Those of us being honored here today are also seek- g a place in that history, yet we do not know which direction to take. Some desire wealth. some fame. and some happiness. The rsuit of these goals is often admirable. Individual achievement. however must also be considered as part of the constant struggle the human race for progress. Wealth separated from a concern for one's fellow man is the most ignominious greed: fame won at expense of the people will surely be viewed in the long run as infamy: and happiness without concern for the happiness of ers is pure selfishness. A humanistic attitude is an absolute necessity in a world which can be destroyed by the mere push of a tton. We in America must especially consider the plight of the less fortunate members of the human race. We cannot afford to te an exalted view of ourselves. We must remember our origins. Franklin D. Roosevelt pointed out the importance of this atti- Vle when he said: "Remember, remember always. that all of us. you and I especially. are descended from immigrants and revolu- mists." A concern for others does not, however, preclude individual success. It is the greatest duty ofa school to instill in its students a sire to achieve. The Academy's philosophy of success through competition has discouraged mediocrity in the Academy student dy through the development of basic programs of the highest quality. Many diversified programs of questionable educational lue do not contribute to a well-rounded person. but create a confused individual. No private school can be everything to every- dv. The Albany Academy has built a reputation on the high level of success attained by its graduates. This outstanding record was direct result of the high quality of the Academy faculty and the concern for the discipline of the student body. iscipline develops self-control. character. and efficiency. but unfortunately is often equated with a lack of freedom. Academy -dents have. in the past. complained about a lack of freedom. This lack of freedom may have existed: however. the Academy dent was never free to fall below his potential. The Academy's interrelation of academics. athletics. and the military has led the dent to seek excellence. Removal of the military from the Academy education because of its failure to maintain discipline is not ustified: however. the state of discipline in the battalion is only a reflection of the state of discipline in the school. The faculty is the backbone of the Academy. l only wish I had enough time to stand here and recognize each of the teachers and ches. both in the upper and lower schools. who has contributed greatly to our personal development and to the development of school. ln order to maintain the high standards of its faculty. the Academy must. in these days of teachers' organizations. pete with the working conditions offered and the qualifications required by other schools. both private and public. The profes- nal standards of the school must be maintained. - 'vly classmates and I will soon have to choose the field in which we will work in the future. Government and politics should not avoided because. in the wake of the Watergate revelations, it is considered a disreputable field. We live in a country which ims to be a democracy and places great emphasis on the interests of the individual. but the interests of the state are of greatest ortance to the individual. We should not engage in ardent competition in defiance ofjustice. nor should we work for anything trary to the common welfare. Democritus observed: "When a state is in a healthy condition all things prosper: when it is cor- t. all things go to ruin." . ur generation will soon find itself in a position of responsibility to the state and society. The class of l977 has shown that its mbers are capable of taking on this heavy responsibility. We have enjoyed success of all kinds: academic and athletic. individu- ' and collectively. Our future responsibility demands that we continue to seek success individually. through development of our rcific talents. and collectively, through a humanistic attitude towards mankind. lf we apply ourselves in this manner. society will iefit from our efforts.

With a little luck and some decent play by the returning starters, the Cadets might finish with a .500 record. This is a record of how the Cadets confounded the skeptics in their year of destiny. Unofficial practice conducted by Captain Bob Higgins began in late June on Monday, Wednesday, and Fri- day nights. This was supplemented by the appearance of seven players at Football Camp. The attitude evidenced by such extra effort was typical of the 1976 Football Team. Pre-season practice be an on August 25 with Coaches Steck and Olcott relentlessly pushing the players through the arduous "double-sessions" right at the outset. The Cadets practiced their "Veer" and "Delaware Wing-Tf' offen- ses. as well as the "52-angle" defense. After studying the team's performance in the pre-season scrimmage against Maple Hill. Coach Steck realized the I976 Cadets could not lay the stand- ard 52-angle with its 4-deep secondary, and installed Bill Jurcsak in the "mon- ster" or "rover" position. This move may have been the key to the success of the I976 team. The "52-angle monster" defense fit in perfectly with the quick- ness of the defensive line and coupled with Coach Steck's skillful ositioning of roverback Jurcsak. resulifed in the defense yielding only 33 points in nine games. Equipped with their new, revamped defense. the visiting Cadets defeated favored Ballston Spa in the rain- drenched opening game. Tim Alston opened the scoring when he tackled the Scotties' bruising fullback in the end zone for a safety. Phil Steck passed 46 yards to tight end Mark Teresi for the only TD of the game. Cornerback Chris Dempf had a key interception for the Cadets.

Fin'n and Makey Towne did an out- standing 'ob enabling the Cadets to run out the cllock in the 4th quarter under a deluge of rain. Next the Cadets travelled to Lans- ingburgh where they defeated the Knights in another defensive battle. Quarterback Phil Steck ran 30 yards on the fifth play of the game for a TD and Bob Higgins blocked a punt which resulted in a safety to account for the Academy points. Bob also had l7 tack- les. 3 interceptions, and a fumble recovery in the finest game of his illus- trious, four year Varsity career. After consecutive victories over Dra- per, Schalmont, and Ravena. the Cadets faced the undefeated Red Raid- ers of Mechanicville in enemy territory. Billed as a battle between the immova- ble object fthe Cadet defensej and the irresistible force fthe Mechanicville offensel, the game provided the Cadets with a 20-I4 victory and sole possession if , Captain Higgins and Coach Steck of' first place in the Colonial Council. Academy QB Phil Steck scored two touchdowns and passed 23 yards to Mark Teresi for a third score. The play that sealed the Academy victory was a Bill Jurcsak interception of a C. J. DeCrescente pass in the waning moments of the contest. Albany's Bleeker Stadium was the site of the classic confrontation between the underdog Cadets and the Class A champions Albany High, the second largest school in the area. The Cadets won I8-7, and with the victory became the number two team in the area behind C.B.A. The Academy surprised the home- standing Falcons early in the game. After defensive end Makey Towne recovered a High School fumble on the Falcon 19. quarterback Phil Steck sprinted right and hit flanker Bill Jurc- sak with a pass at the 7. Three plays later Captain Bob Higgins slashed over for the TD. The Academy controlled play throughout the first half with the exception of one play, an 81-yard run by Albany's Tom Reddix. The Cadets, however, suffered a serious injury at the end of the first half which finished with Albany High leading 7-6. Quarter- back Phil Steck broke both his wrist and his elbow and was lost for the sea- son. Nevertheless. the Cadets came back strong in the second half led by reserve QB Todd Krouner. The out- standing offensive line straightened out its blocking assignments at halftime with Coach Olcott, and proceeded to lead the Cadets on a 62-yard drive to paydirt. The key play was a screen pass from Krouner to .lim Mulderry that gained 25 yards. Krouner scored the touchdown on a short run. Perhaps the weapon which won the game for the Cadets was the old-fashioned quick kick. An anachronism in modern foot- ball. the quick kick was utilized to per- fection by the Cadets. With the Acad- emy ahead I2-7 midway through the third period, Higgins quick kicked the ball past the surprised Falcon safety who tried to retrieve the ball, fumbled, and watched helplessly as Chris Dempf recovered for the Cadets at the Falcon I8. QB Krouner immediately went on the offensive, passing on the first play following the recovery to tight end Mark Teresi at the one. With the spir- ited Academy crowd shouting Go-Go- Go. Higgins plunged over for the score. Followin the kickoff. Albany High slowly adgvanced the ball downfield. but linebacker Andy Robison answered the crowd's pleas for DEFENSE with an interception at the Academy 18. The Cadets then ran out the clock for the coveted victory. Following a 58-0 romp over hapless Cohoes. the season ended with a 20-12 defeat of inspired Watervliet for the Colonial Council Championship. The homestanding and favored Cadets were shocked right at the outset when the Cannoneers marched 79 yards to pay- dirt following the o ening kickoff. But the Cadets took tiie lead when Jim Mulderry returned a punt 31 yards and scored on a short run from scrimmage. The lead was widened to I4-6 when. on the first play following the kickoff. Makey Towne forced the Cannoneer QB to fumble. and Andy Robison picked up the ball and raced 25 yards untouched into the end zone. Waterv- liet scored again before the half ended to make the score l4-l2. Bob Higgins iced the game for the Cadets when, with 7:42 remaining in the game, he broke up the middle with the aid of an excellent trap block by David Farring- ton and ran 70 yards for what proved to be the winning touchdown. 'Vliet's chances were ended when Chris Dempf intercepted a pass on the Cadets' 43. Larry Tempesta. plagued throughout the year by an ank e injury. returned to his familiar right tackle spot of last year, and turned in an outstanding game. his best of the year. When the whistle blew signifying the - end of the Cadets' quest for the perfect 9-0-0 season, the jubilant players l dashed into the locker room amid cries of 'hWe're number one." Coach Steck then addressed the victorious squad calling the team "The greatest team l have ever coached." He was promptly escorted to the showers. It was indeed the greatest season for Coach Steck. The Cadets lacked size and experience and yet were molded into the winning- est team in A.A. history by the man some have called a miracle worker. The victory over 'Vliet extended the Cadets' winning streak to l7 games. the longest in Coach Steck's tenure at the Acad- emy. Coach Steck was rewarded by the Times-Union which named him Coach of the Year and by a special award ,.i jf? Ni ' , , M 1 Y 0 W'-f5.?"1f -'L ,I Q.

