SECOND ROW: Coach Bob Maher, Norm Tyson, Louis Ramke, Mike Slavich, Kieth Fraser, Kieth Williams, Joe Rizzo. Although Coach Maher7s Frosh-Soph basketball team had a rather unsuccess- ful season, the boys never abandoned the true Drake spirit. . Offensively, the Pirates relied on the tip-ins of Mike Slavich, the long shots from the corner by Frank U,Ren, and the quick shots of Robert Yim. Defensively, Frank U,Ren, Gino Steflani, and Jim Williams were the stalwarts. The little Pirates won only two games, both against St. Vincent's, but they fought their hardest throughout the season.
