COON RAPIDS ENTERPRISE - THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 2020 PAGE 5:
This photo includes by brother, Jim Smith, by brother-in-law, Al Bolger, and the rest are neighbors and friends. How neat!! Here is the caption from the local newspaper:
We’re continuing to feature junior high basketball teams from years ago, compliments of the Bill Keister photo collection.
Here’s the Coon Rapids Junior High boys basketball team from 1958. The coach was John Pitts.
There is no report in the 1958 yearbook to indicate whether this team was
any good, however four years later these players helped CRHS enjoy a very
good season.

ReplyDeleteIt was my pleasure. I smiled for a long time looking at the image and reading the names! I would have been in my first year at ISU when that appeared in the paper... ;-)