Coach Steck was assisted by Line Coach Robert Olcott Il, and scouts Peter Dorwaldt and Fred Engert. The assets of this team were many, the most noticeable of which were quickness. desire, teamwork, and out- standing leadership. The leadership came chiefly from Captain Bob Hig- gins who was greatly respected by all the members of the team. The record compiled by this squad was truly incredible. Undefeated with a 9-0-0 record. the l976 edition of the Acad- emy Varsity Football Team was Colo- nial Council Champs for the second year in a row, ranked 412 in the area. ranked W4 in the state fsmall high schoolsl, and compiled a record of l7 consecutive wins together with last year's team. The senior class lost only one game in five years of high school and junior high school football. Records set by the 1976 team include most points in a season, most points in a game. most rushing yards in a season, and most total yards in a season. A spe- cial report was even done on the team by Channel 6 entitled "The Mouse That Roars." Which team was the greatest in A.A. history? There is no definitive answer to this question. However, only one team can claim the winningest record in the history of the school. In addition to the great teamwork evidenced this season, numerous play- ers won individual honors. Captain Bob Higgins was a consensus all-area performer at linebacker, receiving rec- ognition in all area newspapers. Makey Towne, Tim Alston, and punter Dave Arakelian also received all-area hon- ors. Jim Mulderry was second team all- Capitaland at kick and punt returner. Phil Steck and Mark Teresi were hon- orable mention all-Capitaland. Colo- nial Council All-Stars included Hig- gins, Towne. Alston, Mulderry, and David Farrington. Pete Campito and Mark Teresi made the second team. Phil Steck and Chris Dempf received honorable mention. Receiving All- American honors were Bob Higgins, Makey Towne, Tim Alston, Phil Steck, Jim Mulderry, and Mark Teresi. Key performers for the Academy this season also were multi-pur ose man Jim Elacqua, who providedpthe indispensable task of snapping on punts. defensive end Chris Bender, defensive tackles Joe O'Conner and Lee Rosen, who were outstanding pass rushers, reserve QB Jerry Smith, and specialty team aces Ted David, Dave Brownell. John MacNamara, and Brett Johnson. The players and coaches will never forget t is season, the winningest in the venerable history of the Albany Acad- emy.

The team won the Colonial Council Championship in 1976 after a disap- pointing second place finish the previ- ous year. Each victory for the team was remarkable, in that each represented a complete team effort in a sport of such individual nature. This team was indeed something special. The golfers posted an overall record of eight wins, no losses, and one tie. The Colonial Council record of 7-0-1 was the best in the league. The Cadets' other victory came against a tough Bethlehem Central team in a non- league contest. The team's only tie came against Mechanicville. Needing a win to secure the Council Champion- VA' ship, the team travelled to the difficult Mechanicville course to play the same team they had beaten two weeks before. This day would prove to be one of disappointments. however. A series of bad breaks. including one highly dis- puted penalty, caused the match to end in a tie. With one league match remain- ing. the Cadets were assured of a tie or better in the race for the Colonial Council crown. but. to secure an out- right win. they would have to beat Ball- ston Spa in its final match of the sea- son. In their first meeting, the Acad- emy trounced Ballston in an away match. At home the visiting Scotties were no match for the Cadets, who won KNEELING: Coach Streifer, Eric Feltman QCapt.J. STANDING: Angelo Fiacco, Lyle Seltzer, S Davidoff, Pete Sommers, Jim Cohen, Brad Rosenstein. lx the match and the championship on this final day of league competition. The cold days of October did not prevent the Cadets from finishing out their season. On October fourth, they competed in the Class A division of Section ll in the Sectional Champion- ships. The Academy normally com- petes in the Class B division of the Sec- tionals. This year, the Class B division was scheduled to be played on an important religious holiday, thereby making it impossible for five of the team's members to play. Therefore, the team was forced to play in the tougher Class A division, which was held the following day. It was on this day of competition that the Academy Golf team showed everyonejust how good it really was. The team finished second in a field consisting of eighteen schools from the Section Il area. The only team to shoot a better score than the Acad- emy was Linton, which was host that day on the Schenectady Municipal Golf Course. The Cadets finished sec- ond by a mere three strokes. This day was also a good example of the great amount of desire this team had. Playing in the Sectionals meant missing an entire day of school and being respon- sible for the work missed. It meant arriving at the golf course before the sun had risen and playing in a fog so dense that one could barely see the greens. Moreover, it meant competing -in a division which everyone said would make the Academy look bad, and nearly winning it. Obviously, no team could compile as impressive a record without many great individual players. Eric Feltman repre- Captain Feltman and Coach Streifer sented the team's greatest strength. Eric was a senior. and captain of the team. He played well in every match, and led the team to several victories. Eric shot the lowest score of the year, a 34 in the first match of the season. Eric is per- haps one of the best golfers in the Academy's history. His presence will be sorely missed by next year's team. The other two seniors on the team were Lyle Seltzer and Peter Sommers. Both have been instrumental in build- ing winning teams over the past two years. Lyle turned in many good scores, including an 82 in the Section- als. Peter has been on the team for the Q7 5 "f 1'..1 1.41 0.4 "':.i. 1.7 x'...L l l im, -K. .le , .Al -. .. f' .. .. 'Q' fs Y. .Tr .Q 4" - "au All . K . . A i - . 'N ' 'A ,fe 'f K.

