THIRD ROW: Bob Candelaria, for Successful Season This year's gymnastics team, under the direction of Coach Harold Metz, is looking forward to a winning season. Hints of what may come were given in the first two meets when the gymnasts defeated both Arapa- hoe and Lamar. Although the team lost four senior lettermen to graduation last year, it has good depth and there were many promising and proven juniors who stepped in to replace the seniors. Spearheaded by the work of George Wilcox, Ken Candelaria, Richard Evans, Steve Taylor, Dan Fau- cett, and Bob Thorgeson, the gymnastics team is out to make this the best season in their short three year history. 3 13 , ii' A me ,. 3 3 Dan Hanson, Buddy Ingles, Jay Baird, Ray Ulibarri, Doug Evans, Wess Owen, Dean Hendrick son, Joe Va I Nick H m, Ed Taylor.

After winning the first three games by only one run, Mitchell then lost to Palmer. However, with hard work, the team won the next two games in a row. The Trinidad Miners upset the Marauders, but Mitchell, under the leadership of Gary Brown and Steve Beyer, bounced back and won their next eleven games in a row. Dave Sample was the Marauder with the highest batting average of .367. Three other Marauders bat- ted in the .300's. They were Steve Beyer, .345, Gary Brown, .327, and Rocky Wilson, .315. In the pitching department, Don Nicks led the Ma- rauder staff with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss. Ron Haines and Ed Mohler were next with 7 wins between them. ln the playoff game of the state championship, Mitchell led after three innings, 3-1. At the end of the game, however, Thomas Jefferson defeated the Ma- rauders 11-3. This year's team was a young team with only nine seniors and a good crop of sophomores and juniors coming up. Coach Bob Gill has high hopes for the 1967-68 team. '
