1938 Cedrus Yearbook

The Cedarville College Basketball Team closed its third consecu- tive successful season by winning eight decided victories in its fifteen games scheduled. Of the seven games lost, three were lost in over- time tilts, one by a one point margin, one by two points, and the final Wilmington game by a four point margin. The 1937-38 quintet added two teams to its regular opponents of the preceding year—Wilber- force and GifFin College of Van Wert. In conference play Cedarville College tied for second place with Defiance, winning three and losing three league games. High scorer for the Yellow Jackets is Howard Swaim, who has played his fourth and last year for Cedarville College. Kenneth McNeal and Russel Roberts, junior and sophomore, were not far behind in the sharp shooting. In addition to Swaim the quintet will miss Roy Linton at guard who has ably captained the team through- out the season. Clyde Walker, a junior, played commendable basket- ball in the setups and promises to be a real asset to the '38-39 quin- tet. In addition to Roberts, McNeal, and Walker next year will see Wiseman and Kavanaugh, freshmen lettermen of outstanding ability, in there fighting to make it one more successful season. First Row: L.
