The team's crowning glory was the conquering of Longfellow School in the last forty seconds ofthe game. The season opened with hopes and spirits high. The toughest game was with Baltimore Junior College. at Baltimore. Although Woodward was at its best. the team was outclassed. but still managed to emerge with the close score of I8-6. The next game was with the National Training School. Coming from behind in that game. the Red Devils posted a 7-6 victory. At this point the team was greatly handicapped by injuries to Don Judson, uSqueaks Wilson, Bob James, Les Loveless, and Fullback Ron Cutter. Traveling to Baltimore in this mangled con- dition, the team lost to St. Paul's. 35-7, Two games were cancelled due to Asiatic Flu. and this gave the team time to recuperate from its injuries, so that the next game, with West Nottingham. ended in a decisive I8-O victory for the Red Devils. The last game. with Longfellow, looked dismal at the half with the score at 7-0 in favor of the opponents. In the second half, however, the Red Devils came to life and, taking the Longfellow team by surprise, won by a score of 19-13.

It looked as if Woodw ard School might better its l957 record of I3 wins and 3 losses, with 6'6H Ronald Cutter and 6'5 Bob James to control rebounds. Before the first game Bob James bad knee gaxe out. and he was told by doctors he would not be able to play any basketball this year. Our lirst game was against Bullis Prep. With the score I6-13 Ron Cutter's leg gave out, and he had to be carried oil the Hoor. Ron was also out for the year. This left a team with no height at all to play a heavy schedule of teams, some with men as tall as 6'7 or 6!8H. Mr. Zook worked his short ball club into a well-run team. With no height, however, we had trouble winning games, but we improved steadily until we beat Longfellow High School 50-47. Seniors on the team were Larry Miller. Ray Lupo. and Lester Loveless. The core ofthe team was made up of Juniors and Sophomores. The prospects for the future are bright. This has not been a wasted year. Next year seven of the players will be back. Credit must be given to the hne work done by Mr. Zook in coaching a handi- capped group into a good basketball team. We can truly say Wait 'till next year. 69
