Show SECTION MARCH 7, 1984 pm nr oast Darrell Martin As a junior, this smooth Layton Lancer guard led his team in scoring and in Doug Moons words was probably our best outside defensive player we had." All in all, Martin turned in a pretty impressive performance, despite the fact the Lancers as a team were not able to make it to the state tournament. CLIPPERS TEAM Y K MARTIN, WHO averaged over 2 points per garni for the Lancers, battles the same problem that many high schoolers do and that's his size. If he were to grow a couple of inches. Darrell could make a gifted major college basketball player. But right now size hurts him," said Moon. 1 m aNf i i(z) vV m Si! iiii gg a b Jeff Parry ALL-COUNT- W 4 In a feat that's never happened before, Clearfields fine senior guard.

Ryan Smith The Davis High Ryan Smith' era has come to a close, at least as far as Dart basketball is concerned. The Davis High fortunes probably would have never been the same without him. FOR THE year. Smith was again the leading assist man and in Mike Gardner's eyes was the finest defensive player. But all that didn't come about because of super talent, but rather took place with sheer desire and determination. There's probably 25 players in the county with more talent, but none who came to play w ith the kind of desire Smith represented.
