Division II Proved To Be a Tough Challenge for Husky ' s Eleven The Huskies received a rude welcoming into Division II competition this year. Play- ing in a new division and under a new coaching statf headed by Clark Boler, the Huskies knew this season was going to be a season of adjustment and challenge. What they did not know was just how much of a challenge it was going to be. They soon found out by losing their first six games of the season before gaining their first victory — a 5-3 decision over Cheyney State. Unfortunately, this proved to be the only victory for Blooms- burg. Although the team as a whole did not en- joy very much success this year there were a few individual players whose per- formances were noteworthy. Duane Frantz and Bob Schwalm were both named to the Pennsylvania Conference Eastern Division ' s First Team. Also, cited as members of the Conference ' s Second Team, were Mike Blake, Bob Crosetto, Brian Greenberg, Ernie Jackson, Steve Meszaros, and Chuck Muller. Other highlights of the season included the passing ability of Kurt Werkheiser, who was named to the ECAC Division II Weekly Honor Roll for his efforts against Millersville State, the defensive ability of Bob Schwalm, who was credited with 17 ' :F- 4, . - ' s«J .i Pwy B? 1 1 H i m m M I HI M ' ' ' iMi fir p «s 31 } l B Ji Li [ E£jlAJ H» ffiikii Kurt Werkheiser gets advice from the coach and put It into action with a successful pass to a wide open receiver.

Kurt Werkheiser called the play before receiving the snap from center, as the Homecoming crowd watched in hopes of a touchdown. As Ivlike Blake got his hands on the ball, his opponent, «45, rushed to tackle him tackles in two separate games, and Steve Meszaro ' s 99 yard kick off return for a touchdown against Shippensburg. New head coach Clark Boler took over a coaching staff that already included as- sistant coaches William Derr, Joe Geiger, Carl Hinkle, Eric Megargel, Frank Wil- liams, William Wolff, and Irvin Wright. Added to this staff were new assistants Paul Boone, Al Cihocki Jr., Frank Galicki, and Bill Sproule, a former BSC head coach. Coach Boler and all his assistants are looking forward to an improved sea- son next year. Hopefully, the past year has ironed out any kinks in Boler ' s coach- ing technique and has given the players some experience against tough competi- tion. The point after was kicked by Doug Berry with Kurt Werkheiser holding the ball. BSC defensemen were on the spot to stop the action without a gain in yardage.
