I The most distinctive thing about this year ' s basketball team was that they weren ' t supposed to be as good as they ' ve been in this season, and that ' s why they have to be res- pected ... The Fort Wayne News -Sentinel. Out of our first twelve games, nine were won, this kept us in contention for the AC AC champion- ship to the final game of the regular season. The feat of winning four games by two points show the endur- ance and heart the team and coach possessed. Two games being won by five points, and a loss to New Haven by one point, record the excitement in- volved in the season. Al- though we did not do well in the tournaments, in each, we lost to the team that won the tourney. The News-Sentinal said: The Warriors are extremely dangerous, particularly because of their depth and desire. They can be flat and unproductive . , or they can be explosive. The team did themselves to an ACAC North Division Championship. Top Right: The spirit chain spelled out ovir support for our basketball team in the sectional tourney. Right: Forward, J.

The Warrior grapplers moved and proved their strength with three wrest- lers going on into the Re- gionals, Woodlans ' best record to date. C. Hissong won the 158 pound weight class; K. Bauniert and M, Krakowski each placed se- cond in 108, and 115 pound weight class respectively. The wrestler can attain prominence no matter what the caliber of his team. And yet a single match can change the team ' s attitude and give that extra zest that pushes a team to victory, A single Warrior goes out against his opponent. who is going to do every- thing to clamp him on the mat and hold him there. Coach Miesle ' s voice urges, pleads, advises, screams, and demands that the Warrior pin the oppo- nent ' s face to the mat and hold him there, for in this way the victory is attained.
