Hiatus from 1922 to 1972 

Girls Basketball did not field a Varsity team because per the 1922-23 yearbook: 

“The girls started with much enthusiasm this year, only to learn that girls basketball 

was excluded from the league, as the game was too strenuous”. Class teams 

were formed and played only against each other until the 1972-73 season when 

a Varsity team once again competed against other schools (G.A.A. 6-on-6). 

Traditional (5 vs 5, modern C.I.F.) basketball began with the 1974-75 season.

Girls Basketball did not field a Varsity team from 1922 through 1972. Per the 1922-23 yearbook: “The girls 

started with much enthusiasm this year, only to learn that girls basketball was excluded from the league, as the 

game was too strenuous”. Class teams were formed and played only against each other during this time.