Again, the team will miss these players in the future. Let no one get the idea that Golf will not be strong next season, however. This year's team started two juniors and two sophomores. The juniors were Scott Davidoff and .lim Cohen. Both players were lettermen a year ago. Scott played as second man this year. He played well most of the time, and capped off the year with a 79 in the Sectionals. Jim also played well this year. and seemed to be most effective on the tougher courses the team had to play. Both of these two players will be an important part of next year's team. The two sophomores on the team were Brad Rosenstein and Angelo Fiacco. Brad was a member of the team as a freshman a year ago. His experi- ence proved extremely helpful this year. Brad played in every match, and fx 11?-9 WM did well in each one. He finished the year with an 80 in the Sectionals. This was Angelo's first year on the squad. He showed a great deal of promise for the years to come. Angelo came through with a low score when a low score was needed. He shot a 79 in the Sectionals. Last. but certainly not least is the team's coach Mr. Robert Streifer. Coach Streifer willingly gave his time and helped make this team what it was. Enough thanks cannot be given to Coach Streifer for making a great team greater. ARSITY CROSS-COU TRY A person must take into account other factors besides a team's record when judging the success of a team. A team's spirit, its desire to work hard, and its enthusiasm all have to be taken into consideration when one deter- mines how successful a team really was. The 1976 Cross Country team had a record of three wins and six losses. This record is certainly not spectacular, but it represents an improvement over the previous year's record. Every team the Academy ran against had an enroll- ment over twice the size of the Acad- emy and the team's 2-2 non-league record against Class A opponents speaks for itself. The team was a disap- pointing l-4 in a much improved and extremely tough Colonial Council. After three weeks of practice on the hills of the Albany Municipal Golf Course, the team competed in the pres- tigious Glover Invitational at Maple Hill High School. The squad finished fourth, missing third by only one point to the host school. Captain Eric Reintsema took an impressive fourth out of the more than sixty runners com- peting. Tim Pritchard, bouncing back from a poor performance in the time trials, won the Junior Varsity race by over four hundred yards. The Cadets then defeated a young Cohoes squad I7-42, Reintsema, Pritchard. Steve Young, and Loren Batchelder took four of the first five places. The Academy made a strong showing in the Lansingburgh Invita- tional with Reintsema finishing second in a downpour. The team was then defeated by Colonial Council rivals Ravena, Draper, Mechanicville, and FRONT ROW: Steve Young, Tony Burke, Eric Reintsema fCapt.J, Dave Rowley, Mike O'Brien. ROW 2: Coach Poole, Walter Connors, Charley Kusek, John Carroll, Dave Sherley, Ed DeBerri, Tim Pritchard, Rick Schrade, Loren Batchelder. , , i. F' wssifififssass i ll si' -.

Captain Eric Reintsema proved that he is a very special type of man, a leader who could lead by both example and words. Eric finished first on the team every time he ran in the two years he was on the team. He was the most valuable runner on the team the past two years. This year he missed being elected most valuable runner unani- mously by only one vote, because he did not vote for himself. That should give some indication of the kind of human being he is. Ed DeBerri was the only three year letter winner on this year's team. He was unable to run as much as he would have liked due to serious respiratory injuries. He contributed much spirit and advice to the team. Loren Batchelder. Dave Sherley, Rick Schrade, and Charley Kusek were the other seniors on the team. Loren improved a great deal over last year and showed a great deal of endurance and desire. Dave provided many W r Till greatly needed points in the earlier meets. Rick gave the team added strength in home meets, but had trou- ble getting up MUNY's hills. Charley ran well in the Invitationals and dis- placed many runners. Captain-elect Steve Young and Tim Pritchard were the team's two out- standing juniors. In the latter part of the season, Young started to live up to his vast potential. Pritchard ran strong all year and will be next year's number one runner. The two other juniors on the team were John Carroll and Rod- ney Brenner. Both were bothered by nagging injuries and did not run in several meets. Dave Rowley and Tony Burke showed great promise and potential as sophomores. Burke was consistent all year long and Rowley came on strong in the later meets helping the team immensely. Walter Connors and Mike O'Brien were latecomers to the squad, but, if they get over injuries. they should help next year's squad a great deal. T1 A season consists of memories and this season was no exception. Some of the fonder memories include: watching Coach Poole outkick another runner to finish fifth in the coaches' race of the Galway Invita- tional: trying to teach Mrs. Poole to speak English fwe finally gave up and learned Spanishjg winning the Amsterdam meet by one point in the snowg developing a great deal of fellowship and self-reliance on the hills fmoun- tainsj of Albany MUNYQ DeBerri leading the squad onto the forty-fourth floor of the tower building in the South Mall: and, leading the school in the number of car accidents by a team. Cross Country did not win many meets, but it learned a lesson a lot more valuable than winning. It learned the meaning of teamwork and sacrifice, and next year's team will be all the bet- ter for it. When asked to comment on his first Cross Country team, rookie coach Jim Poole said, "It was a great experience for me to coach this team.

Mr. Poole added "I was impressed with a number of people I met in the sport. especially our Captain Eric Reintsema. I am looking forward to next season." 71 VARSITY SGCCER The members of the 1976 Varsity Soccer team have now reflected upon the somewhat disappointing season. However, those who will return next year can look forward to improving the mediocre record. The I976 squad finished the season with a Colonial Council record of 4-4- 2, good enough to earn them a third place finish behind Schalmont and Watervliet. These two teams were the victors in the four Colonial Council losses for the Academy. The Cadets lost 4-0 and 2-l to Schalmont and l-0 and 2-l to Watervliet. It should be noted that three of these games were lost by a single goal and the fourth was lost on a wet and muddy Schalmont field. Two of the victories came over scrappy teams from Ballston Spa and Cohoes by scores of 4-l and 5-2 respec- tively. Previously in the season these teams battled Academy to l-l overtime deadlocks on their home fields. The remaining two victories were 3-0 and 6- 0 shutouts of a strong Lansingburgh team. In non-league encounters, the Acad- emy did not fare so well, losing all five. Hudson won by scores of 2-0 and 2-l, the latter on a cold, muddy Academy field. Class A champ Troy High was also victorious twice, by scores of 2-1 and 5-0. The latter shutout again was played on the same muddy field. The final loss came at the hands of lchabod N . .1 .' - p 'iff' Vg "'L -- " - ' ".,.vu , . .- - ' -. . .g--.- n - - ' ' - , .1 A .SEL ' ,-- I ,, -. X. 2' 65 , 1.4,- 4- "af-L+? -Luci' qv. - ' -.

