IRAGE , , Aw, 7 xf tg A N ...sw .. l i ff. f i f 'Q' s C l fi r JU Rick Carlson races across the bag to beat the throw which pulls the Cupertino first baseman off the sack. Boasting nearly an all-senior starting line-up plus one of the N-SCVAL's top hurlers in veteran Jack Hein, the Bruins were one of the pre-season choices for the pennant. The club finally finished with a 3-6 loop record as only second baseman Mike Stuart hit consistently through the season. Varsity coach Tim Goode, making his first start, was optimistic early inthe year as the Bruins upset the area's top club, Bellarmine, behind Hein's excellent relief chucking in an extra-inning contest. All-league in his iunior year, centerfielder Mike Cowan found his bat strangely silent throughout the campaign. Ray Escobar and Paul Sargenti- hit occasionally but for the most part the Bruin hits were few and far between. When Hein had his foot broken in the Los Altos game, the Bruins lost'their last hope of finishing in the first division and followed their loss to the Knights with consecutive defeats by Fremont and Sunnyvale. Catcher Paul Sargenti rips off the mask to go after a foul fly. Top chucker Jack Hein takes a set position as he warms up. Reg Gage grimaces as he takes his pre-game tosses.
