BASEBALL 1041 In the spring of 1941 Gorham was des- tined to have one of the most sttccessful hasehall teams it had seen for a numher of years. Coach .Iensen was favored with a strong aggregation of veterans that lost the conference title only to New Britain Teacher's College. The first game was on April 30, when Gorham tried its mettle against Salem. Tony Pecoraro was on the mound for the opener with Bill Van lilaricum hehind the plate. Nine Salem men failed to connect as Tony heaved the little white pellet hy them into l1ill's hig mit. The team had little ditiiculty downing the Salemites 7 to 2. The Green and XN'hite next invaded Keene, where Gorham's hig guns cap- tured a 19 to 5 victory. Sluggers Free- man and Austin connected for a homer and a three hagger respectively. New llritain came to Gorham with a strong team for the third game. .-Xlthough the home hoys lost the hard-fought con- test, Ray Austin proved outstanding with a three base hit and thirteen strike outs to his Credit. Gorham played host to Keene on May 14. hut once more our hoys proved su- ll perior and the invaders went hack to New llampshire on the short end of a 14 to -1 score. Gorham and Salem met for the second time a short time later when, as hefore, Salem went down to defeat-6 to 4, The only douhle header was played with Hyannis. ln the Hrst game Gorham lost an 8 to 3 decision, hut in the second game the .lensen men gained revenge hy setting Hyannis hack 5 to 3 as Ray Austin hit a timely triple. The one .I. V. game was with Gorham High School. The school hoys took the game 4 to 1. Credit for a commendahle hall cluh should he paid Manager XYiggin, Coach hlensen, and to the players. Varsity play- ers were: pitchers, Austin, Pecoraro, Coyne. and lladlockg catchers, Leavitt and Van lllaricumg infield, Arnold, Free- man, Castelucci. and Crocltettg outfield- ers, 1Yelton, Blayherry, and XValker. 1 942 llue to lack of transportation facilities, the Men's Athletic Association voted to cancel a 5 game schedule and to estahlish an intramural sports program this spring. age Thirty