When com- menting on the season, a disgruntled Coach Martin said, "We were in every ball game and were equal or ahead in shots on goal, but we couldn't score. That was the problem." This year's squad certainly consisted of enough skill and enthusiasm to pro- pel the team into the Sectionals. Senior John Massimilian spearheaded the Academy front line aided by junior wings Pete Maloy and Paul Swartz and freshman inside Luis Saldarriaga. For the year. these four contributed l3 of 24 total Academy goals. Massimilian tallied nine times. Swartz three, and ... ""'-' 1-5 5?-' 75123 1: ,. ,. X. ,V.,.4gg-:,1s,s'- , ' 7' 3576" -3 ew . Coach Martin and Captain Phil Hessberg Saldarriaga once. Hustlingjunior Keith Hallenbeck. who missed the final five games because of injury. scored twice. Maloy was the team leader in assists with six. Swartz, the other wing, con- tributed one assist. Bobby Chandler and John O'Connor bolstered the attack as substitutes. The halfback line, built around cap- tain Phil Hessberg, did its job by keep- ing the ball around the oppositions' goal mouth. Hessberg himself accounted for four assists, while Tom Besch and Wes Jakovic each tallied a goal and an assist. George Stasior and John Pike provided the starters with important relief. The fullbacks, the last line of defense before the goalie. accounted for seven goals. Sophomore Tim Healy scored five times using a powerful left foot. ' " -4 ' 4 v -' . 5: L, 41'k"" "" in . ' .

After coming up early in the season along with Jurcsak. he started in nine of the fifteen games relieving Wes Jakovic. During that span, Avery collected 63 saves while Jakovic totaled 72 in six games. Recalling the season, Coach Dave Martin exemplified frustration. He stated, "Wejust couldn't get the ball in there. We were down there, but nobody could get the ball in the goal. That's our season in a nutshell." Again concerning the inability of the Cadets to score he commented "They fthe shotsj would just slip by or we would hit it right at the goalie." Coach Martin gave an example. mentioning the second con- test versus Hudson High School.

The only part of suc- cess which educates a person more is the tough climb up. To work at gaining success is much more beneficial than enjoying success already attained. The end of the season brought about the selection of two of the team's mem- bers as All-American High School Soc- cer players. Captain Phil Hessberg and junior fullback Marc Carroll earned the honor with excellent individual per- formances during the season. In elec- tions by the team. Phil Hessberg was voted the Most Valuable Player of the "t -ui... l976 squad and Marc Carroll was selected captain-elect for next season. The graduating seniors will sorely be missed. Phil Hessberg could be coun- ted on for at least 10076 effort in hustle and leadership at all times. John Massi- milian used his ball control skills to sneak by opponents. Tom Besch filled the spot of the big aggressive fullback. Wes .lackovic was most versatile, play- ing both goalie and front line. Bobby Chandler. George Stasior, and Chuck August all filled in quite adequately as both starters and substitutes. Thejuniors on this year's team, Pete Maloy. Paul Swartz, Keith Hallenbeck. and Marc Carroll, should provide a strong nucleus for the I977 team. In addition. there is the one year of varsity experience in Tim Healey, Kevin Avery. and Luis Saldarriaga. Combin- ing the ten veterans with the Colonial Council Champion .l.V. team makes for a very bright outlook for next year. Coach Martin also commented on the strength of next year's Varsity squad. He optimistically stated, "We have a good nucleus. There were six freshmen on J.V. and two on Varsity. We have a lot of returnees with poten- tial. The only question is, can they score." 7' 'jt,-ivan .. .. , ,, N 4, ,Oar .mivi Q' J' 75 VARSI Y WRE TLI Under the tutelage of Head Coach Robert Olcott, the only wrestling coach in the history of the Academy, wres- tling at the Academy continues to get better and better. The 1976-1977 Var- sity Wrestling team had a dual meet record of 9 wins and five losses, which was the best mark posted by a winter sports team this year. The grapplers finished third in Colonial Council dual meet competition, fourth in the Colo- nial Council Championships, and sixth in the Section II Class B tournament. This is truly a remarkable showing for a team with only four seniors in the starting line-up. All these fine credentials really do not begin to describejust what kind of a team this really was. In almost every match at least one person was out of the starting line-up due to injuries and almost every starter had to miss at least one meet because he was hurting. Yet the squad managed to pull together and have some good times and be success- ful. ln their opening match against Scho- harie. AA was defeated 35-24 by a team wrestling in their fifth match. Pete Campito and Bob Mattick came up with pins and Mike Flanagan, Eric Reintsema. and Loren Batchelder all won their matches, but this was not enough as the team could not over- come its lack of experience and sharp- Inq E. get 3 -A -A.-'ffl-4sA'mn even in these difficult circumstances, SITTING: David Ster-Ling, Mike Flanagan, Charlie Daoud, John Massimilian fCo-Capt.J, David Brownell fCo-Capt.J, Keith Hallenbeck, Bob Mattick.

