24 Booters win soccerama, grab conference title Although football captured the at- tention of area sports writers and space in the local press, Coach Leon Florek's Soccer team was also cham- pionship-bound. The first sign that he had again produced a power- house was when the Bears walked away with the honors in the presea- son Soccerama. The second indica- tor was the team's rolling over seven straight conference opponents be- fore being halted, 1-0, by Cedar Ridge.

St. Joseph's and a 1-0 miss in double overtime to Hamilton West. A fourth defeat, 1-0, was administered by Toms River South in the third round of the State Tournament. In compiling its 13-4 season record, the booters qualified for the State Tournament for the seventh con- secutive year, maintained a string of winning seasons that extends back to 1963, and ran away with the Middle- sex County Athletic Conference championship. They also kept alive a record of never having lost to a team in the State Tournament which did not become the champion or the runner-up for the championship. Pacing the Bears on offensive was Tim Parrett at inside, the squad's leading scorer. Bobby Masterton and Gary Hydrusko were runnersup in the scoring department. Bob Meg- giolaro at left fullback, Mike laria at right fullback, and Dave DePinto at center were monsters on defense along with trailer Bob Guarino, of whom Coach Florek said, He's the one who runs 100 miles a game. Cliff Tinsman was outstanding at Left to right across the pages, top to bottom: Goalie Jim Dwyer leaps high for a save, Bobby Masterton about to score, Tim Parrett boots an easy score against Metuchen, goalie Cliff Tinsman shows form that kept East Brunswick's opponents to less than a goal per game, Masterton outmaneuvers Sayreville, Dave DePinto defends against Cedar Ridge, Chuck Garrett heads ball upfield, and Coach Florek preps team at half. 25
