4 Selliors 'shafted.';
deltied Senlor Week
Appealing to
:Judicial
Board
by
S.J. RICHARD
Editor
Four seniors are appealing punishment laid upon them ·by housing ofa
ficials on the grounds of faulty proced1,1re.
• ·.·
The Student Judicial Board agreed to heai the appeal Tuesday night.
As ofWednesday morning, DanielNewcombe, Robert Bowen, Michael
Mannebach arid Zelestei Cay, residents of Townhouse B-5, have.been
banned from all Senior Week activities except the Senior Formal,Bac- .•
calaureate. and· Graduation itself; they have also lost their housing,
privileges for Senior Week.
Originally, the group was also appealing on grounds of prejudicial treat-
ment by housing officials.
•
They were banned on Thursday, April 22 after meeting with John
Padovani, assistant housing director, and Beth Ruppenthai, resident direc~
tor for the North end residence,area, concerning an umegistered party
whic4 security broke up at approximately 12:20 a.m. on Sunday, April •
. 18, in B-5.
•
•
"I'm personally upset since we were not treated as equally.as in other
cases,'' Cay, a social work major from Preston Hollow, N.Y., said.
"We're upstanding students who made a mistake for the first time. We.
were shafted."
.
.
. .·.
. .
It was the first time any of the four were disciplined this year.
The party featured a live band, "WoodPecker," which Bowen is a·
member of. Security estimated there were 20
to
30 people in attendance;
however, the only people at the party identified were five members of
the townhouse who were present.

no

non-existent, and .there was no

But I really miss the innocence
and fun of going to a movie. At
most, I remember a movie costing
$5, and a large soda was. $1.75.
Gangs did not have shootouts, peo-
ple were quiet, and a family could
actually go to a decent movie
together.,. and like it. Those were
the salad days of movies- fantastic
special effects, great action movies,
"The Brat Pack,''
.
and John
Hughes, who made movies about
teenagers for teenagers. I even miss
the "sexploitation" flicks that you
would rent with friends. Even the
movies themselves had that certain
look, a look I cannot describe,
which added to the feel. It was a
great time to be a kid in love with
movies.
But compare that with today's
movies and you'll find a few ma-
jor differences. Today's movies are
either big-budget, more-blood-
than- plot movies or low-budget,
feel-good tear-jerkers. A studio is
not willing to risk millions for a
movie they do not "feel" will do
well, unlike the '80s, unless the
price is right (usually under $30
million). And they would be more
than happy to throw out a movie
with big stars, a lot of sex and ac-
tion, a bad script, but a huge
budget. Those type of mov~es cost
more, but that can be balariced by

Rodney King verdict
by
CHRIS CONTI
Staff Writer
Some sighs of relief were expressed last Saturdav ~~ming when the
verdict was read concerning the four Los Angeles police officers who
beat Rodney King, two years ago.
Police officers Stacey Koon and Lawrence Powell were found guilty,
while Theodore Briseno and Timothy Wind were found not guilty.
The King beating and the first trial set off violence that had built up
in the streets of Los Angeles.
The conviction appeared to satisfy many people and temporarily calmed
violence that erupted in many cities throughout the United States. Some
Marist College students offered their opinions of the verdict.

four
ears of circumstance
by
PETER DONALDSON
'":. Staff Writer
•
-Four years at Marist.
Graduating seniors will be tak-
ing more than a diploma and
memories of a party at Townhouse-
B-5_ home with them when they
take a final ·ride down Route 9.
«Out of all thelate night antics
that went on, there isn't one that
sticks ou_t in my mind," said Tony
Uanino, a business major from
South Daytona, Florida. "They
were all pretty crazy."
Nights of alcohol have provided -
_ many war-stories
for- Marist
student1> to share with pride.
• "There was that time my friends
and I snuck beers past our RA in
our ski jackets," recalls Tanya
Gaiten, _ a political science major
from Queens, NY. "We had five
or six beers in each sleeve."
- Seniors have a plethora of
memories, from the sublime to the
ridiculous, all tindered with a
Marist flair'.

