Freshmen please coach with good team effort in S¥§3ilifi®0P IBood team efforts in almost every ame helped the freshman hoopsters come out on top with a winning 11-8 slate. “We had good teamwork all year replied Dan Cruttenden, coach. “If these kids continue to play together they will be outstandng by the time they are upperclassmen.” The teamwork was evident in a 40-34 defeat of Easton B. After a poor first quarter performance the frosh came back to outscorc the Red Rovers by 20 points midway through the second period to pull off the win. The little Zephs also overcame an 11-point deficit with an effective second half press to edge Stroudsburg 49-45 with Tim Coval netting 12 points. Bob Fischer sank a clutch free throw in the final 15 seconds to help Whitehall squeeze by Catasauqua 52-51. Poor rebounding and an abundance of turnovers hurt the frosh in a 75-55 loss to Central Catholic. The freshman rallied behind the hot hand of Coval, who poured in 26 points, to gain a 57-44 victory over Northampton. In the second encounter with the Konkrete Kids the little Zephs were hurt by foul trouble, losing 61-55.

Putting it all together was our problem commented Chester Pieczynski. We lost most of our games due to weak ball handling and mistakes. Reshuffling of his lineup was a problem coach Pieczynski had to contend with as three freshman players were moved up to JV to fill the spaces vacated when Tom Gammon, Dan Coval, and Bill Hobson stepped up to varsity midway through the season. The jay vees had three players in double figures, but Emmaus proved too strong in a 57-46 loss. Gary Fetter tallied 12 points. Gammon 11, and Tony Vlahovic, 10, for the little Zephs. Mark Boncnbcrger converted two foul shots with six seconds remaining to lift the junior cagers to a 37-36 victory over Bethlehem Catholic. Teammates Gammon and Vlahovic chipped in 12 and 11 points respectively. Northampton used a balanced scoring attack to down the junior varsity 61-43 while Catasauqua thwarted a JV comeback in another loss, 47-42. Whitehall got some offensive firepower from Gammon and Coval, who combined for 29 points, to lead the little Zephs to a 44-37 independent win over Southern Lehigh.
