Cornish School in Port Perry. All the teams enjoyed good success this year (some more than others) and the coaches say the players represented their school and com- munity with keen corgpetition and good sportsmanship. The following is a synopsis of how the teams fared in basketball com- petitions this past season. Grade 6 Jr. Boys The Junior Boys Basketball team "at Cornish continued its winning ways this year. They played several exhibition games with schools throughout the region winning most of them. To become Durham Central Champions, the team had to play a round robin tournament at Cart- wright Public School. The team -easily won the tournament and then defeated Cartwright P.S. in the championship game that decided the Feprescntative for the Durham finals. At the Durham finals the team played well beating Bayview and Southwood but lost to a strong Wood- crest team. This eliminated them from further competition. Grade 8 Intermediate Boys The Intermediaté Boys Basket- ball squad played well this vear. The team won championships in the Nor- thern Classic, the St. Johns Invita- tional and the Courtice Invitational" basketball tournaments. In the Durham Region playdowns, the boys were zone winners and con- cluded their season finishing second '# # in the Major School finals and se- cond again in the All-Durham ~ Championship.' The boys represented Cornish and Scugog Township in sporting and winning style. They deserve our congratulations on a fine season. Well done boys!

Smart and coach Brownson. The team is well balanced in drib- blers and shooters -and shows pro- mise of being a top contender next - year in the Durham Region.

They won the "A" championship at the Nor- thern Classic Tournament at Brock High School. d The girls completed their -suc- cessful year by capturing the "A" championship at the Courtice In- vitational.
