With most of the soccermen returning to the fray next season we are looking for a championship aggregation. It is true that the Muirmen made a stumbling start in the early season competition, but after the first few games the team seemed to melt together and really got the old “go-go” spirit. To analyze a team’s successes and failures in a post play resume is both unfair and trite. . . however, to give credit where it is due ... is both pleasing and necessary. To compile a record of seven wins Jerry Sawicki booted in 20 points and Herman Strickland belted over a total of 10. The backfield, recovering from a slow strart, and sparked by two senior co-captains, George Hughes and Rich- ard Sabat, caught fire, and with Bob Bolling, Kurt Klotzer, and Joe Krupski using the hard boot, burned through most opposition in late season play. Dave Tuthill, all six foot plus of him, played a hanky-panky but always lanky goalie position—and stopped the opposition at the end of many a long drive down the greensward. The fact that we were able to finish among the runners up is a tribute to the fine coaching of Bob Muir and to the “never say die” spirit that he always inspires in his boys.
