In addition to progress in all fields of educational and residential endeavor, the Centennial year also found the return of that perennial favorite, golf. It was greeted by the enthusiastic response of one of the most formidable arrays of talent ever assembled at Saint joseph's. Heading this group were Centennial linksters Ray McCormick, Tom Toohill, Bob Kelly. Underclassmen who participated were Jim Devers, john Finnegan, jack Barry, and Ed Lagasse. Due to the one year lay-off in the sport, the team was composed mostly of returning lettermen from the upper classes and promising underclassmen from the intramural tournament.
