Street, ended in a tie for seventh place with Univer- sity, with three games out of seven won. Losing to McClymonds, 4 to 2, the Cru- saders were again defeated by the Oakland Wildcats, 4 to 2. The varsity then broke into the winning column, trouncing University with a score of 7 to 0. Defeating Roosevelt, 6 to 5, and Fremont, 4 to 0, the Knights' luck seemed to have changed until they met Tech- nical and slid back into their slump. Tech's Bulldogs took the Crusaders off their winning horse by a score of 10 to 7. San Leandro's Pirates scaled the Crusaders' last defensive wall in the final game of the O. A. L., 7 to l. Roy Bertucelli,captain of the varsity, played shortstop for the Hrst half of the series, switching to second to form a faster combina- tion in the infield. Eddie Lake, pitcher, and Walter Mattos, shortstop, were two outstand- ing sophomores on the team. Tony Lucchesi proved a valuable player when tried at first base, Hnishing the season in that position. LTHUUGH the Castlemont track team won only one practice meet during the 1933 season, the Crusaders displayed fine spirit, fighting to the last event. In the first meet of the spring the Knights lost to Technical, 55 to 49. The following week the Crusaders took second in a four- way meet, losing to Oakland, outclassing Roosevelt and Hayward. At the annual Lowell Relays the Crusaders took a second place in the two-mile relay and tied for first in the mile team race. ln the Relay Carnival the Crusaders placed third. Their team broke the two-mile relay record by five seconds, and won the shotput. The next meet- with Piedmont- was dropped, 63 to 40. In a three-way meet the Crusaders took second, losing to Roosevelt, defeating San Leandro. At the O. A. L. finals the Crusaders took fifth place. Z T .1 If A t l 1 I

---- FALCON ET..--.3.-------..- RELENTLESS RIVALRY guarding on the part of the Crusaders spoiled INNING all practice and all O. A. L. many attempted Indian goals. The highlight games but one, the Castle quintet chalked up a most successful season. In fact, for the sec- ond time in four years, the Crusaders were undisputed U. A. L. champions, but were forced to share honors with Fremont,through forfeiting the last game of the season. This tilt was with Technical, and although a fast one, it was won easily by the Crusaders, using substitutes most of the time. The score was 40 to 20. Leading members of Coach Ross' squad in- cluded Iack Clark, deadeye, fast floor man, who collected 51 points in U. A. L. competi- tion, Paul Nash, the liveliest, peppiest mem- ber of the team, who scored 45, and Roy Ber- tucelli, steady, efficient guard. Moose Dun- stan and Dick Hilken also played outstand- ing hall for the Crusaders. O. A. L. GAMES San Leandro 19, Castlemont 32. Played on San Leandro's court, this joust proved to be a walkaway for the Knights, with Clark and Nash starring in line floor and pass work. McClymoncls 26, Castlemont 31. A game rather full of surprising plays. Good of the game was Dunstan's excellent passing. Oakland 27, Castlemont 28. Excitement ran high in this game, and there was plenty of action for everyone. Nash and Hilken, as well as the rest of the team, clicked perfectly in an exhibition of beautiful team work. University 25, Castlemont 26. Another last-minute victory, characterized by fast, united playing on the part of the Crusaders. Roosevelt 26, Castlemont 34. The Reds had an exceedingly fast team that gave the Knights their liveliest game of the season. However, cautious guarding on the part of the Crusaders held the eager Roughriders in hand, preventing them from running up a large score. Fremont 29, Castlemont 27. Tense, thrilled and hardly daring to breathe, the au- dience observed the illfated outcome of this joust with ever-changing emotions. The end- ing, though heart-breaking, was accepted by the Knights in the spirit of good sportsman- ship. Clark annexed high-point honors, Nash and Bertucelli playing splendid basketball. l i l Cxrfuxiruoxs lXI.Ll Rrurling from iff? to riglzl, Ihr N1!'I?Il'l'7'.f of this ymrlf mini inf: Iiirxl ruu'fHm'uz'f' 'I'irrr, Piml Nil.-'11, Km' Hrr- 1llL'f'lfI and Ernie Tuzvx.
