Dunn, Butler Pace Varsity Farmers to Winning Season Jump Barker, jump a little higher . . and the first game of the 1964-65 Varsity Basketball season was off to a well-earned win over the Suffolk Raiders. Outstanding in this first win was Billy Dunn, with 21 points. The Farmers ' next win was over Virginia Beach due to the combination of tough defense and tremendous offense. Marty Bonnet’s efforts in the 2l 2 quarters he played earned him 14 points and did much toward the Warwick decision. Warwick’s next two games were losses, first to Maury and second to Kecoughtan, where a late practice the night before seemed to stall the Farmers’ pep. Warwick’s next win was over the Mariners. With a slim half- time lead, the Farmers had to turn out a real effort in the second half. However, with Danny Barker’s rebounding and the scor- ing efforts of Tommy Butler, the fighting Farmers came out on top. Warwick’s sixth game, although a loss, was one Farmer fans will never forget. In probably the most exciting game of the year, the Farmer team as a whole earned the credit for the almost” win, after a tense, excitement-filled overtime. The next game was a victory over the York Falcons with Dunn and Butler sharing the top scoring efforts. This was followed by an action-packed battle against Princess Anne which ended with the Cavaliers on top by one point. Continuing their jinx over the Mariners, Warwick chalked up another win over Ferguson. The most outstanding effort came from David Guilliams who tallied 18 points. The Farmers next hosted state champions Newport News, but met with defeat. With a strong comeback, Warwick defeated its next three op- ponents. First to fall was Kecoughtan in a revenge filled battle led by David Guilliams. Then, led by sharp-shooting Billy Dunn (21) and rebounding Danny Barker (13), the Farmers drove in for a victory over Oscar Smith. The t hird consecutive win was like- wise Warwick’s seventh straight over Ferguson with Barker leading. Silent support. Left: Tommy Butler jack-knifes to secure a rebound against Ferguson.
