Sparked by the high scoring of Harold Cherry, West finished a fine season with an eleven and nine record. Cherry scored twenty points or better consistently and put in twenty-seven points against Ashley for his season’s high mark. After defeating Independence 52 to 37 in the opening game, West went on to win nine of the next eleven.

The tribe easily defeated the next two opponents, Olympic and North, by the scores of 66 to 47 and 54 to 44. The Second Ward Tigers handed the Indians their worst defeat of the season in the next game by the score of 77 to 53. Beating Olympic 74 to 67 was the only victory in the last seven games.