"It
was snowing and we saw a
group tour being led to Lowell
Thomas," he said. "We took off
everything except our underwear
and our hats and we just ran
around the parking lot saying 'Hi'
to the tour-goers."
Thomas O'Conner remembers
being professionally dressed up as
a woman for Halloween.
"I
had to wear my Recboks, but
everything else was legitimate," he
said.
"I
had to use fake stuff for
the breasts though."
O'Conner said that he was ob-
noxious as a girl, and some of his
friends said that he looked pretty
ugly.
"At Skinner's, l got hit on by
this guy and his girlfriend," he
said.
He managed to escape the
obscene fondling of a man at Skin-
ner's only to be hit on by an old
woman, at another bar, later that
night.
O'Conner said he survived the
experience unscathed and his fake
cleavage was undamaged.
Andrea Preziotti, the senior class
president, remembers some not-so
fond memories among a patchwork
of fond ones.
"Freshman year, we had

She said that most of them were

Kris Singer, an English major,
said that she and some friends got
caught by security while studying
on the roof of Leo Hall.
"It
was stupid,'.' she said.

More ~1kely
t~an not, John Padovani, assistant housing director, and Beth Ruppen-
thal, resident director for the North End, will deny the charges of prejudice and faulty
procedure.
.
More likely than not, we would find them guilty of those exact charges.
See, it's easy.
•
It's hard to tell what is more disturbing, this common sense thing or some of the com-
ments supposedly made by Padovani to these seniors.
•
Granted, it's their word against his that he made these statements but we'll believe
them more likely than not.
'
.
Mannebach says Padovani said to him he found it
nearly
impossible to believe anyone
could get more than 60 Marist students together without alcohol being served.
He must never have attended an MCCTA production, a basketball game, afootball
game or an SPC event.
•
All those activities can easily clear 60 students in attendance-none of them provide
alcohol to students.
•
If he did make this comment, he has an ultra-poor view of Marist students. Is this
the ~ind of administrator Marist needs? Wants?
Are students so irrational and irate as to want sensible administrators who are willing
to
keep an opening mind when dealing with them?
.
Or
are
we all so incapable of eliciting behavior indicative of scholars that we need
to be made examples of left and right?
•
.
Of course, if this is true,
f,
too, will be made an example of for my remarks more

Bye-bye on-campus housing next year. Hello, Canterbury, more likely than not.
Congrats. and

This letter is in reference to last

I have no problem with the
business club, but I am outraged
about one paragraph in the article.
It was stated that AKP does
many community events, "unlike
other fraternities."
Well, Miss Diamond, if you
would have done an ounce of
research, maybe you would realize
,
that Marist College fraternities and
sororities do much to benefit the
community.

All too often the administration
at Marist goes unnoticed for doing
gqod deeds. If it was not for the ad-
ministration's willingness to ac-
commodate us in the best possible
way, the remainder of our senior
year may_have been a disaster.
We would like to thank Presi-

our resident director, Jim Raimo -
director of housing

residential
life; Steve Sansola -
assistant

of student affairs,
and
the physical

time and effort they invested in our

Though this unfortunate inci-
dent was an accident, Marist took
full responsibility for everything.

With the recent cutbacks at IBM
serving as a constant reminder of
the poor job market, seniors are
preparing to dive - head first -
into the "real world.''

a successful career, but others are
making every
·effort
possible to
avoid it.
"The only thing I can say is ·
.'help',"
Ted Houghton, a 22-year-
old
·business
major from Wells
Bridge, N.Y., said. "Real life is not
going to.be like college, Houghton
added, "Being too hungover to go
to ,vork is just not acceptable."
Many seniors agrt!ed that their
college_
lifestyle,_ whJch. they_ have
grown accu~tomed to, ,yill not get
them anywhere once they leave
Marist.
"We'll never have it this good
again," Greg Reisert, a 21-year-old
international business major from
Hewlett, N.Y., said. "The biggest
concern I ever have getting through
the crowd and getting a beer when
•
the bar is crowded," Reisert said.
Nobody said the transition from
college student to productive
worker would be easy. Still, many
stu·dents said they would love to get
hired, but the troubled economy
has them concerned.
"Truthfully, I have to Jake
whatever I can get," Lew Adams,
a 22-year-old business major from
Staten Island, N.
Y .,
said.
"It
is
scary, but things should be getting
better."
This type of limited optimism
seems to be fairly common among
soon-to-be graduates.
"It's bad out there, but there are
things going on if people look hard
enough," Yannick Lastennet, a
22-year-old political science major
from Haverstraw, N.Y., said.
"The (IBM) layoffs and other
similar things concern me, but I
don't -..iew
them as a pict,ne of my
future."
"I have an internship, and my
boss makes a lot. of money even
though he's a yourig guy: There's
definit_ely
inohey to be made. They
tell me that I've been doing a'good
job and hopefully they will hirenie
after I graduate," Prendemano
said.

