Baseball After two weeks of spring practice our boys were ready to combine their talents and meet their foes for the season ahead. With five regulars back from the past season, the future looked bright. Nine of the boys; D. Pett, B. Smart, B. Rolfe. B. Hinz, R. Zamorski, D. Shan- non, J. Money, L. Rolfe, and D. Oberholtzer displayed their skill with a 17 to 3 victory over East Troy in the season opener. After this fast game, our boys were cooled off by Wilmot and Waterford with scores of 2 to 0 and 10 to 0. With two setbacks in a row the team bounced back to take two games from Union Grove and Rochester respectively. The Union Grove game was another sluggers' delight with Mukwonago on top. The score was 12 to 9. Dave Pett showed his pitching brilliance against Rochester with a 7 to 2 win for Mukwonago. The final game of the season was a 7 to 1 defeat for the team by Norris Foundation.
