Starting Lmeup Chosen Several prospects for starting outfield positions are David Crane, Robert Gris- wold and Donald Brown. All three have above average defensive skills. Herb Young is rated as the best catcher on the squad in early practice. Young is one of the better hitters. Other seniors with junior varsity experience who could crack the starting lineups are Kyle Schwausch, Richard Knapp, Ray West, and Robert Eveleth. Ieff Cassell, the only sophomore on the roster, will play on the left side of the infield. Cas- sell has very good speed and one of the strongest throwing arms on the team. Seniors Bart Brooks, Albert Santa Ana, Manny Aleman, Doug Kyle and Ierry Cepress will also vie for starting assign- ments. hlrd baseman Kyle Schwausch fields a grounder to throw to Pitcher Donald Brown strains to throw a fast ball.