"I have no idea whatthe hell I'm

!.'People
who say there are jobs out
there are wrong. My major isn't
going to do me any good because
there are hardly any jobs in com-
munications and the pay sucks even
when you find one."
For some students, graduation
represents a major road block,
rather than a new direction.
·
"I'm going back home to mom
and dad because even with a col-
lege degree I won't get any of the
jobs I want," Carolyn Holt, 23, a
public relations major from North
Attleboro, Mass, said.
The New York job market is par-
ticularly bad, according to some
students who insist that the only
way to find any openings
is
to leave
the area.
"I have no choice but to go
home for the summer, but after
that I'm getting the hell out of New
York," said Adams. "The boss at
my internship is getting me an in-
terview at an investment firm in
Vermont. The economy there isn't
great, but anything is better than
New York."

Miriam Cajuste, a 24-year-old
junior, is a native of Haiti. She and
her five siblings came to America
following their father, a in.is~
sionary, who was needed to fill'the
position as Pastor of the Church of
God in Brooklyn, NY.
"When I first came to America
everything· was an adjustment; I
was thrown into classes with
classmates who were so tall. and
who were speaking such a different
language," Cajuste said.
Two days after Cajuste arrived
in America, she

Crew- wins regatta;
State
Champ$ next
by
TED HOLMLUND
:
• Sports Editor
The men's.and women's crew team won the overall point standings
at the President's Cup Regatta, last Saturday.
The host's school's 14 points was enough to out distance the six-team·
field.
•
•
Middlebury College finished second with 12 points.
The men's and women's varsity eights both notched first places in the
2,000-meter race leading-the Red Foxes to victory.
All
races are 2,000-ineters.
-
·
,
The men's varsity eight notched its top spot with a time of five minutes,
54 seconds.
•
•
The following rowers scored the win for Marist: Pe_te Tartaglia, Mark
Fragola, Greg Fagnant, Brad Leonard, Jim Sullivan, Dan Morris, Chris
Batt, Keith Laurie and coxsain Brent Golisano.
The women's varsity eight nabbed its victory with a time of 6:23.
The following runners contributed to the triumph: Christina Vegiard,
Michell Paquette, Jen Paupini, Heather Alexander, Kristine Mingo, Katie
Cox, Patti Dube, Mary. Briker and coxsain Jen Zanetti.
Head Coach Larry Davis said this was one of the most successful all
around
regatta's
since the mid l980's because the organization was good,
the weather was nice and the team gave a solid performance.
!'Everything sort of came together," he said. "It's about as go"od
as
it gets on the Hudson River for Marist." Despite the solid effort, the
squad could have won a few more of the close races, Davis said. "We
could.have squeaked some wins in some of the varsity four events," he
said.
Marist finished second in the women's varsity four, the men's
heavyweight varsity four and the men's lightweight varsity four.
''We're just starting to peak at the right time,'' he said. "We are look-
ing for some medalists at the New York Stat_e _Championships."

The softball team, despite a SO-

has won two of
its Jast three games· in thrilling
fashion by rallying for runs i~ the

The Red Foxes split with Queens
College Tuesday, winning 3-2 and
losing 4-3. The team---also placed
fourth at the Northeast Conference
•
Tournament over the weekend,
beating Wagner 6-3 and St. Fran-
cis (Pa.) 4-3 but losing to eventual
champ Robert Morris 7-1 and Long
Island University II-I.
Game one· against Queens was
just another chapter in the com-
eback saga of t_his team.

The Foxes trailed 2-0 entering
the home half of the seventh when
they scored all three runs with one
out. First, Patty Ackermann singl-
ed and stole second. Then, Laurie
Sleight reached

