A fairly large number of new men joined the squad with the opening of the practice season, The situation regarding football material made it necessary for the coach to spend the greater part of the practice time drilling the men in the fundamentals of the game. It might have been possible to have built up a team which would have made a better showing by forcing the development of men but the coach preferred to pay more attention to the foundation work which will result in a greater team in the years ahead. His motto is: If you want to build to last, you must built strong at the beginning. When all the conditions are considered the season is regarded by the followers of the game as quite successsful. A better showing was made this year than during any previous year. A harder and longer schedule was played and the record of games lost and won does not represent the real progress of football in Wayne County High. Next year the team will be better have reported for the next spring practice. squad will return next fall. Only two Booton. There is no real reason why next fall. y because more experienced men and more men Nearly all the men who were members of the men are lost through graduation, Mosser and the team should not make an excellent record The games played during the season of 1927 are as follows: ' ' 1 9 Griffithsville ..................

Although all the men with the exception of Captain Frazier and Mosser were new men the team made a very good showing. The new men in some instances had never been on a basketball court, but they developed to an unexpected strength and the team succeeded in winning seven out of thirteen games played. Frazier and Mosser will be the only members of the squad who are lost to the team through graduation. All indications point toward a most successful season next year and the greatest basketball team that has ever worn the gold and blue of Wayne County High..
