K , scsi- Tb, elf Vzctorzour Semon When the long hectic months of winter sports had drawn to a close, the less spectacular sport of baseball attracted the attention of Rice students. After two weeks of indoor practice to attain the physical stamina, the Warriors moved outdoors and onto the opposition,s dia- monds in search of the City Championship which had eluded them two years before. Hampered by the loss of graduating seniors, the Rice squad battled their way to a second place finish and owner- ship of a 7-5 win-loss record. The Warriors collapsed in the opener, and failing to sustain a stable attacli, traded victories with opposition until mid-season. With Coaches Wielatz and Kotzian juggling the lineup, the Warriors finally found a potent combination of pitching and hitting which enabled them to muscle their way to four straight victories, in- cluding a revenge victory over Austin. With increasing momentum, the Warriors travelled their long road in quest of the elusive Championship. Unfortunately the path was obscured by numerous obstacles for the Rice squad- Having received a perfect tlzrow from tlze outfeld, Marty Sudz blocks the plate and applies zz game Sfll'i11g tag on the runner.
