Sidney High Bus Team Eyes Back-To-Back Title
Tom O Connell fought hard for the ball and showed he is a fine shot. Janiory Borcher is a fast and good ball handler and has great fighting spirit. Mickey Holtman was unable to play because of recent illness. Coach Lee Shuman was able to play all 20 of his first line basketball men in the two games. The season has just started and it may be too soon to start predicting, but it looks as if Sidney is going to have another championship team if the school and home town back the boys this year as well as they have in the past.
