The Wildcats that donned the Scarlet and Grey for the 1945 season were bursting with determination to overcome the batting slump which threw them off stride last year, and were, for the most part, successful.

Krenntng, Neu, and Henneman proved to be the right combination in the infield, while Benhase tackled the catching problems.
