TROJAN lhVcY ' BASKETBALL, The basketball season for the Troy team was one of close games in most cases, the losses being the results of games where our boys could as easily have been the better team regardless of the score. Under the leadership of Captain Don Deeter the team played a hard schedule and handled all opposition with ability that ranked them high in county rating. It is perhaps outstanding that Troy defeated Belpre and Stewart, two or our school rivals, for the first time in several years. The team showed more development from last year’s strength than any team of the county, coming from the cellar position of last year to outstanding threat of the county for this year. In the county tournament of February 26-29, the Troy team very easily defeated New Marshfield by 32-7. The next night in playing Buchtel, the boys were in the depth of poor luck and had to lose to a poorer team 20-14. This year, a tournament threat; next year a favored team to bring home the trophy. the first team will be lost. New Marshfield 21 Belpre . . Plains . . Chesterhill Chester . . Belpre . .

But due to illness of several members of the squad the team weakened, and, although they fought hard they usually came out just a little behind their opponents. The positions of the team were filled by the following: Center. Ruth Malone; right forward, Myrtle Kincade: left forward. Mary Lou Wolfe; right guard, Gertrude Deeter; left guard. Ada Deeter; and center guard, Inez Brafford. The substitutes who were used a great deal were Erma Jackson, Alberta Russell. Doris Deeter, and Mary Jo Amsbary. These girls all played hard and deserve especial mention for their efforts. The team loses five of its first team by graduation. They are Deeter, Brafford, Malone, Kincade and Jackson. It is needless to say that these girls will be missed, but the coming team looks very promising. To look at the score book one does not feel the thrill of consecutive victories but we all know that “when the great scorer comes to write against your name, it will not be, ‘Did you win or lose?’ but 'How did you play the game?’ ” We. therefore. feel that our girls’ team was a success. The two players who made the most points during the season were two Seniors, Kincade with 94 Doints. and Malone with 62 points. The scores are as follows: Troy......■ Troy..... Troy..... Troy.....

In the last two years Troy lost one game and that one was lost to Hollister by a score of 2 to 1. The team consisted of Weser. center field: White, right field; Stout, catcher; Don Deeter. short stop; C. Deeter, left field: Daugherty, second base; Calloway, first base; Williams, third base: Swearingen, right s. stoD: Bibbee, Ditcher. The two substitutes were V. Russell and H. McDonald.
