Schieffer. 170 TRACK Bolstered by the talent from the 1963 Frosh track team and a nucleus of five veterans, the 1964 track squad finally numbered twenty- one. The sprints and broad jump were handled by Isaacs, Gould, DeSoto, and Spaller, while Walters, Nazarian, Schaal and Meyerhoefer ran the middle distances and relays. Eipps and Hassler provided the mainstays in the hurdles, and Davis Van Essendelft carried the burden in the mile and two-mile runs. The team's basic weakness proved to be a lack of depth in the field events, but Cousins and Nacht handled the shotput, Opdyke and Cousins threw the discus, and Hassler was the lone high jumper. The big spear was thrown for the Lakers by Gould, Parker, and Eipps. The team ultimately compiled a two-win and three-loss record. Although both of their dual meets ended in defeat, the 1964 Frosh Lakers possessed a high degree of drive and ambition. Several members of the freshman team did well in their first collegiate competition and they should add much needed talent and strength to the 1965 team.

Although Oswego had to relinquish its 1962 and 1963 SUNY Baseball Conference Cham- pionship Crown to Cortland, the Laker batmen placed second in Conference standing with a fine 10-2 record and overall 13-5 rec- ord. On their annual spring vacation trip to the NYC area the Lak- ers won a decisive victory over Adelphi College, who later became champions of the Knickerbocker Conference. Good, fielding and fine pitching provided one seven-game winning streak and five straight victories at the end of the season. In all, the Lakers made fifteen doubleplays, quite an accomplishment for a college team. Although baseball is p'rimarily a team sport, a lot does depend on the individual talents of each player. The Lakers were unusually fortunate in this respect. Shortstop Milton Brown lead in the team in both the field and at bat with a total of seventy-four hits and a comfortable low of six errors. He also maintained the highest bat- ting average, his being .365. Three other players on the team made the All- Conference team: Co-captain Chuck Stanek, OF, Matt Kupic, 2B, and Kevin Kimau, Pitcher. Honorable mention went to Milt Brown and Wayne Kenner. The Laker baseball yearlings finished the '63 season with an exciting last-inning victory over the R.l.T. frosh providing them with a record of three wins and five losses. Left-hander Dick Heidel pitched the victory, his third against two losses. Catcher Bob Heneka provided the Lak- ers with a strong bat all year averaging over two hits per game. Other frosh Lakers who will be making strong varsity bids this year include Dave Collins IF, Frank Campise IF, Bernie Full- er IB, Bob Perkins OF, and Lou Magnarelli OF and IF. 3 Oswego vs Cortland 13 6 Oswego vs Manlius 9 26 Oswego vs R.l.T. 1 3 Oswego vs Brockport 17 6 Oswego vs Manlius 3 O Oswego vs Cortland 8 4 Oswego vs Cortland 11 7 Oswego vs R.l.T. 6 L
