PllIIIllC'l' X Cl RR CCEII 4 TL rm Once again Clark foiled the pre-season predictors. Ranked third behind Holmes and Jay for district honors, the basketball team was not even mention- ed in city rankings. But, before mid-season, the local writers knew that they had made a mistake. In pre-season play, the team had its ups and downs. They lost to Churchill and Roosevelt, but easi- ly defeated Judson, Edison, and MacArthur. There were no suprises in district play, but they had close calls with Jay, 56-54, and Taft, 54-50. After a 20 point loss to Holmes, 58-76, the Cougars rebounded with a 104-41 victory over Harlendale. By this time the media continually placed Clark in the top four in the city. As the second place team in district, the Cougars beat Highlands for the bi-district ti- tle. The next step in their journey was against Brownsville Hanna in Corpus Christi. After that easy area win, the team met Churchill in the regional tour- nament at UTSA. The media loved the Churchill-Clark match-up because it pitted two rivals against each other. ln ad- , ? 'f :v'0'i -. C , NW dition, the Cougar coach Danny Murphy had never beaten his brother, Bobby Murphy, the Churchill coach. Also, in 1980, the only other time the Cougars had been inthe regional tournament, the team cap- tain was Kevin Hamilton, now the Clark assistant coach. The media hype was more exciting than the game which Clark won 79-67. Now the team had progressed higher than any other Clark basketball team and they had to meet the district rival who had beaten them twice before. Once again, the Huskies proved they were the superior team wimming the very physical game, 43-51. The players showed constant improvement throughout the year to the regional finals, said Murphy. A major factor in their success was the team's hard work and dedication geared toward reaching their goals. -Victor Pisano Going up for the rebound, Matt Cernosek, junior, reaches for the ball against a Holmes Huskle defender. .1-ss... .1 .. -ff., . ,ii 355515, as 'iwfm--:st ., ..- T ...,,,,.- ...swa- 1 4,j Q Z 4 ' . aff Y A if Z t ' Q .
