The team lacked scoring punch and they were inconsistent in their play; both during the game and from game to game. Much of this inconsistency came from injuries to key players, Bill Dufresne, Ben Barton, Bob Bussiere, and Tom D’Agostino. Goalie Mike Brown, Sal Ferraina and John Szymko were selected to the New England League All-Stars. In addition Mike Brown was selected as the Player of the Week in the Pepsi Cola New Eng- land Game of the Week vs. Middlebury. High scorer of the team was Pete Donovan who was also named Best Offensive Player. Other honors went to Bob Bussiere Most Valuable Player and Best Offensive Player and Most Improved Dan Griffin. 23