.
don't give up. We always make the_
games close for them (the fans)."
Queens scored their two runs in
the second'irining off winning pit-
cher.Jen.Luker but'after that inn-
ing, the· freshman was masterful.
Luker did not walk a batter, scat-
tered;five hits and retired the side
in order· every inning after the
third.
•
"Basically,I was placing my pit-
ches better in the late innings," said
Luker. "Putting them on the out-
side corners made it toug'h, on
them.tt,
,
"It
takes an inning or two to get
used to the batters but once Jen
finds a weakness, she'll go right ut
it," said catcher Degatano. "That's
what makes her a good pitcher."
The story was just the opposite
in game two-no
_clutch
hits.
The Foxes, after already scpring
a run in the sixth, still had the bases
loaded with two outs but could not
capitalize.
Head Coach Tom Chia,·elli was
puzzled by his team's defeat.
"We only had five hits in the
game," he said. "We also had five
•
hits in the first game but we came
..
up_.with the clutch hits."
.·
Marist did not help itself, either,
by committing four

in the
game, including two in the first
when Que1:.ns

while Janine
O'Connor and Melanie Call each
added RBI singles.
The team impressed the competi-
tion at the nine-team'NEC Tour-
nament as it finished fourth only
a year after finishing last.
The most thrilling game was the
third when the Foxes rallied to steal
a win from St. Francis in the final
frame.
Degatano's game-winning RBI
single to right with two outs scorea
Stacey Haupt (pinch running for
Sleight).
"Everyone was hugging and
jumping up and down," said
Degatano.
Degatano smacked three of the
team's four hits in that game.
on a fine note by defeating Des-
mond DiSalvo of St. Francis
(N.Y.), 6-0, 6-0.
In the quarterfinals, LaSusa fell
to the number one player in the A
Division, Ricardo DeBedout of
FDU, iri a tightly-contest match,
6-4, 7:6 (7-4).
•
Harrison had mixed reactions
towards LaSusa's match.
"He was· playing good tennis,
but he seemed more happy he was
playing with the guy,'' the first-
year .head coach said.· "He felt he·
needed to hit his best shots."

McGovern, Allen was stopped in
the semis, 6-0, 6-2.
"I

said.
"I

•
Senior John Favazzo was a 6-2,
6-1 victim in the quarterfinals of
the D division, however Favazzo
was not done just yet.
In the consolation semifinals,
Favazza won by default, which
entered him into the consolation
championships.
In the final, Favazza battled with
Jason Gray of Robert Morris, but
lost 6-3, 7-6 (7-5).
In doubles, the team of junior
Chris Ilardi and freshman Heath
Pramberger defeated Pat Allen and
Richard Zook of
St.
Francis
(P.A.), 5-7, 6-3, 6-3.
The win advanced Pramberger
•
and Ilardi to the quarterfinals.
However, the team of Gustav Lind-
strom and Dan
Glover
of Mount
St. Mary's proved to be too strong
for Pramberger
and
Ilardi as they
were l<nocked off, 6-1, 6-3.
Ilardi and Pramberger also did
not
-
fare well in the consolation
semis losing 6-3, 6-2.
Despite the:setback, Pramberger
said he and his partner did a solid
job.
"We played real well," he said.
"We had a lot of dunks."

Four seniors are appealing punishment laid upon them ·by housing ofa
ficials on the grounds of faulty proced1,1re.
• ·.·
The Student Judicial Board agreed to heai the appeal Tuesday night.
As ofWednesday morning, DanielNewcombe, Robert Bowen, Michael
Mannebach arid Zelestei Cay, residents of Townhouse B-5, have.been
banned from all Senior Week activities except the Senior Formal,Bac- .•
calaureate. and· Graduation itself; they have also lost their housing,
privileges for Senior Week.
Originally, the group was also appealing on grounds of prejudicial treat-
ment by housing officials.
•
They were banned on Thursday, April 22 after meeting with John
Padovani, assistant housing director, and Beth Ruppenthai, resident direc~
tor for the North end residence,area, concerning an umegistered party
whic4 security broke up at approximately 12:20 a.m. on Sunday, April •
. 18, in B-5.
•
•
"I'm personally upset since we were not treated as equally.as in other
cases,'' Cay, a social work major from Preston Hollow, N.Y., said.
"We're upstanding students who made a mistake for the first time. We.
were shafted."
.
.
. .·.

