The young Yellow Jackets eventually lived up to their coach's expectations by winning their final ten games of the season to finish 12-5. Four players averaged in double figures led by freshman Doug Loescher who was named the team's Mtn,. The six-foot guard hit for 19.5 points per game and paced the squad in free throw percentage (.899) and assists (82). Loescher was Cedarville's top scorer on 12 occasions. Junior Dan Morris (above) averaged 13.5 points per outing with a team-high. .658 field goal percentage. The 6-7 center also led in rebounding with 8.3 boards a contest. Other double-digit scorers were freshmen Gary Shaffer (right)(12.8 ppg) and Mike Watson (11.2). Rookie Jerr9 Keller averaged 9.0 points and 7.9 rebounds per game and twice hauled in 15 boards. The junior varsity averaged just over 82 points a game eclipsing the century mark three times. One note of interest is that the Jackets was the only team to beat Ohio Dominican's j.v. unit this year, and they knocked them off twice. Several members of this squad are certain to be wearing the varsity "yellow and blue" in the near future- Mark Womack,SID' 134 Junior Varsity Basketball
