Returning to Prep League play after the Christmas break. White Station lost to the Brothers from CBHS but turned in victories over Frayser and South Side. Despite great shooting performances by John Hillman with 29 and Jesse Chapman with 22. the Spartans could not overcome an early East High lead and fell to the Mustangs 62-57. On consecutive nights we faced the Number 3 and Number 1 teams in the Prep League, succumbing to Central on Thursday night by a 62-55 count and bouncing back on Friday night to defeat the Treadwell Eagles 63-47. A great team effort enabled the Spartans to play the season ' s best game. Paving the way were John Hillman with 20 and Jesse Chapman with L5. Dave Tyree gave a big boost to the cause, gathering 12 points and 13 rebounds. Jerry Davis sparked our team playing a brilliant floor game and netting 12 points. Meeting Kingsburv on our home floor on February 6. the Spartans mounted an early lead and were never headed, winning 58-57. Hillman and Chapman led the Spartan scoring with 20 and 19. respectively. Marty Brown chipped in 11. In the last big game of the Prep League season, we played East High in our gym. The Mustangs, who captured the League championship during the previous week, were an inspired team. Gaining a first half lead, East thwarted our every attempt to catch up and won by a score of 71-57. John Hillman drilihles tliroufrh the South Side defense as Jesse Chapman awaits a possible pass. 162 21
