Completing a successful 1968 season, the Mitchell baseball team finished second in S.C.L. competition. Starting the season slowly, the Marauders lost several games by one run. As the season progressed, the team showed great improvement by winning five of their last six games, and they also defeated league titlist Wasson. Coach Bob Gill expressed feelings that the 1969 team will be made up primarily of juniors. With re- turning lettermen Ron Haines, Don Struck, Stew Mc- Pherson, Don Andrews, and Ray Zaremba, he expects this year's team to be in title contention. 1968 Marauder Season Results Mitchell Opponent 3 .... ...Thomas Jefferson... . . . . .8 O .... ...Palmer ..,...,... ....1 2 .... ...Pueblo South. ..... . . . .3 6 .... ...Cheyenne Mountain. . . . . . .2 6 .... . .Pueblo East ...... . ....O 5 .... ...Trinidad ...... . . , .1 1 ..,. ...Wasson ......., ....2 7 ,... . . .Pueblo Central .... . , . .2 4 .... ...Aurora Hinkley ..... ....1 8 .... ...Pueblo Centennial .... ....1 1 .... ...Littleton .......... . . . .2 O .... ...Palmer ....... ....3 5 .... ...PuebloSouth.... ....2 5 .... ...PuebloEast... ....1 8 .... ...Trinidad ..... ....3 5 ,... ...Wasson ........ ....2 9 .... . . .Pueblo Central .... . . .10 2 .... . . .Pueblo Centennial. . . .. . .O
