JV's, Seniors, Rheames
Named Top Athletes
The Hoke High coaching staff
has honored a team, a group of
seniors, and a lady eager as the
Buck's Athletes of the Week for
the week of February 20-24.
The Non-Varsity Male Athlete
of the Week honors went to the
Junior Varsity basketball team.
The team finished their season
on a positive note as they defeated
West Robeson on Tuesday night
by a score of 38-35 and by
defeating Lumberton on Friday
night by a score of 61-53.
The victories gave the J-V team
a overall record of 17-3. They also
gave the conference championship
to the Bucks as they finished the
season with a 13-1 conference
mark.
Coach George Drawhorne was
very pleased with his team's efforts
this year. "We lost our first game
to come back to win 10 in a row,
before losing to E.E. Smith. These
guys played with a lot of pride,"
said Drawhorne.
"We are pleased to be con
ference champions again this year,
and they are looking forward to
helping the varsity team next year
to secure the conference cham
pionship," he added.
The Varsity Male Athlete of the
Week award went to the four
senior members of the Boys' Varsi
ty Basketball team. The senior
members are Barriet Easterling,
Doug Winters, Mike McPhatter
and Kevin Galbreth.
Coach Greg Killingsworth had
high praise for his senior team
members. "Kevin started four
games this year and played sixth
man most of the year. He accepted
his role on the team which showed
his great attitude. He never com
plained and was always at practice
on time. He was a true team
player," said Killingsworth.
"Doug could possibly be the
most improved player on the team.
This was his first year playing high
school ball. If he had one more
year to improve he would be a
great player because he has the
desire to improve and works really
hard.
"Mike has not seen much play
ing time this year but really worked
hard all season. Mike is a fine
young man and a pleasure to
coach. His leadership on and off
the floor will be missed next year.
"Barry is a coaches dream. He
has good grades, a super attitude
and great athletic ability. Barry
will do well in whatever he decides
in life; he is that kind of person.
He contributed greatly to our pro
gram this year. He averaged 12
points per game and 10 rebounds.
He shot 53% from the floor and
72% from the line," Killingsworth
said.
The Varsity Female Athlete of
the Week went to Toni Rheames.
Toni, a 17-year-old sophomore, is
a forward on the Lady Bucks' var
sity basketball team. Toni was
nominated for her play in the
match-ups last week against West
Robeson and Lumberton.
In the 50-40 win over West
Robeson on Tuesday night, Toni
hit six points and had eight re
bounds. In the 63-59 victory over
Lumberton Friday, Toni scored 17
points and hit the boards for 10 re
bounds.
In nominating Toni, Coach
Audrey Long had these comments,
"On Friday night Toni hit two key
free throws that put us four points
ahead to seal the victory over
Lumberton. She worked hard on
the boards and did a super job
defensively."
