Frosh Sporls N freshman sports the N. Y. U. athletes managed to present a good showing and helped to assure the varsity coaches of valuable material for future campaigns. The frosh football team won from St. john's Prep, Mackenzie School, Eastman Business College, Bellefonte Academy, Vermont Academy and the Rutgers Freshmen. Both Dean Academy and the Fordham University Freshmen defeated Coach Arthur H. Roberts' cub eleven. The Maroon yearlings won from the N. Y. U. eleven in a post- season charity contest. The showing of the Frosh Basketball and Football squads set a standard almost too high for other Frosh teams to try for. The court record of nine games won of the nine scheduled games, not to mention other minor engagements was hardly better than that of the Pigskin rustlers who lost but two of their engagements. The 1930 cross- country Frosh team went undefeated in dual competition, and the 1930 yearling baseball squad showed six victories for three defeats. The '31 Frosh Cross-country and Track Qwe really should say 'arty squads, though not active at the time of this writing, have a lineup that should take all of its meets. With Spitz in the high jump event, Twomey and Nordell in the mile, and Lamb, the former inter-scholastic quarter-mile champion, most any coach would be satisfied. But there also are Zarembe and Itzkowitz of the grid team out for weight throwing and other former scholastic stars to round out the group. In Fencing, Boxing and Swimming the Freshmen have shown excellent material, but aside from the coaches' report of material on hand there seems to be very little information as to any definite activities of these squads. 195

U. ball team won seven and lost six games. In 1923 the Violet diamond combination won thirteen of the twenty games played and in 1924 and 1925 the varsity outfits lost four out of nineteen games each season. Nine games out of a program of twenty-one games were lost in the 1927 season and the following year the team won fifteen of the twenty diamond encounters. Last season the McCarthy-coached nine won-sixteen of their twenty-two games.