It was the first time any of the four were disciplined this year.
The party featured a live band, "WoodPecker," which Bowen is a·
member of. Security estimated there were 20

no

non-existent, and .there was no

But I really miss the innocence
and fun of going to a movie. At
most, I remember a movie costing
$5, and a large soda was. $1.75.
Gangs did not have shootouts, peo-
ple were quiet, and a family could
actually go to a decent movie
together.,. and like it. Those were
the salad days of movies- fantastic
special effects, great action movies,
"The Brat Pack,''
.
and John
Hughes, who made movies about
teenagers for teenagers. I even miss
the "sexploitation" flicks that you
would rent with friends. Even the
movies themselves had that certain
look, a look I cannot describe,
which added to the feel. It was a
great time to be a kid in love with
movies.
But compare that with today's
movies and you'll find a few ma-
jor differences. Today's movies are
either big-budget, more-blood-
than- plot movies or low-budget,
feel-good tear-jerkers. A studio is
not willing to risk millions for a
movie they do not "feel" will do
well, unlike the '80s, unless the
price is right (usually under $30
million). And they would be more
than happy to throw out a movie
with big stars, a lot of sex and ac-
tion, a bad script, but a huge
budget. Those type of mov~es cost
more, but that can be balariced by

by
CHRIS CONTI
Staff Writer

verdict was read concerning the four Los Angeles police officers who
beat Rodney King, two years ago.

The King beating and the first trial set off violence that had built up
in the streets of Los Angeles.
The conviction appeared to satisfy many people and temporarily calmed
violence that erupted in many cities throughout the United States. Some
Marist College students offered their opinions of the verdict.

for- Marist
student1> to share with pride.
• "There was that time my friends
and I snuck beers past our RA in
our ski jackets," recalls Tanya
Gaiten, _ a political science major
from Queens, NY. "We had five
or six beers in each sleeve."
- Seniors have a plethora of
memories, from the sublime to the
ridiculous, all tindered with a
Marist flair'.

"It

Thomas O'Conner remembers

"I

"I

O'Conner said that he was ob-

ugly.
"At Skinner's, l got hit on by
this guy and his girlfriend," he
said.
He managed to escape the
obscene fondling of a man at Skin-

woman, at another bar, later that
night.
O'Conner said he survived the

cleavage was undamaged.

on the roof of Leo Hall.

More ~1kely
t~an not, John Padovani, assistant housing director, and Beth Ruppen-
thal, resident director for the North End, will deny the charges of prejudice and faulty
procedure.
.
More likely than not, we would find them guilty of those exact charges.
See, it's easy.
•
It's hard to tell what is more disturbing, this common sense thing or some of the com-
ments supposedly made by Padovani to these seniors.
•
Granted, it's their word against his that he made these statements but we'll believe
them more likely than not.
'
.
Mannebach says Padovani said to him he found it
nearly
impossible to believe anyone
could get more than 60 Marist students together without alcohol being served.
He must never have attended an MCCTA production, a basketball game, afootball
game or an SPC event.
•
All those activities can easily clear 60 students in attendance-none of them provide
alcohol to students.
•
If he did make this comment, he has an ultra-poor view of Marist students. Is this
the ~ind of administrator Marist needs? Wants?
Are students so irrational and irate as to want sensible administrators who are willing
to
keep an opening mind when dealing with them?
.
Or
are
we all so incapable of eliciting behavior indicative of scholars that we need
to be made examples of left and right?
•
.
Of course, if this is true,
f,
too, will be made an example of for my remarks more
likely than not.

This letter is in reference to last
week's article by Mary Diamond
on Alpha Kappa Psi.
I have no problem with the
business club, but I am outraged
about one paragraph in the article.
It was stated that AKP does
many community events, "unlike
other fraternities."
Well, Miss Diamond, if you
would have done an ounce of
research, maybe you would realize
,
that Marist College fraternities and
sororities do much to benefit the
community.
If I recall, Sigma Phi Epsilon
was named Community Service

All too often the administration
at Marist goes unnoticed for doing
gqod deeds. If it was not for the ad-
ministration's willingness to ac-
commodate us in the best possible
way, the remainder of our senior
year may_have been a disaster.
We would like to thank Presi-
dent Murray, Beth Ruppenthal -
our resident director, Jim Raimo -
director of housing
and
residential
life; Steve Sansola -
assistant
dean
of student affairs,
and
the physical
plant staff for their considerable
time and effort they invested in our
behalf.
Though this unfortunate inci-
dent was an accident, Marist took
full responsibility for everything.

was there to lend a hand.

