WRE TLI G This year's wrestling team had seven meets plus the Headmasters and Coaches Tourna- nent. Although the team did not win a single natch during the season, the boys wrestled well ind had lots of fun working together under the ible leadership of their coach, Mr. llonald Dunn. The hoys worked hard to prepare for their irst meet against Peddie School.. Although 'eddie outelassed B.M.l. hy the score of 37-5, few of B.M.l.,s grapplers looked promising. larvey Katz won a decision and Sal Giordano 'restled to a draw for the only cadet points. As a warm-up for the state meet, St. Bene- icts was the next rival. The Cray Bees won his one in spite of the wins by Seto, Sun- ieimer, and Cusack. In the state meet jim usack and Sal Giordano both placed third, ad Frank Skidmore placed fourth. The ,55 wrestling team did not have a very Jod record, but everyone on the team will gree that each wrestler learned a lot. Wle are l looking forward to next yearls team. rst row: Skidmore, Smith ll. li., Pinney, Giordano, 'to S., Scmoncs. Second row: Cusack, Suntheilner, holes, Katz, liranmer.

VARSITY BASKETBALL Swish! The last ball sped through the net climaxing the close of another basketball season at B.M.I. Although the team was not as success- ful as the 1954 squad, it was felt by coach Hoehn, Mr. Borst, and the players themselves, that each game was a moral victory. Although the cadets spelled victory against only Hun School, Bryn Athyn, and twice over Trenton Jewish Community Center, it was out- wardly noticed by all, that even if the cadets were losing by a great margin, their spirit in itself was a victory. Time and time again the fighting cadets made it a much closer score with their power of spirit. During the Valley Forge game, in which the visitors towered over the cadets, the score did not open up until the height of the Forge- men began to show late in the game. Scares were also thrown at Pennington and Rutgers Prep, as B.M.I. never let up pressure until the sound of the buzzer in both games. But again lack of height and experience spelled loses for our squad. This year Dick Pitko was the top Playmaker with a twenty-one-point average. George Baldanzi closely followed Dick and the rest of the first team rounded off by Seniors Dick Crammer, Gene Studioso, and Junior ,lim Mc- Illwain, all did their part. The altemates were Ken Rickett, Senior, Bill Opdyke, Junior and Gary Jacopian, a Sophomore, all good prospects for future years. V' ,,. Q L K-4.,e2si'?f' E91