The Cadets rebounded from this loss to win their next five matches. The Red and Black beat Hudson 50-15, Lans- ingburgh 41-30. Ravena 46-18, Middle- burgh 45-15, and Watervliet 43-3. Dur- ing this streak Keith Hallenbeck came back from a very serious eye injury to lead the team with three pins and one decision. Eric Reintsema, Jim Massimi- lian. Peter Campito, and Andy Feeney had two pins apiece while John Massi- milian. Dave Brownell, Pete Campito, and Bill Comtois all had one pin. John Massimilian. Pete Campito, and Mat- tick each had shutouts. Brownell and Dave Sterzing each had three wins, Mattick. Campito, Charley Daoud, Reintsema, Loren Batchelder, and Fee- ney had two victorious decisions. The high point of this streak was getting revenge over Ravena for a one point loss last year and the near shutout of Watervliet. Cobleskill broke the Cadets' winning streak when they beat the Cadets 35-20 in a non-league match. The match was close with two draws and three one- point decisions being the main factors in influencing the outcome. The bright spots in this meet were Keith Hallen- back and Bob Mattick each pinning their opponents and Peter Campito earning a major decision. Varsity Wrestling overcame this dif- ficult setback to win four of their next five matches. The team beat Draper 35- 24. a strong Maple Hill team 33-18, Mechanicville 39-18. lost to Fort Plain 32-23. and beat traditional arch-rival W' Albany High 39-15. In the Draper meet Bob MacDonald, in his first time in the starting line-up, pinned his opponent. Loren Batchelder led the squad over Mechanicville in an important Colonial Council victory. He got the only pin of the day. The Fort Plain match was held in the school's cafeteria and, based on the score of the match, the team wished it was held in a place like Stewarts. The Cadets had to eat a lot of bananas in order to defeat Albany High. Going into the last two meets, the team was undefeated in the Colonial Council and tied for first place with Schalmont and Ballston Spa, the team's last two foes in dual meet com- petition. Because of the illness of John Massimilian and Keith Hallenbeck and problems with uncertified scales at Schalmont, the Cadets lost to the Sabres 47-l3. Bob Mattick pinned his opponent and Eric Reintsema and Dave Sterzing rounded out the scoring by taking fourth places. The team made its best sectional showing ever in the Class B meet at South Glens Falls. Academy finished sixth place on the basis of some very strong individual performances. Keith Hallenbeck took a second, Bob Mat- tick and Peter Campito finished third, Dave Brownell finished fourth, Charley Daoud and Eric Reintsema finished fifth, while John Massimilian came off his sickbed to inspire the team and take a sixth place. For any high school team to be suc- cessful, the seniors have to show a great deal of leadership and devotion to the sport. This year's squad was very fortu- nate to have four seniors in the starting line-up who were chiefly responsible for the success of the team. Co-Captain Dave Brownell was a quiet man until he got on the wrestling mats. His I5-9-2 record, his advancement to the State Qualifying Meet, and his leadership were essential ingredients in the success of the team. Co-Captain John Massimi- lian was mainly responsible for the squad's initial five match win streak, but was greatly disappointed when a viral infection caused him to miss the 'Q' . .4-- , .. inf 1" 1.. team's later meets. Eric Reintsema was the biggest surprise of the year. His strong endurance was responsible for his I6-8 record and he led the weight room practices. Loren Batchelder fin- ished with a fine 14-8-2 and came through when the team needed an important victory. The underclassmen on the team - Keith Hallenbeck, Charley Daoud, Bob Mattick, Jim Massimilian, Mike Flanagan, Pete Campito, Rob Mac- Donald, Andy Feeney, and Dave Sterz- ing - all improved greatly during the season and should continue to uphold the tradition of Academy wrestling. Head Coach Bob Olcott devoted much of his time to the squad and his extra effort paid off. Assistant Coach Doug Bartlett worked on the conditioning of the team and was a pal to every wres- tler. This year the successes and the high points outnumbered the disappoint- ments. The 1976-I977 Varsity Wres- tling team was high-spirited, consistent, and successful. .gut ..... I VARSI Y SWIMMI This year's Varsity Swimming Team completed another excellent season, logging a nine and seven slate. With a combination of toughness, desire, fire, and pride, the team stuck together in the toughest situations. At the start of the season. they were looking ahead at a difficult schedule with a relatively young team. No one expected the team to do as well as it did, especially since there were only four seniors to lead the team. However, these seniors provided the leadership, while the four juniors, six sophomores. and five freshmen sup- plied the much needed manpower. The year started out slowly, as a fail- ure of the pump cost two weeks of pool time. This gave the team little time to get in shape for the first few meets. Consequently, losses to Burnt Hills, Troy and Bethlehem Central followed. Christmas vacation arrived just in time to get caught up on this lost practice time. An easy victory over New Leba- non and an excellent third place finish in the relays came in spite of another breakdown of the pump. Vacation ended, and the Cadets were back to the meets. Shaker, a perenial powerhouse, was the team's fourth defeat. However, easy wins over Albany High and Voorheesville, raised A.A.'s record to three wins and four losses. By winning crucial points throughout the meet, the much improved homestanding Academy team was able to finish one-two in the freestyle relay and beat a strong Burnt Hills, in the teams' second encounter. January 25 brought Troy High to the Academy pool and the Cadets shocked the visitors 52 to 31, to avenge a loss earlier in the season, and to extend their winning streak to four meets. However, losses to B.C., Glens Falls. and a close loss to Shaker, dropped the team's record to five and seven. The next meet was against Hudson. Not only did the still optimistic Cadets walk away with the victory, but broke two records in the process. Wes Jakovic set a record for the 200 yard freestyle SITTING: Rich Hulme, Tom Martin, Glenn Baller, Eric Besch, Greg Bucher, Mark Johnson, Tom Besch, Guy Everett, Chuck Creegan fMgr.J, Brian Hammarsly fMgr.J.

Voorhees- ville also proved little match for the Academy swimmers as the team swept the meet before an excited hometown crowd. Queensbury, too, was not enough to stop the Cadets. In the final meet of the year. Academy defeated city rival Albany High to finish with a nine and seven record. ln this last meet.

The season was now complete, except for the Sectionals, two weeks later. The Sectionals are the highlight of the swimming season: all the dreams and expectations and work of the year come together to heighten the suspense of the day long competition. Thirteen of the nineteen Academy swimmers qualified to compete in the finals, in which seventeen other schools were represented. The medley relay team of Rick Eldridge, Dave Rowley, Doug Van Wie, and Tom Besch recovered Coach Martin and Co-Captains Bud Relihan and Wes Jakovic 81 from a slow start to finish fourth with a time of l:47.536. In the 200 yard frees- tyle, Co-Captain Wes .lakovic placed fourth in l:54.739. Bud Relihan and Tom Besch finished fifth and sixth respectively in the 50 yard freestyle. with times of 23.364 and 23.660.

The 100 yard breast stroke was strong with Dave Rowley and Rich Hulme, while the backstroke was filled by Rick Eldridge and Glen Baller. Doug Van Wie and Duncan Leach did more than expected in the 100 yard butterfly, while divers Jud Davis. Stan Spindler. and Vic Devito did more than their share of keeping the team in the meets. Managers Charlie Creegan and Brian Hammersly did an excellent job of attending to the team, and even got in some swimming of their own. The 1977 swimming team was a memorable experience for everyone who participated in any way. The close meets with Shaker and Glens Falls, the upset of Burnt Hills. the records bro- ken, and the Sectionals, will never be forgotten by the team members. The seniors. Charlie Creegan, Brian Ham- lmersly, Tom Besch, Greg Bucher, and Co-Captains Bud Relihan and Wes Jakovic will be greatly missed on next year's team. They in turn will miss the best swim coach in the area, Mr. Mar- tin. and his unique coaching style. The 1977 Varsity swimming team was a close knit group of individuals willing to sacrifice for the good of all. Next year's team. under the leadership of Co-Captains Doug Van Wie and Mike Kiernan, is looking for continued suc- cess. ln the end, all the hardships and setbacks pay off in victory and 'friend- ship. and that's what it is all about.

Things did not look bright in the beginning because only four of the team's I7 members had earned aa letter the ear before. Mr. fChief, Lief. Fr1endlyjyErickson, never- theless, was always optimistic and always confident. Much of the turna- bout later in the season was due to Mr. Er1ckson's never-dying faith in the team. After losing nine o thelr first ten games, the team straightened out and won five of the last eilght games to fin- ish with a record of 6- 2. The Cadets started out the season by playmtg Mt. Kimberly, a high school team rom N.J., in the Annual Christ- mas Tournament. The inexperienced Cadets were outpositioned into a 5-3 loss. They came back the next ni ht, however, and defeated Troy High 5-0, thus placmgwfhird, behind LaSalle Institute and t. Kimberly. Academl-if next faced off with Taconic '.S. Though the Cadets outshot their oiaponents by a large mar- gin, they coul put the puck in the net only once. Steve Young scored the lone goal in the 2-I loss.

Academy was cheered on by many, and played to a 2-2 tie through the first two periods. LaSalle. however, a much more experi- enced team. scored two goals in the third period and held on to win 4-2. Brett ohnson saved 36 shots on goal. This is especialliylnoteworthy because Johnson steppe into the goalie posi- tion after Playing center for four years, quite a dif icult task. On January 22, Hockefy went to Rome, and played Rome ree Acad- emy, the No. 2 team in New York, and lost 8-l. Jerry Smith pushed the lone goal through a stalwart Rome defense. he following Wednesday, Academy hosted Pittsfield H.S.. Pittsfield was winning 4-l at one point in the third period, but Academg came back and tied the score 4-4. T ough they lost in overtime, the Cadets played a hard, fast offensivevgame. Among the fgoal scor- ers was akey Towne, a de ense man who moved ulpl to forward to fill an empty spot. T is' changing and adapt- ing to new positions characterized much of this year's season. Rome F.A. came to Albany on Sat- urday, the 29th of January.

