Photograph article dated February 3, 1962 partially reads, "Speed is the word that best describes the 1961-62 All-West Valley League basketball first and second teams as selected today by the Valley Times TODAY Athletic Committee. In one of the closest balloting in years, Gary McManus, Cleveland High's hard working and durable forward was named as the player-of-the-year over the brilliant Canoga Park star Bill Ureda... Oddo was the backbone of Taft's second place team. He rolled in 153 points in 10 league tiffs; 195 for the entire 14-game schedule. He was an outstanding rebounder." Pictured is Taft student, Tony Oddo, 6 ft. 1 in. center.
