Wozniak Maiden Top ofe I SPORTS Sports 55 T he 1986-1987 athletic year at Suffolk University was one of change, challenge, and committment on behalf of those student athletes who represented this University throughout the academic year. The fall season for cross-country was high- lighted by the performance of Meg Leary of the Women ' s Team as a recognized NCAA Regional competitor. The Men ' s team is indebted to Miguel Benzan who was recognized by Coach Joseph Walsh as an outstanding performer and also to Bob Maccini most valuable performer of the 1986 season. Varsity Golf as both a Fall and Spring sport received outstand- ing play in the Massachusetts Collegiate Golf Championships and the New England Intercollegiate Golf Championships from Jim Constantino and Most Valuable Player Steve Jack- son. The Women ' s Varsity Tennis Team under the direction of first year coach Richard Levenson was pleased with the perfor- mance of Rookie of the Year, Jonalyn Agri, Senior Paula Fran- zese and the multi talented Most Valuable Player Donna Gari- boldi. The Soccer likewise was under the direction of a first year coach, Brendan Considine from Dublin, Ireland. The con- tributions of seniors Vin Magenzini, Tunde Mobolade, Mike Ozulumba, Kemil Shallop, Mark Terzano, and Jim Santaniello provided leadership and direction. As this sport is only in it ' s third year of competition as a varsity team those seniors were indeed the foundation blocks for the successful seasons antici- pated for this program. The Winter sport season brought forth a new personality to the athletic office that being Doreen M. Matta. She was the co- coach along with Joseph Walsh of the women ' s Varsity Basket- ball program. Both of these Coaches were exceptionally pleased with the efforts of the young women on this teammost especially Outstanding Achievement Award winner Donna Gariboldi and Most Valuable Player Ellen Crotty who estab- lished a single season womens scoring record at the University in a 45 point performance against Emerson College. This effort won Ellen the ECAC Player of the Week and aided her in becoming one of the top scorers nationally in Division III Women ' s Basketball. Men ' s Varsity Basketball travelled throughout New England and was thankful for the spirited play of senior co-captain Jim Ryan as well as senior new-comer George Floros. The play throughout the year of Mike Slattery was a recognized high- light by both opponents and teammates as Mike averaged 19 points per game. Varsity Ice Hockey also saw a new leader at the helm that being Peter Sagesse who had but one senior on this team, but that senior had an outstanding season and the University was proud that Michael Hamilton was able to provide leadership and skill throughout this transition season. The Spring season was not kind to the University ' s sport pro- gram from a weather standpoint with cloudy and rainy skies being the norm throughout the entire month of April. Howev- er, the Men ' s Varsity Tennis team had a ray of sunshine from the play Marc Hurwitz who proved himself to be an outstand- ing performer in New England Division III Tennis. Women ' s Varsity Softball was pleased with the addition of Stephanie Carafotes a first year player as a senior to the teams pitching staff as well as the expected contributions from the aforementioned Donna Gariboldi. Varsity Baseball suffered the most from the inclement weather having to schedule and reschedule throughout the month of April and for the first time in four seasons was not selected for post season tournament play. Never-the-less the play of sen- iors Kevin Bennett, Chip Forrest, Dan Duffy, Joe Saldano, Jim Ryan, and All New England All-Star Mike Turilli made Coach Joe Walsh ' s season a memorable one. The contributions of the University ' s cheerleaders will not be unrecognized and this department salutes them for their support. The Annual Athle- tic Recognition Evening witnessed the presentation of a De- partmental Recognition Award to Donna Gariboldi, the Charles Melanson Unsung Hero Award to Kevin Bennett and the Alumni Charles Law Outstanding Student-Athlete Award to Ellen Crotty. 56 SPORTS SsS COUNTRY Women ' s Basketball Men ' s Baseball 0 1 58 SPORTS SPORTS 59 64 SPORTS 66 Clubs THANKS FOR YOUR I SUPPORT ■ • DEAN BRADLEY SUIXIVAJS D.
