DAVID CLOSSON c U3uili£tfTuff 1Q51- '52 The beginning of the 1951-52 basketball sea- son of S. M. A., brought together an almost entire- ly new team with the exception of three veterans of last year’s squad, Bob Closson, Tom Moore, this year’s captain, and Bill Griffin. Brought up from last year’s J. V.’s, to fill the vacancies were Dave Closson, Bob Grobuski, Bernard Davock. Bill Hay- den, Dick Fleming, and Dave Begin. St. Mary’s opened the season playing host to North Bennington and were defeated in a very close and exciting game by the score of 39 to 35. St. Mary’s led in the first period 12 to 10, they fell behind at the half by four points, 23 to 19. The “Purple Eagles” won their first game at the hands of St. Joseph’s of Albany, who were the winners of the Catholic B League last year. This closely played game was never any more than 5 points apart. The score at half time was 21 to 19 in favor of St. Joe’s but in the third quarter St. Mary’s gathered 17 points to the opponents’ 10 and went ahead, never to relinquish this lead. They won the game by the slim margin of 43 to 41. After a few losses, St. Mary’s won their second game of the season, taking on St. Ann’s of Albany at the latter’s court. It was an exciting game from start to finish, the final score being 77 to 73. This year’s varsity wore new uniforms of gold with purple lettering. For this and all the time put in for the team, the varsity wishes to thank especially Father Lynch, the Director of Athle- tics; Coach King for his efforts and the manager of the team, John Deegan.

Sautatt Baseball at St. Mary’s has always been a thrilling and exciting sport. Last year it was even more so because of the newly formed Catho- lic B league in which we were represented. The 1951 team was composed of “Butch” Ya- vaniski, ace moundsman; Jake Morin, star third baseman; Bob Closson, Dave Closson, Tom Moore, Lenny Liporace, Dick Fleming, John Moore, Roger White, Bob Grobuski, Neil O’Keefe, Jim Millett, Tom Bass, Bill Griffin, Don LeBarron, Walt Web- ster and Bob Hayden. The season ended with St. Mary’s winning eight and losing six. This year St. Mary’s suffered the loss of Ya- vaniski, Morin, Liporace, J. Moore, White, O’Keefe. LeBarron, Webster, and Hayden. There are a great number of young players anxious to fill the vacancies, and Coach “Flash” McGuire is sure that they will have a successful season. The possible lineup for this year is as follows' Tom Moore, Bob Grobuski, Bill Griffin, Walt Shaw and Jim Millett, and also aided by some underclassmen. BERNARD DAVOCK ROBERT GROBUSKI THOMAS MOORE
