After five years as an assistant Tony Lonero took over as the head coach, when Rosie Starn moved on to Kent State. His team dropped two 1-point loses, but still ran up a 12-game winning streak the longest in AHS history until 1968. They were co-NCO champs and Sandusky District champs before losing the first game at the State in Columbus. The team scored 698 points the second highest total to the 1926-27 squad. Bob Sprague led the NCO in scoring (105 points) and the team (167 pts). Bus Hockensmith, the other all-NCO selection, scored 134 points. Seniors Bud Plank and Ken Gongwer scored 94 and 93 points respectively. The future looked bright with four veterans returning and an undefeated JV team (13-0). |
