Coach Lysaker and Captain “Dick” Olson.<br />
68<br />
With the team hard hit by graduation and illness,<br />
Coach Lysaker faced a major rebuilding job for<br />
the 1961-62 season. However, games can be<br />
won when unselfish team play and good sports-<br />
manship are practiced, as exemplified in the<br />
aspirants who diligently practiced every evening<br />
in hopes of making the starting five.<br />
Captain Dick Olson, the only returning regular,<br />
was the tallest man on the squad at 6 feet,<br />
2 inches. The only other six-footer was Ernie<br />
Swift. The juniors, especially at the guard<br />
spots, showed a lot of promise.<br />
The loyal fans and schoolmates of the <strong>Aggie</strong><br />
team are pleased with the brand of entertaining<br />
ball the boys have played thus far. The team<br />
is using a zone defense and a screening offense<br />
based on fast breaks.
