WiIson's Baseball Team Captures City Crown Boasting nine returning lettermen, the baseball team sought to capture its third consecutive City and Capital League crowns. By nightly practice in hitting, fielding, and game strategy, Mr. Scott and Mr. Stortini molded the varsity into an effic- ient team. The fielding of Jim Taylor and Dave Vossler, the pitching of Mark Crandall, and the batting of Denny Brand, Mike Zenk, Chuck Will- burn, and Paul Rodgers led the Rams to a suc- cessful 8 win, l loss pre-season campaign. Soph- omore Dave Voss's bat and deft glove also added a punch to the Ram line-up. Although early season iniuries to Mike Zenk and Dan Hanson posed problems, the Rams were able to field a formidable team all during the season.
