mIPiS tleid nockey etting underway Mazzerol, Karen Williams, and Leslie Wilson, all of whom will add depth to the team. Coach Sandra Curt is counting on Gaby Harovles, and Diane Zvara to do most of the scoring for this powerful Minutemaid team. She is relying mostly on Laura Hoffman, and Janice Burke to be the mainstays of the defensive team. Thursday, September 16, a strong Minutemaid team overwhelmed their opponent, Newton South, 6-0 in a pre-season scrimmage. The team’s out- standing strength and skill was clearly evident, as they showed signs of what is expected this season. With the number of skilled players that Coach Sandra Curt has on her team this year, there is no doubt that they will be as strong and successful, if not more so, than last year’s team. ‘he girls sports teams are ning off an excellent 1975-76 ason, capturing three ddlesex League cham- nships in field hockey, basket- 1, and softball.

Up front, a great individua performance from co-captail Mike Carey and eager sideline: play by hard-charging wing: Russ Whittaker and Mike Warc kept a strong attack mountec throughout the game. Lexington’s only injury in the physical contest was suffered by skilled halfback Dave Kinney. His bruised thigh will apparently not keep him sidelined for very long though. Others currently on the casualty list include Russ Lyon, a victim of mononucleosis. and swift wing Gary Lerner, out ‘temporarily with a sprained ankle. Both are rated as likely prospects for a return to the line- up before tomorrow's Wakefield battle.
