The frosh basketball squad of 1956-57 should be characterized by the words try and 'thustlef' A great deal of improvement was shown and at the end of the season the boys on the team demonstrated that they could give most of the other freshmen teams all the competition necessary for an exciting game. Standouts on the team this year were Fred Briggs and jim Gavin. Dick Toop was a consistent per- former and an outstanding rebounder. The most improved player on the squad was Karl Keyes, who, at the end of the season, had developed the coordination necessary to contribute more than his share to the team. West Valley can look to these boys for the future in basketball with confidence that the freshmen of 1957 will never stop trying until the final buzzer.