Academy hosted the No. l team in Western Mas- sachusetts. Lenox Memorial High School. routing them 9-2. An interest- ing note is that this team had previ- ously beaten St. .loseph's. Pittsfield H.S.. and Taconic H.S. This indicates that the Cadets were making significant improvements in their game. The Cadets' goals were made by Jerry Smith. Bob Hi ins. Larry Tempesta. Rick Schrade. Chris Dempf and Steve Young. Young scored an incredible four goals in this game. which helped him become the team's leading scorer. LaSalle Institute was next on the Cadets' schedule. this time at Acad- emy. At the end of the first two periods. the score was 3-0 in favor of LaSalle. ln front of a frenzied home ice crowd. howevengthe Cadets scored four goals in the third period. stunning the sea- soned LaSalle plagfers. 4-3.

VARSITY ASKETB LL The Albany Academy Varsity Bas- ketball team finished its season in a flourish by winning four of its last eight games. These wins included a seven- teen point trouncing of last year's Colo- nial Council Champions Ravena and a thrilling. last-second come-from- behind victory over Draper. In the final home game of the season, the Cadets beat arch-rival Ravena 56- 39. The game was close through the first three periods with the varsity hold- ing only a seven point lead when the buzzer sounded. ending the third quar- ter. Inspired by Coach Lou Cioffi's pep talk, the team came out ready to play in the final stanza. Captain Tim Alston scored the first six points of the quarter and playmaking guard John Diamond scored two of his ten foul shots before Ravena even put the ball through the hoop. The Cadets' excellent defense held Ravena to only six oints in the final quarter. "The Bird" fiad an excel- lent shooting night, going eight for eight from the fie d and finishing with eighteen points to a standing ovation from the home crowd. Diamond was ten for ten from the charity stripe and scored fourteen points. Paul Freehauf and Joff Hill each had eight markers. Scott Davidoff put the ball through the hoop twice while Eric Feltman and Tim Healy had two points apiece. The team's final regular season game against Drager was one of the greatest come-from- ehind triumphs in school history. Academy entered the final quarter down by ten points. With 3: ll to play in the game, A.A. was down by eleven. 57-46. Then the Cadets scored fourteen straight points to take the lead 60-57. During this comeback, Alston scored six. Freehauf had four, and Hill and Diamond each had two. Dra er scored two foul shots to move witiiinf one. but Diamond made a foul shot to put the Cadets up by two.

Coach Cioffi then called a time-out to set up the strategy. Free- hauf inbounded the ball to Diamond, who dribbled up the floor, stopped at half-court and passed back to Freehauf in the corner. Freehauf shot with three seconds to go but the ball bounced off the rim. However. Tim Healy grabbed the rebound and put the ball in off the glass as the buzzer sounded to give A.A. the victory. Freehauf was high scorer with twenty-three points, fol- lowed by Alston with fourteen, and Hill with eleven. lt's too bad that the beginning of the season wasn't like the last two games.

The only returning letterman with sec- tional experience, pla maker John "Skeeter" Diamond, gractured his ankle and missed the first four games of the season. Backup center Scott Davidoff broke his nose and missed the first game. Ted David, Todd Krouner, Bart Wilkes, and Tim Healy all missed games due to various knee and ankle injuries. Coach Cioffi also lost his voice once or twice during the season. The Varsity won only one out of its first ten games. The first ame a ainst Schalmont was close, with Schafmont winning 56-54 in the last ten seconds. Lansingburgh, Cohoes. Ballston Spa, and Maple Hill all disposed of the Cadets rather easily. In the consolation game of the Maple Hill Christmas Tournament, the Cadets put it all together, shooting over 50'Zp from the field as they beat highly regarded New Lebanon 64-48. Paul Freehauf led the team with sixteen points and John Dia- mond, coming back to start after his injury, inspired the team with great floor play.

After being blown off the court in the first half, 42-I6, the team came out ready tocplaif in the last two quarters. The squa p ayed good. hustling basketball, but could not over- take the Red Raiders. In their next game. against Watervliet, the Cadets again played good hoop, but the Can- noneers fColonial Council Champs! were just too tall. Draper used two foul shots in the last ten seconds to defeat the Cadets in their first meeting, 57-56. Ravena also beat the Cadets the first time the two teams played, in overtime, 50-47. Academy won four of its last eight games to salvage the season. Behind Tim Alston's perfect shooting, the team soundly defeated Schalmont in the last quarter, 56-44. Cohoes and Lansing- burgh both beat the Cadets, but only by nine points each. With "Fuzzy" Feltman scoring twenty-One points and playing. the best game of his life, A.A. got revenge on Ballston Spa. 54-47.

A basketball team is made up of about twelve players, a couple of man- agers, and a coach. Here are the people who made up the 1976-1977 Albany Academy Varsity Basketball Team: TIM "BIRD" ALSTON - The cap- tain of the team, he led the Cadets in every category exce t foul shooting percentage. He was the M.V.P. of the team and tied for the team lead in tech- nical fouls with Lou. The Bird was known for his hustle and his arguing with the opposition's coaches. ERIC "FUZZY" FELTMAN - When he was hot he was HOT, and when he was not he was NOT. Fuzzy was known for his arching corner shots and his determination. TODD "CAPTAIN K" KROUNER - Helped the team out in the begin- ning of the season and got splinters in the last part. He was the leader of the scrub team and star of the first Schal- mont game. TED "ACROSS-THE-STREET" DAVID - One of the best defensive players in the league, he always drew the opposition's best scorer. Ted was known for his good humor and post game exploits. BART "SILK" WILKES - Likes fish- ing better than basketball. He was always ready to perform when called upon, and liked to shoot from the cor- ner. ED "CHIPPER" WILKINSON - Came all the way from Amsterdam 'ust to play hoop. Chip didn't have the best hands in the league, but he liked to do tip drills. JOHN "SKEETER" DIAMOND - Has a picture perfect set shot. Next year's captain from Watervliet fthe third in a row from that metropolisj. He got the cast off his ankle in time to lead the team in foul shooting. PAUL "HAUF" FREEHAUF - Should have made the all-tourney team 4 1 I . X if v' av VA 4, 4. 'J -. J C' 1 J' - ...4l.. ?

He loves to argue about hoop. but tends to be the slowest in drills. SCOTT "LEROY" DAVIDOFF - Has a good shot but can'tjump. He's a good defensive center. but likes to foul a lot.

The netmen com- pleted the season with a record of 14-O, the third Academy team to go unde- feated this year. For the past few seasons, the tennis team has had excellent records, losing only one or two matches each year. As the team began the year, it was looking forward to another successful record and the return grudge match with Hud- son. a perennial thorn in the Acade- my's side. The season began with unexpected sunny weather which gave the team two weeks of practice. Vacation fol- lowed and permitted two more weeks of individual practice. This was neces- sary because the day after vacation ended our first match took place. Christian Brothers Academy was no match for the experienced and prac- ticed Red and Black team falling 6-1. Ballston Spa was also no match losing 7-0. The following week proved to be the toughest of the regular season. Lans- ingburgh invaded the Academy courts l . .-'x"'-65,1-if ,- , .

