ECHO Basketball The basket-ball season of 1925-6 meant the building up of a completely new team, for all the 1924-5 team were gone. About twenty men appeared at the first call and from these the following squad was chosen: Eugene Zimmer- man, Herbst, Beoletto, Sands, Full, De John, Monge and Chambers. Herbst, only a freshman, proved himself to be the best man at forward. He played consistently, showing thru the season those qualities that should make a good forward, viz., endurance, speed, eye for the basket, and team work. Sand, as a forward, had speed and team work, but lacked that good eye for the basket which accounts for the fewer baskets made by Herbst during the season. ' Full, a freshman, at forward more than any one else, had a very good eye for the basket, but lacked speed and team work. This lack accounts for the small percentage of points made during the season. Monge played a good game at back guard, covering a large area of floor, and preventing scores from close in. This was especially noticeable in the East Peoria game, Minonk games, and Washington games. Beoletto and DeJohn played a fast defensive game at running guard. A1- though handicapped by size the rear end of the court was Well taken care of no matter what kind of a team they were up against. Eugene Zimmerman and Chambers shared their time at center. Each of these men showed great possibilities and it is to be regretted that we are to lose both of them this year. No position on the court is harder to fill than that at center, but each of these men did creditable work throughout the season. Besides the work of the men mentioned, Helmuth, Hubbell and R. Zimmerman should be commended, for the work they did in substituting. Much credit is due to the members of the second team, and other men, whose faith- fulness and consistency in coming to practice night after night made it possible for R. V. H. S. to put out a first team of so much higher calibre than was ex- pected from an entirely new squad of men. Although R. V. H. S. failed to win even a majority of the games, she played the strongest of this section, and gave them all such opposition that she deserved as much credit as a winner. She has been accredited many times for having played good, fast, clean, consistent ball, and above all the team was given credit for being good sports- men. PAGE THIRTY-SIX
