FROSH BASKETBALL For the first time in his career as freshman basketball coach at UD, Herb Dintaman experienced a losing campaign. After a 36-sl-1 season with the Dayton AAU League champions a season before, Dintaman's 1961-62 group finished last in the amateur league and were able to win only eight of their 27 season games. Playing one of the toughest of any college freshman schedules in the country, the first-year Flyers showed improvement during the second half of the season, Win- ning six of their last 14 games. That fair finish enabled the team to prevent what had begun to be a totally disastrous season. In their initial 13 tilts the frosh were able to win only two, and suffered a seven game losing streak. With only six scholarship players on the team, Coach Dintaman was forced to use players recruited from the student body and their play often left much to be desired. Top prospects for the varsity include Bob Sullivan, Earl Lindholtz, Phil Sherer, and Ralph Steffano. Sullivan and Lindholtz finished 1-2 in scoring C172 and 10.5 respectivelyj and rebounding t268 and 2301 among this y63l'i5 Flyer freshmen. Steffano and Sherer, who maintained scoring averages of 9.0 for the '61-62 freshmen, should help next year's varsity. l I I This is what is known as a layup, boys X, it I3 t'Come to Mama You guys can have the ball . . .

Scalia established not one, but two marks for future UD soccer men to shoot at. Scalia guarded the nets like a Mother Lion. knocking down 162 opponent shots in the nine games. Against Earlham. Toni diverted 31 shots aimed in his direc- tion. a new UD record. 204 The University of Dayton soccer team won more games in the 1961 season than they had the previous two campaigns. Coach ,Iohn Weisleris squad registered a 4-5 record in 561, representing three more victories than in the 1958 and 1959 seasons when they com- piled mediocre 1-5-2 and 1-8 records respectively. Three big reasons for the Flyer kickers, turnabout play in '61 were the offensive efforts turned in by Ed Hidalgo and Al Yeung and the outstanding, often spectacular goaltending provided by Toni Scalia. Yeung just missed setting a school record for most goals scored in one season. The Hong Kong sophomore slapped 11 scores into the nets, one short of tying the record. Hidalgo contributed 10 goals to the Flyers' cause. Together, the foreign flashes, accounted for 80 per cent of the team's total of 27 goals scored in the season. Injuries cut into the team's effectiveness midway in the schedule or it might have been a winning season. Players like Maricio and Ramiro Nieto, Rich Winkler, Jerry Lau, Andrew Evwaraye, Chuck Zubuchen, Yeung and Hidalgo could give Coach Weisler his first winning season next year. Soccer at the University of Dayton shows definite signs of rising up to its 1956 level when the Flyer booters held the No. 1 ranking in Ohio. A step in the right direction in reference to next year's team came in the 1962 springgame against Miami. The Flyers whipped the Redskins. 6-2, and gave indications that brighter days lie ahead.
