The freshman track team has been paced this year by two exceptional men: Aggrey Awori who has tied the College record in the 60-yd. hurdles and captain Art Croasdale, who holds the freshman record in the shot put and is "the most outstanding freshman shot putter we've ever had," according to coach Ed Stowell.

"This team as a whole has more potential for the varsity than any team in the past four or five years," continued Stowell. However, potential is the key word with this squad. While it sports an impressive 7-1 record (its only loss coming against Yale), Stowell feels that no one has reached the peak of his ability.

And while this particular edition doesn't boast many more outstanding individuals than in past years, it has a good deal more depth, especially in the middle-distance and field events, generally weak varsity areas.

Wrestling Underachieves

Potential is also the strong point of the wrestling team. While they have put together a 6-2 season, this record is not really indicative of their strength. Four of their original starters left school, giving coach John Lee problems right from the start. Great depth again has proved to be the saving factor in most meets. But, for the Princeton meet (one of their two losses), they were forced to forfeit two crucial matches, which determined the outcome of the meet.

The real test for the wrestlers comes in a week and a half in the Eastern Collegiate competition at West Point. John Daniels at 137, Ben Brooks at 177, and John Mamaha at 147 should all make creditable showings.

Slightly down the ladder of success comes the basketball team with a 7-5 season. But even with a crippling lack of height, they managed to do better than pre-season predictions said they would.

In their last game of the year, Yale defeated the freshmen 80 to 62. It was the team's first long trip and their second game in two days. They stayed with the Elis for three quarters, but the strain took its toll in the fourth as Yale pulled away.

As for fencing, the freshman team proved once again that fencing is decidedly not a traditionally strong sport here. Salvaging one victory over M.I.T. from their five-match schedule, they evidenced the weakness which plagues every Harvard fencing team: inexperience.
