Hall of Fame Coach Jack Jones guided this group of unselfish ball players through an amazing 25-0 sea- son. This run of success came on the heels of an appearance in the previous year's Class B Final Four. Despite being the ?smallest team in the (Sus) League? as Jones stated at the time, the team found that great defense did indeed lead to a champion- ship. In the finals, Sidney defeated the state's #1 ranked team Mattituck of Long Island. After the Class B title was won, Sidney lost to Bishop Timon in a game played under the new Federation bracket which pitted public schools with Catholic and Paro- chial Schools across the state. It would also be the final game in the decade of many championships won by Warrior teams under Jones, who began his coaching career at Sidney in the 1968-69
