"As I sees Um," As welcome as
the (lowers in spring is the COL.
basketball championship for the
Madras White Buffalo girls basket
ball team. They wrapped up the title
on the road trip to Miiton-Frccwatcr
on Saturday, February 29, 1992, as
they posted a convincing 67-42 win
over the Mac Hi Pioneers to up their
record to 9-1 in league play and 17

The highlight over the weekend
was the big win over the Ontario
Tigers on Friday night as they
avenged an earlier loss to the Tigers
earlier in the year on their home
court The Buff girls held off a de
termined Ontario Tiger team to win
the game 63-57. A big punch for the
girls was the return of Becky Dodson,
who has missed the past couple of
games with a back injury. It was a
team effort as all the girls played
well. Luannc Folu came in from the
bench and kept the offensive drive
going to lead the Buff attack with 15
points for the night.
The teams played pretty tough
ball as they ended the first quarter
with Madras a slim lead of 13-10.
Both teams scored 18 points apiece
in the second quarter and at the half
time the score was 31-28, in favor of
the Buffs. When it appeared the Ti
gers might getaway building up their
lead then Laura Sahmc would pop in

Shirley Allen kept the Tigers busy as
she had a good defensive night caus
ing turn overs from the Ontario girls.
Michelle Simmclink and Becky
Dodson took care of the inside.
Margie Durettc made some key steals
on defense. In the third quarter both

the score 44-4 1 in favor of Madras. It
was a point for point game in the
final quarter but the Madras girls

another year at Clackamas.
She applied for the job because
she enjoys playing the game, she also
knew Thornton would not be able to
remain coaching this year. Although
she was uncertain about getting the
position she decided to give it a try.
There were two other applicants. In
the future, Tanewasha would like to
pursue a second job as a coach, but
for now she is just looking at com
pleting the season.
Thus far there are twenty girls
who have turned out, six toeightwill
still be playing basketball until after
the state tournament so it will be a
little while, before team selections
are made for the season.

Madras White Buffalo boys still look for
With just a couple of games left
the Madras White Buffalo Boys bas
ketball team is still in the thick of
things and hoping to land a spot in
the state tournament to be held in
Eugene, Or, starting March 1 7 to the
21, 1992.
The road was pretty good until
they dropped a pair of road games to
Ontario, and Nyssa, which put them
in a tie for second place with Nyssa.
In their last game the Buffs pounded
the Mac Hi Pioneers 89-42, to get
back on the winning side of things.
At the present time their record is 7-
Parents should be
The saddest thing I ever heard a
coach say was this: "The kids are all
right; it's the parents who are caus
ing the problems."
What a sad reflection that is on the
atmosphere surrounding a team. The
coach has kids he enjoys working
with and who respect him, the team
is winning more than its share of
games, but some parents say that's
not good enough.
An interested fan passed along
this poem on the topic. Don't know
who wrote it, but it sure says a lot:
The Coach
How badly you must want to win,
Not for yourself but me.
So help me play this game, dear Dad,
With dedication, goals and dignity.
Its embarrassing for me, Dad,
When you criticize my coach.
If you think you can be helpful,
Then try a new approach.
Call and make arrangements
To meet him face to face,
Far better than to yell at him
In such a public place.
I think that you will also find,
Your friendship will be sealed

Please try to go along with him,
Not judging wrong or right.
You know he's got a job to do,
That must be done tonight.
As he stands alone down there,
In front of all the fans,
Help him do the job he must,
By staying silent in the stands.
Snap decisions he must make,
Under pressure of the game,
And certainly where you must sit,
Tis' not really quite the same.
Even when he calls it right,
I often make a mistake,
That surely makes him look as thou gh
His coaching is at stake.
Sometimes he will chew me out,
Then he'll pat me on the back,
And I will get it next time,
You can count on that.
He'll take the blame for losses
And walk out on a limb,
But he'll give his team credit
For each and every win.
So be there when I need you, Dad.
Shout encouragement to me.
