Chafin Is Success
As "OK '"Coach—Guy
By BOB BORISKIE
Battalion Sports Staff
“If we can get by Snook tonight
at the Consolidated gym, and then
»take Milano in the game there
next Monday night, we’ll be in
good shape to take the district
title. Snook and Dime Box are
he teams that will give us the
most trouble.”
Coach 0. V. Chafin believes that
those two games hold the key to
Tiger chances in the district bas
ketball race for the current sea
son.
Chafin, personable 29 year old
head coach in all four major sports
at Consolidated, came to the Tig-
O. U. Chafin
ers from Hearne in the fall of
1949, at which school he was head
basketball coach and assistant
football coach. Prior to his year at
Hearne, he spent one year at
Georgetown High as assistant
football coach.
Coaching Record Outstanding
Since arriving at Consolidated,
Chafin has established a fine
coaching record in football, bas
ketball, baseball, and track compe
tition.
His Tiger quintet has a phenom
enal season record thus far of 13
tvins against a single loss, a 30-
25 setback at the hands of Love-
*lady in a tournament at Madison-
ville. Their district mark is un
blemished, with four straight vic-
torics.
Completing his fourth season at
the Tiger football helm last fall,
Chafin has seen his teams emerge
as district champs, district “co-
champs, runners-up, and third
place holders.
The 1949 football season ended
With the Tigers runners-up to Cal
vert on a season record of seven
wins, one loss, and one tie. In
1950 they were third behind Bas
trop and Smithville and sported a
record of five wins, four losses
and one tie.
The Consolidated footballer’s
Pere bi-district champs in 1951
t with a season standing of 7 wins,
Tour losses and a tie. Sugarland
defeated them in the regional
fame. Last season the Tigers were
r co-champs with Hempstead, set
ting a mark of nine wins against
one tie. That tie, unfortunately,
was with Hempstead, who was
awarded the scoreless game on
penetrations.
Fine Basketball Record
Basketball records under Coach
Chafin have been equally impres
sive. In 1950 the Tigers won the
district title, but were eliminated
in the regional tournament at
Huntsville. In 1951 Consolidated
Was runners-up to Milano for dis
trict honors Avith a team Chafin
calls one of his finest.
The 1952 basketball season
found the Tigers again walking
off with the district banner, and
again tasting defeat in the Hunts
ville regional tournament.
With the district divided into
zones in 1950, Consolidated won
the zone baseball title as a Class
A competitor, but lost to Crockett
in the district play-offs. The Tig
ers had a fine record of 11 wins
against two losses.
In 1951, however, competing in
Class B circles again, Consolidat
ed baseballers won the bi-district
(which is tops for the classifica
tion) with a perfect mark of 16
Avins and no losses. This record
AA r as attained mainly on the great
pitching of Roland Jones.
The past baseball season was a
bad season by any standards, the
Tigers posting two wins against
eight losses. Coach Chafin finds
some solace in the fact that he
has eight lettermen back for this
spring in the diamond sport. But
he is turning the baseball reins
over to Jim Bevans, and will con
centrate his efforts on the re
maining three sports.
In his battle for the district
basketball crown, Chafin uses six
players who carry almost the en
tire load during the games.
Jackson Controls Rebounds
Bobby Jackson, junior center
and two year letterman, is a great
rebound control man who uses his
height to good advantage under
the baskets. He has also earned
letters in football and tennis.
At one forward post Chafin
uses Joe Motheral, senior three
year letterman with a good eye
for the basket. Motheral is a fine
dribbler and scores a lot from up
under the basket, utilizing tricky
ball handling. He is a baseball
letterman.
The other forward position is
capably manned by David Bonnen,
junior tAvo year letterman. David
is a really great defensive worker
who keeps his man away from the
basket and from shooting. He is a
good rebound man who often gets
the ball from much taller boys.
'FboTb'all, baseball, and track make
David a four-sport letterman.
Byron Andrews at guard is a
senior two year letterman who is
a very good defensive man, a good
dribbler, and a fine long-shot art
ist. He also possesses a baseball
letter.
Settled at the other guard posi
tion is Fred Anderson, junior iwo
year letterman who Chafin says
is probably the best ball handler
on the team. He di'ibbles well and
is at his best when he is driving
in for the basket.
Cooner Very Dependable
The sixth “starter” on the Con
solidated basketball squad is Pinky
Cooner, utility man who fills all
positions. He is a very good shot
who was directly responsible' for
a Tiger win over Hearne prior
to the Christmas holidays. He
bucketed a long shot in the closing
minute to bi’eak a 36-36 tie, and
followed with another basket to
insure a 40-36 victory.
