As many of you may already have heard, a CCS Athletics Hall of Fame is being established, with the first induction ceremonies to be held at 6:00 pm Saturday, October 18, 2008. Anyone who ever played sports at CCS prior to 1970 is eligible.
Included in the first class of inductees, we are pleased to say, is the 1961 boys basketball team, whose starting lineup were all members of the Class of 61. Team captain Don Rogers is also being inducted as an individual.
Coached by Paul Lambert, this team went 19-2 overall and undefeated in league play, bringing home the Center State Conference cup to Cooperstown for the first time. This was the third year of the conference.
Team members were (S indicates starters, R indicates other Class of 61 members):
Joe Booan (S), Doug Dickinson, Tim Feury (S), Skip Frey, Jim Moyer, Jim Schaeffer (S), John Schaeffer (S), Ron Smith, Don Rogers (S), Tom Weeks (R), Don Wertheim (R), and Ken Wertheim.
Congratulations guys...we were and are very proud of you all!
