Vwwitg Baseball, With a new school, inexperience is always the first problem that will come into a coach's mind. Inexperience this year is a major problem, but regardless our team is on its way to a very successful season. In Non - League games our 3-1 record was very impressive and in league play we expect the team to surprise our opponents. We have ballplayers from Overfelt, Mt. Pleasant, Hill, and Oak Grove, but they still all work as a team. Our hitting attack is led by Richard Ele- men, Ruben Soto, and Mark Tyrrell. All hitting well over .300 at the beginning of the season. An impressive pitching staff is led by Sophomore Dave Matusich and Senior Mike Gutierrez. All the players, along with their Coach, hope to prove all sceptics wrong who say a new school can't win ball games. 80

Not pictured- Tom Cabral JW- Vwwffg Baseball I The Silver Creek Junior Varsity Baseball Team rests its hope upon the pitching arms of four men. If John Chenoweth, Ralph Horio, Mario Mocksing, and Eliseo Lopez can silence the weapons of opposing batmen, the Raiders will present problems in the MHAL. Defensively, the Raiders are more than adequate. Dave Shipman and Jim Romo provide the protection behind the plate. Jim Hoff has improved considerably at first base since the start of the season. The keystone combination of Bill Clement QSSJ and Larry Lema QZBJ make the Raiders strong up the middle. Tom Cabral and Bob Mendez have been in a battle for the 3rd base job since early March. The outfield consists of Jay Johnson, Fred Flores, and Terry Gard. All have good speed. Offensively, the bats of Bill Clement, Dave Shipman, Jim Hoff, and 1 Eliseo Lopez must supply the punch that is needed to win. n
