H ampered by bad weather and the minimum num- ber of six players for most of the season, the stal- wart Greyhound tennis team persevered to post a team record of seven wins and five losses in league compe- tition, good for third place in the Northern Division of the Mason-Dixon Conference. The netters were led by captain Don Torres, who finished out his career in fine style. Junior Dave Mul- rooney posted an excellent nine and three record to lead the team. Rounding out the team were junior Bill Knoche, sophomores Jim Mohler and Barry Till- man, and freshman Alex Cummings. U nder the guidance of coach “Nappy” Doherty, the 1961 version of Loyola’s finksmen again matched strokes with their Mason-Dixon conference foes over the Mount Pleasant municipal golf course. Captain Chuck Pessagno, returning from a sparkling 1960 per- formance in which he was unbeaten in match play, again showed the way in 1961 as the squad’s best player. Returning lettermen Jim Foley, Bill Mis- lowski, and Ed Conway provided consistent perform- ances. After the usual perfunctory season, in which a 3-2 log was posted, Pessagno, in the all-important continued Jim Foley lifts the flag and gazes ad- miringly at the result of team captain Chuck Pessagno’s greenswork.

Still better records are expected from the voting team in the next lew years.

The Hounds beat Washington Col- lege and Western Maryland by wide margins in their two league wins for coach bill Me Kirov. Arnold Sapperstein maintained his perfect record in the 100-yard and 220-yard sprints. R it k. Frampton also had a spotless record in the mile, the one-half mile, and the two-mile races.
