Needless to say, the team went winless that year.

When I was kid playing Parochial League ball in the 60's my team of 4th-6th graders played against teams composed primarily of 7th-8th graders. Needless to say we lost a lot by a lot. The one game in particular that I still vividly remember was when we played the 7th-8th grade team from my school. We spent almost the entire 4th quarter in our end shooting...3-4 of us had older brothers on the 7th-8th team. They would rebound our (badly) missed shots, give us the ball and we would shoot again...and miss again, over and over and over. Finally, with about 1 minute left in the game, my best friend hit a shot after his brother had given him yet another rebound. Final score...59-2. It was straight out of a bad Disney movie. Funny the things your remember...
