BASEBALL Under the firm guiding hand of Coach Ekblorn, the aid of Dave Lindberg’s tireless arm, and with the invaluable support of the seniors, this year’s baseball team compiled the finest record in the school’s history, finishing with eleven wins and two losses in league play, and twelve wins and three losses over all. The team showed it was destined for further honors than the winning of the league crown when it twice de- feated Millbury and Westboro, the two closest rivals for the championship. The culmination of the year’s efforts came when the team was invited to compete in District Three. The team’s first game was against Milford. Bob Roselund pitched the entire game and allowed only one earned run which was supplemented by two un- earned runs, which gave Milford a three to two victory.
