men's intramural athletic association The Men's Intramural Athletic Association had an un- precented year under the auspices of its director, Mr. Robert Metz. Our intramural system, one of the finest in the country, is composed of primary, secondary and independent clubs on the three campuses. This year saw improvement in the status and participation within the M.I.A.A. Since the first arrow was shot in archery com- petition to the last out in softball, Teaneck's intramural program -- governed by the M.I.A.A. Board - provided welI-rounded competition for students and faculty. More primary and secondary athletic clubs now exist than ever before. This leads to a very important question, why all this enthusiasm? One plausible reason would be that a physical outlet is probably the best release for college students in various athletic contests. A secondary reason for primary athletic clubs is the coveted Trophy of Trophies. This is awarded to that athletic club that achieved the most points for the intramural season. The only football teams on the three campuses of F.D.U. are maintained in the Tri-campus intramural leagues. This year the Mapia, a real dark-horse, won the Teaneck championship. The enthusiasm exhibited at the Tri-campus football championship was typical of the activity through- out the year - both within our own campus and Tri-campus as well. Besides giving trophies to the campus winners and runner-ups, awards are given for Tri-campus winners as well. The two most coveted awards are the Knights Helmet Trophy, which is awarded to the campus accum- ulating the most points during the year, and the Rottini Trophy, awarded to the highest point scoring individual athlete on one of the three campuses. This trophy is given in memory of Joseph Rottini, class of 1957, for his enthus- iasm in the intramural program. The following are the seventeen sports that the intra- mural athletes participate in: archery, touch football, tennis, golf, cross country, wrestling, bowling, swimming, basket- ball, 14.1 pocket billiards, volleyball, badminton, weight- lifting, table tennis, horseshoes, softball and track.
