Baseball Team Slugs Out Tough Season The 1981 Hersey baseball team, coached by Mr. Len Bending, had a rough 10-13 season. It could have gone much better if they would have pulled out six one-run losses, including an extra-inning conference game against Buffalo Grove. The cap- tains for the team were centerfielder Keith More, pitcher Tom Huene and catcher Dan Voltz. The Huskies sent two players to the All-Confer- ence team. They were Donn Vucovich and Keith More. The team also named Donn Vucovich Most Valuable Player, and Keith More was also sent to the Illinois Coaches All-Star Game in Peoria.