With the recent cutbacks at IBM

the poor job market, seniors are
preparing to dive - head first -
into the "real world.''

a successful career, but others are
making every
·effort
possible to
avoid it.
"The only thing I can say is ·
.'help',"
Ted Houghton, a 22-year-
old
·business
major from Wells
Bridge, N.Y., said. "Real life is not
going to.be like college, Houghton
added, "Being too hungover to go
to ,vork is just not acceptable."
Many seniors agrt!ed that their
college_
lifestyle,_ whJch. they_ have
grown accu~tomed to, ,yill not get
them anywhere once they leave
Marist.
"We'll never have it this good
again," Greg Reisert, a 21-year-old
international business major from
Hewlett, N.Y., said. "The biggest
concern I ever have getting through
the crowd and getting a beer when
•
the bar is crowded," Reisert said.
Nobody said the transition from
college student to productive
worker would be easy. Still, many
stu·dents said they would love to get
hired, but the troubled economy
has them concerned.
"Truthfully, I have to Jake
whatever I can get," Lew Adams,
a 22-year-old business major from
Staten Island, N.
Y .,
said.
"It
is
scary, but things should be getting
better."
This type of limited optimism
seems to be fairly common among
soon-to-be graduates.
"It's bad out there, but there are
things going on if people look hard
enough," Yannick Lastennet, a
22-year-old political science major
from Haverstraw, N.Y., said.
"The (IBM) layoffs and other
similar things concern me, but I
don't -..iew
them as a pict,ne of my
future."
"I have an internship, and my
boss makes a lot. of money even
though he's a yourig guy: There's
definit_ely
inohey to be made. They
tell me that I've been doing a'good
job and hopefully they will hirenie
after I graduate," Prendemano
said.

!.'People
who say there are jobs out
there are wrong. My major isn't
going to do me any good because
there are hardly any jobs in com-
munications and the pay sucks even
when you find one."
For some students, graduation
represents a major road block,
rather than a new direction.
·
"I'm going back home to mom
and dad because even with a col-
lege degree I won't get any of the
jobs I want," Carolyn Holt, 23, a
public relations major from North
Attleboro, Mass, said.
The New York job market is par-
ticularly bad, according to some
students who insist that the only
way to find any openings
is
to leave
the area.
"I have no choice but to go
home for the summer, but after
that I'm getting the hell out of New
York," said Adams. "The boss at
my internship is getting me an in-
terview at an investment firm in
Vermont. The economy there isn't
great, but anything is better than
New York."

her five siblings came to America
following their father, a in.is~

God in Brooklyn, NY.
"When I first came to America
everything· was an adjustment; I
was thrown into classes with
classmates who were so tall. and
who were speaking such a different

Crew- wins regatta;

by
TED HOLMLUND
:
• Sports Editor
The men's.and women's crew team won the overall point standings
at the President's Cup Regatta, last Saturday.
The host's school's 14 points was enough to out distance the six-team·
field.
•
•
Middlebury College finished second with 12 points.
The men's and women's varsity eights both notched first places in the
2,000-meter race leading-the Red Foxes to victory.
All
races are 2,000-ineters.
-
·
,
The men's varsity eight notched its top spot with a time of five minutes,
54 seconds.
•
•
The following rowers scored the win for Marist: Pe_te Tartaglia, Mark
Fragola, Greg Fagnant, Brad Leonard, Jim Sullivan, Dan Morris, Chris
Batt, Keith Laurie and coxsain Brent Golisano.
The women's varsity eight nabbed its victory with a time of 6:23.
The following runners contributed to the triumph: Christina Vegiard,
Michell Paquette, Jen Paupini, Heather Alexander, Kristine Mingo, Katie
Cox, Patti Dube, Mary. Briker and coxsain Jen Zanetti.
Head Coach Larry Davis said this was one of the most successful all
around
regatta's
since the mid l980's because the organization was good,
the weather was nice and the team gave a solid performance.
!'Everything sort of came together," he said. "It's about as go"od
as
it gets on the Hudson River for Marist." Despite the solid effort, the
squad could have won a few more of the close races, Davis said. "We
could.have squeaked some wins in some of the varsity four events," he
said.
Marist finished second in the women's varsity four, the men's
heavyweight varsity four and the men's lightweight varsity four.
''We're just starting to peak at the right time,'' he said. "We are look-
ing for some medalists at the New York Stat_e _Championships."

Game one· against Queens was
just another chapter in the com-

"··

Queens scored their two runs in

Luker did not walk a batter, scat-
tered;five hits and retired the side

"It
takes an inning or two to get

The story was just the opposite

The Foxes, after already scpring
a run in the sixth, still had the bases
loaded with two outs but could not
capitalize.
Head Coach Tom Chia,·elli was
