3 im for Play-offs After being victimized by Poly, 2-1, in the opener, the Warriors swept to five straight victories before losing a crucial two-day series to Lincoln, 2-1 and 3-1. Thus on April 5 the diamondmen of Wilson held a 5-3 record in double-round robin play. With the great pitching of Jerry Schnell, Don Hol- voet and Bob Bradley, and the outstanding hitting of Larry Haren, Fred Rogers, Rich Washington, Joe Lopes, and Louis Neal, the Warriors could still look forward to the City Play-offs. There they would hope to accomp- lish in 1968 what they failed to achieve in 1966 when they won the regular season title but lost the over-all title to Sacred Heart. Coach Pete Dalton was confident that his team would win the play- offs and bring still another title home to Woodrow Wilson. Larry Haren flips a quick put-out. Mack Commer aims and fires. for Page 85

The Junior Varsity starred the 1968 season with three straight victories. They shocked O'Connell twice, 9-3 and 15-2, then they outslugged Mission 9-7, in a thrilling practice game. In a game against Mills the Warriors were on the short end of a 2-1 score when the game was called because of rain. Providing the punch for the J. V. 's were Gerald Rankin, Charles Lewis, Larry Terry, Pone Uperesa, Dirk Tolson, Willie Bowman, and Gary Haren. Good pitching came from Frank Harper and Gerald Barker.
