Regarding your old photo to identify in this week's Sunday paper... That is the Tippecanoe Class of 1976 Freshman basketball team. Pictured from left to right are:
Back Row: Bill Kerr, Jeff Rawlins, Randy Niarhos, Rick Ignet, Tom Hirsch, Jeff Hungerford, Ken Seybold, Mark Fischer, Tim Sell, Keith Stafford, Tim Perry, Doug Welty, Ty Pyles, Bill Posey, Rick Shomo and Coach Fred Peterson. Not pictured, by the way, are Cliff Hellyer and Dave Lightle, who played Junior Varisty that season. Front Row: Rick Stum, Dean Shetter, Bill Magness, Dave Hottle, Scott Shearer and Chuck Kessler.
Rick Stum, one of the best athletes in our class growing up, was out with a permanent knee injury from about this time on, missing his whole high school career in all sports as a result. A big loss for us. The photo looks like it was taken along the east wall of the Central gym.
Pretty cool. Do I win the all expense paid, two-year vacation to Hawaii?! Dave Lightle of Tipp City |
