Colby H.S. Hornets ( 24 November 1981)

COLBY - The Colby High School boys basketball team posted a 10-4 third place record last year but veteran coach Tom Langham thinks this year's team has a shot at the Cloverbelt Conference title this time around.

"Barring injuries, I think it's possibility," he said.

With only two seniors, 5-10 forward Kevin Baumgartner and 6-2 center-for-forward Jerry Hoffman, the team will lean heavily on junior starters like 6-1 forward Mike Rahm, who averaged double figures last year and 6-2 forward Dave Bungaard. Rounding out the team will be junior guards Daryl Hornick, Bill Bartnick and Doug Hilber.
