ca.-uc rALLo 1 ' ATI-ILETE UF THE YEAR I Craig Fallon's athletic career at Westminster is a shining exam- ple of the phrase student- athlete . Craig was not highly recruited out of Hazelwood Central High School in St. Louis, but he did catch the eye of Westminster Coach Dave Devaney at a summer basket- ball camp. He was offered a S1000 basketball scholarship, and a great college career was to follow. Craig lettered in basketball four times, and Captained the Blue lays to a 17-10 performance in 83-84. His years of sweat and 118 hustle were rewarded with First-Team All Conference and Second-Team All-District hon- ors. In his senior year Craig set an all-time school record with a season field goal percentage of 567. During his sophomore year, Fallon tried out and earned the starting shortstop position on Coach Flynn's baseball team. He hit .219 that first year, but the best was yet to come. In 82-83 he led the team in batting average l.306l, hits l191, on- base-percentage 1.4021 and runs-batted-in l12j. Unfortuna- tely a shoulder injury ended his baseball career a year early. Craig also excelled in Intramur- als, where he competed in track, football, wrestling, soft- ball, bowling, and swimming. In 82-83 he took medalist honors in the Intramural Golf Tourney. Coaches Fisher and Flynn will always remember Craig for his determination and effort, as well as his tremendous athletic ability. Good Luck Craig!
