Sandy coach Dennis W arren Sighed. " I guess th a t’s the d iffe re n c e betw een a championship team and the also- ra n s " The unexpected is something that the Pioneers had come to accept over the course of the season Injuries played a key role throughout much of the season Rick M artin missed a few early games at guard, hut came back strong after an arm injury .

The Sandy guard went down with a knee injury against Oregon City and was lost for the season F ry was the one consistent outside shooter that Sandy had The Pioneers were a unique learn this season They began w ith an a ll-s e n io r ro s te r, although sophomore Bob Nippert moved up to varsity early in the season With an all-senior lineup, many people expected the Pioneers to have an outstanding season. hut they forgot that many of the Sandy players had little or no varsity experience Sandy also lacked a legitmate big man and played the entire year with forwards in the post position. Guard was sigiposed to be the weak point with little experience and no proven ball handlers. But Kent Reick stepped in as the top guard and team leader and made contributions that many fans may not have seen. “ 1 was really pleased with Kent and his development." W arren said "H e just did an outstanding job for us this season You know, early in the year we were sup posed to vulnerable at the guard spot But I can't remember anyone really pressuring us that much with any success. ’ * The fact that Sandy had a senior-lader. team won’t help a great deal next year.

W arren said “ Practice isn’t as easy as it used to be With the facility situation the way it is. things are a lot harder on today’s athletes They have 8 p.m practices, weekend practices and sometimes don’t go home to dinner until nine,o'clock The kids in today's program make a Steve Holland w ill be M t.

He led Townsend 4-1 with 2:30 rem aining in the bout At th at poin t, h o w e v e r, Townsend, a high school All- A m e ric a n selectio n , got three quick takedowns to gain the lead. Holland bat tled back but ended up running out of time “ Steve was about a bands- width away from tying the match when the towel came in ,” said Hood coach Gary Head “ He wrestled tough, the way we decided to do. H e’s wrestling well rig ht now and I think he has a good shot at placing in the nationals H e’s ready to go.’’ tremendous amount of sacrifices “ I have a lot of pride in the kids and the fact that they can do that, keep their grades up and give 100 percent on the court," W arren added The Pioneers ended the season at 7-7 for league play 10-12 overall Sandy ended up one win away from a spot in the league playoffs, two wins away from a possible state berth. The disappointment remains from the season-ending loss to Canby. But when th a t is forgotten, the success of the season w ill begin to shine through. "In total, I ’m very pleased with the kids this y e a r." W arren said. “ Sure, we would have liked to have ended up in a playoff position, and the kids were disappointed too. but they played a lot of good basketball this year And they came a long way Attitude-wise, I coulcbi’t have asked for a better tea m .” be added "They practiced hard and prepared themselves mentally for a game I was pleased with the os fori they put in. “ It was a fun group.
