Jim Stickler was what you call a highly respectable coach . His teams were the ones that won championships and his players were the ones who got the scholarships for collage and news reports in the Meadowlake times newspaper. He was a alumina of Algon High school and in his day been MVP in football baseball and basketball, now as a coach and head of the athletic department he wanted to keep the Algon high school altheic program to the same standards as they had when he went there in his youth. This year he was drafted to coach the ladies varisty basketball team as well as oversee the freshman and sophomore basketball progam too.
Tryouts were the week after Halloween on a Wednesday. On that Wednesday he was assigned to cheek in the junior varsity players. So far it seemed to go well a lot of the freshman girls had some height and fairly good academic records, Jim had spent the Tuesday night looking over the players grade as was standard proitcall for players to sign up to clear grades before trying out . It seemed to be turning out to be a successful normal season of basketball for the Algon Saber Tooth tigers that was until a freshman showed up.
