team has enjoyable N in the North Suburban Con ference said varsity base ball coach Fred Picket We challenged for the title most of the season. We had a good group of hard-working, hard-nosed baseball players, he said. We had a win- ning season by defeating top teams like Wauconda, Waukegan East, Warren, An- tioch, and Lake Forest. Some of the players who performed well and helped lead the team to its 16-11 re- cord were senior Scott Wilson, junior Tim Volpe, and senior Dan Novak. Picket de- scribed the season as very satisfying and enjoyable. Wilson was selected as the team's MVP.
