The Gaucho baseball team under the mentorship of Rene Rochelle ushered in the season with a win over a favored alumni squad. Rochelle ' s pitch- ing staff included veterans Jim Hezlep, Bill Wetzel and Fred Warricker along with newsomer Jim Es- careno, a transfer from Ventura Junior College. War- ricker was the lone left-hander on the mound staff. Against a highly touted Alumni team, the horse- hiders unleashed a ten hit attack led by Vaughn Wipf, Frank Stevens and Rich Gunner. The mound chores were shared by Bill Wetzel. Jim Escareno and Jim Hezlep. Wetzel twirled hitless ball for three rounds while nursing a one run lead. Escareno and Hezlep finished out the game. Returning from two successful games in the San Diego area, the Coach Rene Rochelle Gauchos broke into the big time with a stunning victory over the Bruins of UCLA. The Gaucho hurler Bill Wetzel stalled the Bruins while his teammates ganged up on several UCLA pitchers for an eight to six win. Wetzel, after surviving a shaky second inning when the hosts jumped off to a three to zero lead, scattered five hits in the remaining five frames to become the first UCSB hurler to go the distance. The winners rapped out eight hits, including two apiece by Ron Williams, Rich Gunner and Frank Stevens. Stevens picked up UCSB ' s only extra base blasts with a double and a triple. This was the third upset of the still-young season that the Gauchos had administered to their foes. They opened the year with a victory over a favored Alumni crew and had outhammered a pro-studded San Diego Marine Recruit Depot team in a sixteen to fifteeen slugfest. Newcomer Escareno had come on in relief to get credit for each of the Gaucho first three wins. Against the cross-town rival, Westmont, UCSB fell from the ranks of the undefeated by a six to four setback. The Gauchos were unable to find their clutch hitting which has proven timely in earlier games. Jim Hezlep opened on the mound for the losers, but gave way to Escareno in the fourth, who absorbed the loss (three lo one for the season). Frank Stevens and Ron Williams each contributed a pair of hits for the losers. Bill Shortell, Ron Heus- ser, Vaughn Wipf and Bob Fraass each added a single safety to the UCSB effort. In a week-end twin bill the Gauchos were handled by the powerful SC Trojans, five to zero, and nine to five.. Regard- less of the booming bat of Vaughn Wipf the Gauchos never threat- ened the NCAA champs.
