240 Frosh Stors Compete With NCAA Veterons Working with one of the finest gymnastic teams in Gaucho history,Coach Art Aldritt produced such notable talents as Freshmen NCAA competitors Brian Kolb and Randy lVlolina, both with averages of 8.5 plus. In addition to these fine performers, veteran gymnasts Ken Wagner, Jeff Rosen, and team captain Bob Harris returned this year. Jeff Leach, the team's all-around man, performed well on the parallel bars despite a mid-season sprained ankle. The Gaucho gymnasts faced one of their toughest seasons, as demonstrated by one triangular meet which resulted in each team's final score placing amazingly within 42 points of the other. Despite the loss of senior greats, enough exceptional team members will re- main to uphold a high degree of excellence on the squad. Senior Ken Wagner demonstrates one of his specialties the difficult inverted iron cross, on the rings.
