fought to the last game before they were knocked out of the playoffs by crosstown rival Lodi High. The season was a dissap- pointment due to the fact that we couldn't make the playoffs, which was our main goal. commented head coach Bill Baumgartner. The season was not all a disappointment though. From beginning to end, Tokay fought like Tigers to maintain much deserved respect. Lady Luck wasn't on Tokay's side as they lost five league games with less than a five point margin. The Tigers finished the season with a 6-8 league slate. Overall, Tokay possessed a 12-16 record. Highlighting the season was senior Dan Williams, who averaged 20.6 points per game in league play, and senior David McCann, who averaged 14.5 points per game.
