The 196-1 National Champion Soccer Team ' mn ' SOCCER The 1961 (-(1111(111 (if the Naval Academy Soccer Team, cap- tained by Paul Daulerio and coached l y Mr. Glenn Warner was the most successful team of the fall season. Playing a tough regular season schedule, the hooters came away unscatlu-d. Indudlng a well earned 2-1 win over arch rival Army. The early part of the season presented many problems for Coach Warner, for he had to replace the nation ' s leading scorer for three years, Karl Kaesar, and the complete ba( kfidd. wlildi was the key to the previous season ' s long shut-out string. Coming in to take up the slack were men like Karl Ferguson and Boh Brown. Myron Hura once again had an outstanding year, even moving back to fullback to lend his outstanding play to the defensive effort. Goalie Hob Johnson was another key man in our victory path, using his si .e and (juick reactions to come up with the impossible save, even on |K-nally shots. By far the highlight of the season for the whole team was the winning of the N(;AA championship on an icy field at Brown University. A victory over St. Louis University was the clincher as well 89 sweet revenge for the loss to St. Louis in the previous year ' s elimination, [{cturning home to their second Tecumscli ( )urt welcome, the team showed that Navy spirit which enabled them to win the large trophy they so well deserved.
