by June Quirk

The Toreros this year have ended with a fourteen victory to an eleven loss averag e. Four of the starters this year were returnees from the '66 NCAA Regional Playoff's. They have proven that the Toreros are on the way to something hig with the outstanding coaching of Phil Woolpert. The spirit was strong even though a few members of the team suffered injuries before or at the beginning of the season. Alan Fay, (6-5, 210 lb .) forward, was the team captain. He finished the year with great rebounding and accurate shots in the court. Fay will leave the Toreros ranking tenth among the all-time scores atU.S.D. His great team work and spirit will be a loss to the Toreros. Rick Cabrera, (6-3, 1751b.) forward, ranked in the highest esteem in field goals and pointage with Ted Fields at a close second. Cabrera has shown great team spirit and has bee n one of the great team boosters to all the players. The potential for his final year looks good. Ted Fields, (6-2, 1851b.) gua rd and forward, Cabrera's comrade on the court, has shown outstanding ability in field action and shooting.

Bill Sheridan, (6-0, 1801b.) guard, has finished his second season as a starter for the Toreros. He has shown outstanding accuracy in shooting and strong defensive

action this y ear. He is th e "speedee" on the court. His potential for next y ear is hi gh and it looks good for the whole team. Durel Carpenter, (6-5, 2151b.) c enter, was a transfer from Stanford and Mt. San Antonio J.C. Carpenter has been one of the most outstanding center's in U.S.D. history. He was a good asset to the Toreros this season.

Gus Magee, (6-6, 2151b.) center, was a transfer from the

Air Fo rce. He has shown team power and spirit and has been the uplift to both the team and the fans, for when things weren't looking too good one could always see Gus smiling with thumbs up for victory. Jim Wilke, (6-6, 1851b.) forward and center, has pro ven to have great potential in vars ity action as all hav e seen.