The matches were the tightest of the year and it was a test for everyone to win. The next Academy foes, Mechanic- ville and Watervliet, were little compe- tition, both falling 7-0. Ballston Spa was another Academy victim, succum- bing 6-1. The next two days brought the return of Lansingburgh and the grudge match with Hudson. Lansingburgh had been tough the first time we played them and we expected another long and hard day. Number one Brad Rosenstein, number two Wes .lakovic and number five John Grosvenor won quickly and easily. However number three Chuck August and number four Mike O'Brien were struggling with their opponents. Chuck after winning the first set drop- ped the second and was even in the third. Mike, on the other hand, had lost the first set and was behind in the sec- ond. As Coach Martin and Captain Jakovic were making plans for possible doubles combinations, a near miracle occurred. Trailing 5-2 in the second, Mike came back to win the second set and after being down 5-3 in the third, won the final set 7-5. In the meantime Chuck had won his third set in a tie- breaker 5-4. The team went on to win the hard-fought match 7-0. Hudson, the next day was the match of the year. The Academy team played so well they blanked the Hudson team 7-0. Schalmont was the next Academy opponent and lost 6-l in an easy match for the Cadets.

The Colonial Council Champion- ships, held at the Academy this year, took place on May I9. The final out- come was an Academy victory in both the singles and the doubles, with Brad Rosenstein taking the honors in singles and Chuck August and Capt. Wes Jakovic in doubles. This earned the three the right to play in the individual sectionals later in May.

Holding down the number one position all year was Brad Rosen- stein. Brad. like all the other singles players was undefeated this year. Win- ner of the Colonial Council singles championship. he was one of the most steady players on the team. At the number two position was Captain Wes Jakovic. Not only was he undefeated in singles this year. but he was also unde- feated in singles matches during his entire Academy career. This year's Newman Cup winner was also Colonial Council doubles champ. Chuck August. at number three. was perhaps the most exciting player to watch. As the other half of the Colonial Council doubles championship team. he showed versatility in both singles and doubles. Number four Mike O'Brien was also a steady player. Bothered by a bad back for part of the year, he over- came this injury to play an essential part on the undefeated team. John Grosvenor was this year's number five player. John is one of those players who will bore you to death by getting all his shots back and waiting for you to make the mistake. John went through the whole season without los- ing a set. Number six Dan O'Brien and number seven Brien Bolsinger played Z A f ,' 2.-12Qfj2Ci j .1 .tj excellent tennis throughout the year. Dan in singles and Brien in doubles. This year. the Academy extended its unbeaten streak to 26 regular season matches. lt also has a 39 match unbeaten streak in the Colonial Coun- cil. VARSITY TRACK AND FIELD This year's Varsity Track team got off to a slow start. Beset by numerous injuries and limited practice time because of Spring Recess, the team was somewhat behind the other teams at the beginning of the season. The fine coaching of Mr. Poole and Mr. Steck brought the team around to a winning season. The cindermen enjoyed a record of 6-3 in individual meets, a fifth place finish in the Colonial Council Championships, and second place in Division II of the Hudson Invitational. The team opened against Chatham on April 21 away. Steve Young led the Cadets, capturing first in both the high and intermediate hurdles. John Mac- Namara won the 220 in an impressive 23.5 and Bill Jurcsak took the 100 eas- ily in 10.5. Keith Hallenbeck led in the field events with a first place in the pole vault. Tom Finn and Andy Robison got seconds in the shot put and discus, respectively. Academy could not stave off Chatham's potent attack and lost narrowly, 54-52. On a rainy Saturday, April 23, the cindermen travelled to Hudson High School for the Hudson Invitational. There they competed against eight teams in the small school division. Steve Young again led the Cadets with a third in the 330 intermediate hurdles and a second in the 120 high hurdles. Makey Towne placed second on a slow track in the 440. The 880 relay, consist- ing of Jim Elacqua, Freshman Jim Forni, John MacNamara, and Bill Jurcsak captured first. In the field events, Andy Robison placed second in the discus and Keith Hallenbeck took second in the pole vault. The team came in second in Division II behind powerful Ichabod Crane.

Highlights of the meet were Mackey Towne's capture of the 220 and Steve Young's firsts in the hurdle events. In the field, Andy Robison gained first in the discus and Bud Relihan and Kevin Avery placed second in the high jump and triple jump, respectively. Despite fine efforts and general high spirits the team lost 84-43. The Cadets travelled to Ravena to face a powerful Indian Team on a rainy April 28. Though the Cadets were defi- nitely outclassed by the Ravena squad, there were several notable perform- ances. Steve Young got off to a very fast start in the high hurdles and held on to win in the time of 16.2. Steve also took second in the intermediates. Bill .Iurcsak came up with a second in the 100 with the flashy time of 10.8. John MacNamara and Dave Farrington went 2-3 in the 220 while Makey Towne won the 440 in 55.8. Keith Hal- lenbeck won the pole vault with a ten foot effort. Andy Robison won both the shot put and the discus with throws of 43'4" and l32'l0" respectively. Finally, Freshman Kevin Avery took second in the long jump. The Cadets returned home to face Schalmont on April 30th. Steve Young continued his winning ways, capturing firsts in the high hurdles 06.51 and the intermediate hurdles 14331. Billy Jurc- sak took second in the 100 behind a fast Jerry Masucci of Schalmont. Jim Elacqua placed second in the 220. The two mile relay of Makey Towne, Eric Reintsema, Phil Hessberg, and Tim Pritchard finished first. Paul Schwartz won the mile walk, a non-scoring event added in the Colonial Council this WP91-x Y , . .I yawn yvt x. year. Phil Hessberg and Bob Chandler went 2-3 in the mile. The field events also produced points. Keith Hallenbeck and Judd Davis took first and third, respectively, in the pole vault. Andy Robison and Tom Finn picked up second and third in the shot put, and finished l-2 in the discus. Steve Young, a triple winner, took the triple jump. The meet was close, but Academy pulled through to win 7l-70. In a double dual meet on May 3rd, the Cadets crushed both Mechanicville and Draper, HOW-30W and lllw-2816.

After the smoke cleared, Academy had won 8M-SIM. Cohoes was Academy's next victim as the Cadets rolled on with the season. The score was 109-32. At the Lansingburgh Invitational, Academy finished fifth. Shining per- formances were turned in by Makey Towne. Eric Reintsema, and Keith Hallenbeck. As at Lansingburgh, so also at the Colonial Council Champi- onships the Cadets took fifth place. 9 V11 lr . 8 U I , ...... .. Ur ' wi ii Y 'f ini 1 'ii by ' i f . E, 1- 33, y ' lf Ig as ' 1. , .

