BASKETBALL WINS STATE TOURNAMENT
by Jason Williamson
Add versatility, summer conditioning, and talent rang­ ing from young enthusiasts to seasoned veterans and what do you get? The answer: a 17-0 record and your first cham­ pionship in eleven years. For the W-H varsity basketball team and Coach Bill Kuchar, 1993-94 was nothing short of a dream season.
Entering the year, the Rams' expectations, along with those of the public, were higher than they had been in years. The team was coming off a heartbreaking season last year, during which it was denied a state championship in the Prep B finals by Dwight Englewood. It was then time for sweet revenge. During the summer the team partici­ pated in an area summer basketball league at Middlesex
County College. Throughout the course of the 7 week sea­ son, W-H faced some of the best teams in Middlesex County, including New Brunswick, Flemington, and pow­ erhouses Bishop Ahr and Perth Amboy.
