Van Kampen, C Walles J Joransen McCarrell D Hanchett J R Carlson, Coach Nyquist. Back row, Manager Crane, With an overall record of nine wins and five de- feats for a .643 average and a league record of five win and five losses, the team did not have as much trouble with the cold weather losses this year as they have had in previous years. They had a good number of hitters this year with nine fellows batting over .200. Mc- Carrel was the leading hitter of the team in league play having a batting average of .385 and Gardziella was right behind him with a .346. Hanchett and Geurkink were also above .300. The pitching was good for there was depth in the string of pitchers. Hultgren had the best record with four wins to one defeat. Carlson had a record of four wins and six defeats. lt is in- teresting to note that the team did not do ex- ceptionally well in the league but they won all five games they played outside of the league against supposedly better teams. ln the first three conference games we beat only North Park and that was by one run. We then won two non-conference games and league Glen- wood. The Warriors then suffered two defeats at the hands of Luther Walther and Luther South. At this point we really got hot and won five in a row, beating Parker, Latin, Batavia, Oswego, and Christian. We ended the year losing the last game but all in all the baseball team showed a great improvement. ' Sn - -sry 2:5
