VARSITY TENNIS 1950 RINITY'S netmen had looked forward to a successful season and were not disappointed in this respect. Under the excellent coaching of Ken Seixas and our undefeated number one man, Mike Debany, the team won six out of eight matches. Not only the stellar playing of Debany, but also good depth and aggressiveness pulled the racketeers through many a tight match to turn in one of the best records of recent years. jim Fixx and Roger La Viale held down second and third singles positions, with Anton Moro, Chris Santa Cruz, and Pete Fulton filling the remaining roles. Lack of practice was obvious as the Blue and Gold lost to Poly Prep 645. Hackley, Riverdale, and Stonybrook were all subdued by the booming rackets of the netmen. Victory was eked out at Riverdale by a 3-2 margin. La Viale in a two-hour match defeated Riverdale's third man to tie the score at 2-25 Debany and Moro then clinched the victory by winning their doubles match. After losing to Horace Mann, the team bounced back to end their season by defeating Adelphi, St. Paul's, and Trinity-Pawling with wide margins. The high point of the season for Trinity occurred when Mike Debany brought home the victor's cup from the A. A. P. S. Tennis Tournament. Mike, seeded first, defeated Horace Mann's second seeded Dick Raskind in the finals. Pete Fulton, Anton Moro, and Roger La- Viale, also representing Trinity in the tournament, were defeated in the second round. 45

VARSITY BASEBALL 1950 I N f it ll 6 YI ,5- ITH a potentially good team, but hampered by inclement weather and lack of practice, the Varsity Baseball Team ended its season with a favorable 8-4 record. Opening the campaign with three straight league victories over Adelphi, Poly Prep, and Stony Brook, the squad was finally downed by Pingry, 8-5, and Horace Mann, 1-0, on an unearned run. Following these two setbacks the Blue and Gold jumped back to the winning column with victories over Riverdale, Englewood, St. Paul's, Trinity- Pawling, and Horace Mann. Upsets at the bats of St. Paul's and Stony Brook eliminated the team from placing in the Ivy League. Bill Kohl was the outstanding player on the squad. He led the team in batting with a .333 average, and was the leading pitcher with four wins and one setback. Bob Bean southpawed his way to the other four victories, but lost two games. Tom White picked up the other loss at Pingry. Lou Magelaner, a fine fielding first baseman, was the second leading hitter at .29O. Bruce johnson and Don Morris combined their talents at second base and shortstop respectively, to pull off some flashy double plays. johnny Watson rounded out the Blue and Gold infield at third base, while Gabby Avram caught from his position behind the plate. Patroling the outer regions were Tommy White in left field, Charlie Sheldon in center, and either Kohl or Bean in right, depending on the pitcher for the day. 46
