After successfully sweeping the Bay League as a Frosh-Soph team, they hoped to repeat the performance this year. The first tournament of the year for the J.V. ' S was at El Segundo High School. They had high hopes of taking first place. The team also intended to enter the Penninsuala Tournament. The Junior Varsity team was led by Coach William Cunerty. The Saxon offense was powerful to the point of being unstoppable, scoring an average of five runs in each game. The defense too proved formidable, allowing few runs to their opponents. Important con- tributions to the team were made by Ron Blake, Mark Toma, Scot Plye, and Dave Lubben. Larry Kuhn pitches a fast one. Coach Cunerty discusses a new strategy. Bob Galardo likes what he sees. 60
