Coach Artie O'Connor and Captain Tom Murray For Coach Artie O'Connor, 1956 was a year of test- ing his true coaching ability in track and field. He had no outstanding stars as in past years, but he did have a group of talented, hardworking boys. This year the team was composed of a well-trained cross section of Ford- ham, with all years being equally represented and the School-,of Business contributing a large share of the squad. Always in the running with a Two Mile relay team, Coach O'Connor in '56 did not have the manpower that he had in '54 and '55, We all remember with pride the great teams he put on the boards and cinders in those years. Running for the Two Mile relay team were the fol- lowing men: lack Flynn - a sophomore with great possibilities, a 2:00 880 man - plagued with injuries in the early part of the season. Iohn Hand - another outstanding sophomore, a 1:58 880 man - a man with a future in the Maroon track plans. Ed McCuirk - Fordham's outstanding half miler - a man who still has to reach his athletic peak, 1:54 his best time for the 880. Walt Kocher - a senior who has earned fame both in track and cross country, last year's outstanding cross country runner, an excellent miler, and capable of a 1:57 half mile. The One Mile relay was always in the running with the' best collegiate team in America. The lead off leg was handled all season long by team captain Tom Mur- ray. Tom consistently turned in fine performances for the Maroon Squad. Following Murray were: Ed Zeman - a sophomore, the young bull on the quar- tet of 440 men. Iohn Mullane - another sophomore, best time turned in by Jack being 50:6 for the 440. Front Row: Walt Kocher, Iohn Curran, Iohn Tarsney, Art O'Connor, Iohn Hand, Art Cunningham. Back Row: Bernard Condon, Ed McGuirk, Tom Ward, Tom Murray, Coach Artie O'Connor, Ed Zeman, Bill Krebs, Ed Kilkelly, john Mullane. Leo Rivera - the man from 302 Broadway, and the only one who journeys to the campus to work out for the varsity sport. Took up where Mullane left off. Leo's best 440 was 50:4. Handling the anchor chores was Bill Krebs, a sopho- more power house. Bill completed both on the Two Mile and One Mile relays, best time for the half being 1:59, for the 440, 50:4. The Rams not only scored in the relays, but the longer distances were also handled by: Ed Kilkelly-an outstanding iunior distance man, his best time for the Mile was 4:26, for the Two Mile, 9:54. Artie O'Connor, Ir. was either right in front of Kil- kelly or pushing at his heels, Artie's best Mile time was 4:31, for the Two Mile distance, 9:54. Taking up the balance of the distance chores was Stan Fitzgerald, a hustling junior and Art Cunningham, a sophomore who shows great promise. One of the best field men to wear the Maroon and White silks in the past five years is sophomore Tom Pagani who improves every time out. Really Tom should not be classified as a weight man since he also competes in the dashes and the hurdles. Last year as a freshman, Tom scored 22 points in the Metropolitan- Collegiate Championships. In this year's indoor Championships he scored second place in the shotput and the weight throw and third place in the high hurdles. In the New York K. of C. Meet Tom scored a third place in the weight throw with a 54 ft. 11 inch toss of the 35 lb. ball. In the closing Indoor Meet of 1956, the Rams piled up their most impressive score. The Pioneer Meet was the scene of all the activity, the host team, The Pioneer Club, won the meet with a score of 82 points, we were close behind with 27. The 27 points were garnered by the follQwing,Ram scorers: in the Mile, Ed McGuirk, Walt Kdcher, Tom Ward, Ed Kilkelly, 1000 yds., Wally Bryant, John Flynn, Iohn Hand: 300 yds, Paul Bopko, 35 lb. weight throw, Tom Pagani.
