Returning players carry team In the past, Lincoln's Varsity Baseball teams have had a tendency to play extraordinarily well. The Trojans practically make a habit of EN, A making the post-season play-offs. At the beginning of the season, this year's team was expected to be just as competitive as the teams from the previous years. Throughout the season, this proved to be true. Lincoln played very well against a field of tough competitors. Although every team in the S.J.A.A. was good, Lodi and St. Mary's proved to be the .- toughest teams for the Trojans. We had a lot of players returning from last years team and we had many quality players come up from the sophomore squad of a year ago. This was one of the factors that made us successful commented all-league catcher Mike MacFarlane. Senior second basemen Mike Galanos summed up, We didn't rely on just one person to carry the entire team, we had a number of good players, and that, along with a lot of hard work, is what carried us through the season. f - - 2' , ,A-.vu ' A- xg,-.,.. xl ' 2? 4- gwngfw' afsfz ' nqizgf. give ww W ..

The Wrestlers had a rebuilding year with a league record of 3-4. The team went to the Turlock J.V. Tournament in which four mem- bers placed and recieved medals. Coach Mendoza cited George Mendoza, Mike Merrill, Marty DeSantiago and Aurielio San- chez. With only half a team the wrestlers were determined to try to win individually. They have had the most determination this year than they have had in the past. said Sophomore Statisti- cian Kelly Montogomery. The participation of this team was very good in the light and middleweight division but in the heavyweight division it was hard to fill them. The team had four weight classes that were not filled because of injuries or non-participation. Even though we didn't place high in league we had fine individaul standouts. , said Coach Mendoza.