" This time, Andy Robison, Bill Jurcsak, Keith Hallenbeck, and Makey Towne made good showings. Cardinal McCloskey fell victim to Academy on May 20th by a score of 84-45. At the City Meet, Academy came in third behind C.B.A. and Albany High. Steve Young led the team with a sec- ond in the high hurdles and a third in the intermediates. ln the sectionals, Academy scored 4 points, Andy Robison provided 3 points by capturing a fifth and a fourth in the shot and the discus. The other point was turned in by the mile relay team. This year's season was quite a turna- round from the first few losses. It was a satisfying season. Even though the cin- dermen finished fifth in the Colonial Council Championships, they actually came in third in the Council in dual meets. Mr. Poole must be credited with whipping this team into shape despite the track conditions, vacations, and injuries. It was a good season. sill lill Ill!

Non-league victories came over Cardinal McCloskey twice and Albany High once. Poor infieldinlgcproved to be the downfall of the '7 adets. Hitting was never a problem. The team pounded out a fine .263 team batting average and recorded the second greatest num- ber of hits C1513 by a team in the his- tory of the Aca emy. The three big hit- ters for the Cadets were Bob Higgins f.344J, Phil Steck f.3l7j, and im Alston 33171. The pitching staff of Jim Cohen 4-4, 3.3l:'ZlJ, ohn Diamond Q4-3, l.50J, and Joff ill Q2-2, 6.l9zJdid a fine 'ob throughout the season. aul Free- 'hauf and rett Johnson also saw action on the mound as relief pitchers. The outfield consisted of Captain Jim Mulderry in center field, Mark Teresi in left, and Phil Steck in right. The fleet-footed Mulderry stole twenty bases and hit in the leadoff position. He compiled a .257 batting average. Teresi had a strong throwing arm, and despite a number of strike outs, he fin- ished with a .192 average. Steck was a clutch hitter who hit in t e number five spot in the batting order, recorded six- teen RBIs, and le the team in doubles with four. He was an extremely versa- tile ballplayer, seeing action at first base, second base, third base, and left field in addition to his regular right field post. The infield consisted of Tim Alston at first, Paul Freehauf at second, Brett Johnson at third, and John Diamond at J FRONT ROW: Mark Teresi, Tim Alston, Captain Jim Mulderry, Phil Steck, Bob Higgins.

Alston was the tearnis cleanulp itter and he responded with team eading statistics in home runs Savith threej, triples Cwith fourj, and Bls fwith twenty-onej. He recorded the highest slugging percentage in the history of the school, .635, and had a propensity for hitting the baseball great distances. Freehau was a consistent .256 hitter, but had trouble with his fielding throughout the season. He managed to hit a home run on the fast and hard Cohoes field. Johnson was a courageous, if not slick fielding third baseman. He compiled an excellent .308 average and was known for his base-running exploits. Diamond hit .258 and batted in the number two spot in the batting order. The catcher this year was so homore Chuck "Andy" Andros. A big man with a big swing, he hit .l90, but threw out numerous opposing base runners attempting to ste-al. Headmaster's Bat winner Bob Higgins was the best hitter on the sciluad and consequently hit number t ree in the battin order as the designated hitter QDHJ. lge was last year's Colonial Council All-Star catcher, but was unable to appear behind the plate too often due to a shoulder injury suffered in hockey. Paul Jurcsak was the team's utility man, appearing at second, short, and in right field. He started off the season with some key hits, but slumped in the second half and finished with a .147 batting average. l r Nfl.- 1 7. .Q , ..

"' by a severe knee injury, was a reserve third baseman. The 1977 baseball team had great potential, but the season was lost on many an overthrow, missed grounder, missed catch. and missed tag. The clutch hitting of Higgins, Alston, and Steck, the heart of t e batting order, kept the Cadets in almost all of their games. The sgeed of Mulder? proved to be a valua le asset, both o fensively and defensively, all season. Pitchers Cohen and Diamond were superb, and added hittin was available in the per- son of Brett fohnson. The fine crowds which saw the Cadets in action witnessed perfect, errorless baseball one day, and exhib- itions which resembled the infamous 1962 Mets on other days. The all junior infield will return next year, but some may be playing! different positions. In ad ition, Coac. Dorwaldt will return his entire pitching staff to the mound next season an will have a solid catcher in Chuck Andros. However, the seniors, Alston, Mulderry, Higgins, Steck, and Teresi, will be sorely missed, both at the bat and in the field. Never- theless, prospects for the future look good and it is almost a certainty that Academy baseball will continue its out- standing record under Coach Dorwaldt in the future. fad,-1 lx" 1 "-cn , . - AN..

A town house in London, a villa in Spain, A chalet in Ostaad. a beach pad in Nice. An apartment in Paris, a pavilion in Greece, A chef who learned to prepare haute cuisine, A girl who'd been chosen the queen to end queens: But now I know something that's even more rare.

D 205 3- ,11.2gmgQ,,g1,-. 14 i ' 1 The Cue, our school yearbook, in its inception in the l87O's, was a paper-bound collection of totally execrable English composition by the boys. In 1903, William Rose Benet, of the fifth form. decided that the Cue should become a bona fide school annual. Bill put a cover on his book, changed the format to copy, pictures, and captions. Then Bill went off to Yale, confident, we assume. the Cue would never rise again. In all deference to William Rose Benet, I have some news for you, dear friends. The Cue is still alive and kicking. Cue experience, to a boy, is invaluable: pictures, deadlines, written expression, organization. The business bit, in which boys wheedle, cajole, and possibly extort a small fortune from parents and friends must surely be invaluable. Colley's 1976 Bicentennial Cue is a classic, a tough act to follow. Let's try! Melville, Fenimore Cooper, Teddy and Kermit Roosevelt, Bill Benet, Judge Learned Hand, Andy Rooney, and Michael Sacks were Cue boys. Come and help me with the Cue.

The following individuals shared our devotion to the task and we are greatly indebted to them. As much as they deserve our personal thanks, they deserve recognitii for what they have done. Larry Tempesta for our share of the Schenectady ad market. And for his humor. Bob Davis and Bob Higgins for their bang-upjob on the Senior Writeups. 1 Sam Roth and Wes Jakovic for extra help when it was really needed. Mark Dempf. only a IV former, for multitudinous photographs of superb quality. Jerry Smith and Andy Robison were often stuck with thejobs no one else would do, and didn't complain. Best of luck to the as co-editors next year. Ramark-Varden Studio for the Senior portraits and for taking pictures whenever asked. A special thanks to Joe Duncan. Mr. James Simmonds. the representative of the Taylor Publishing Company, for technical advice, understanding our proble and the ads' section. The dedication of five people was most unusual. Their work is best expressed in the trite. but truly applicable expression "ah and beyond the can of duty." l Ed DeBerri and Charlie Creegan for their unusual willingness to work and their contributions in almost every aspect of the book. Even during the summer they never had trouble finding time to help out. Charlie and Ed were of greatest value in the mechanics of putting together the book. Greg Bucher for his excellent photography and helpful darkroom work. He was the CUE photographer on the spot at most . Academy events. Mike Ryan for shouldering the financial responsibilities of the book. To Mike it was almost a full timejob. Without him CL 1977 would never have been published. I-le did more than his share. Mr. Nash for guidance, enthusiasm. encouragement, and some good laughs. We were lucky to have him as our faculty advi. As anyone on the staff knows. FN and CUE are synonymous. CUE 1977 is the culmination of our stay at the Academy. We have attempted to capture what we believe is the essence of th Albany Academy. We hope it does the same for you. 'Q .
