A Freslilueli Fill Slums of Foriuer l'laje1'.' With a 12-7 season record, the 1981 frosh-soph baseball team finished in second place during league play. Since more than half of the team members were sophomores, they joined the 1982 varsity team as juniors. Returning outstanding frosh-soph play- ers from 1981 included Larry Collins, Stuart Dewitt and Eddie Drake, who each achieved above a .300 batting average. Other returning sophomores, .lim Mitchell, Tony Napier, and John Austin, made valuable contributions to the 1981 frosh-soph team as well. Pitch- er Shawn Mills achieved an E.R.A. of 3.72 for the season, while playing most of the time. Practice and hard work were what brought the girls frosh-soph squad to third place in the S.Y.L. The Novas were coached by new coach Becky Porter, who spent much of her own time working with the team. Leading players included catcher Julie Tillman, pitchers Donna Palato and Libby Welch, and all-around player Karen Langston. Frosh-Soph Baseball Sc SoftbaIlf69
