SPRING SPORTS The 1979 spring was the most successful ever for Delaware's two main warm-weather sports, base- ball and lacrosse. Coach Bob Hannah's Blue Hen sluggers came within one game of qualifying for the College World Series, but were eliminated by Arkansas 4-3. On the year, the Hens finished 38.-16, winning the ECC Championship along the way with a shocking victory over Temple, highlighted by catcher Herb Orensky's sixth-inning grand slam. For the Delaware lacrosse team, it was a season that pushed the program into the big-time. Roockie coach Bob Shillinglaw guided his laxmen to a 13-2 record, the only losses being to tough Washington E Lee 15-10 in Virginia over spring break, and in the season finale at home 21-15 against the mighty Maryland Terrapins, who went on to the national championship game only to lose to Johns Hopkins. Victories came over the likes of UMBC, Towson State, University of Baltimore, Princeton, Washing- ton College, and the Air Force Academy. The Hens notched an- other ECC Championship, and Shillinglaw came to describe his team as the Cardiac Kids for their habit of winning each game by only a goal or two. Starring for the Hens was senior midfielder John MeCloskey, the team's leading scorer. Rookie talent Moses Marone scored 29 goals. The season finale against Mary- land drew 2500 people, the largest crowd to ever attend a lacrosse game on the Delaware campus. The Hens finished 15th in the Division lacrosse poll.
