Highlights of this years season
included:
The opening game of the year
found the Condors with a 114-45 win
over Redßock Junior College. They
continued to pile up the points with
a 75-74 win over Keystone, the
number one ranked team in Penn
sylvania’s Junior Colleges. The first
league game added a 90-55 win over
Scranton. The “Holiday Basketball
Classic’’ a tournament which was
held at Highacres during Christmas
pitted the Condors against Allen
town. Again we bring home a
victory 73-61. Later in the tourna
ment Schuylkill 89-84 and
captured the championship.
January 15 held another great
game for the Condors at home
against North Hampton a 74-72 win
in overtime. It was in a game
against Wilkes Barre, that DeAnglo
broke a record made by Greg
Slusser, the single season scoring
record. In a February 10th game
with Scranton, Paul broke another
record for most points scored in a
game. The last game of the year
against Alvemia (a four year
college), ended our season with a
81-52 win. The league record for the
Condors was 11 wins and 2 losses.
Next years basketball team looks
good. Marsicano, Wagner and
Swaska will be returning to the
starting line up and the local high
school talent looks impressive. At
the end of this school year, we will
be losing co-captain Galasieki and
Kuzo to the Capitol Campus of Penn
State. Simpson, Burke, Dinsmore
and DeAnglo will be transferring to
University Park.
Most Commonwealth Campus
players end their career at one of
the branch campuses. But, there is
always an exception to every rule.
In this case the exception is Paul
DeAnglo. Due to the fine perform
ance of Paul during the ’7B-’79
season, Highacres would like to see
him become apart of the basketball
team at the Paul, we
wish you the best of luck in your
career, both academically and
scholastically. Paul is a very fine
athlete, but he didn’t win those
games alone. Credit is long over
due, but certainly not forgotten for
the team coach, Mr. Caccese, as
well as for the entire Condor team.
Congratulations guys on a truly
great season. We’re proud of you
all.
