With 1948-49 athletics a closed
hook, Bluffton college statisticians
this week were tallying up results
of the various team records of the
past year.
Here are the results:
Basketball
B. C. eagers pulled an even 33%
per cent of games over into the
win column during the 48-49 sea
son, as they racked up 1Q15 points
to their opponents 1083, in an 18
game series.
As the Beavers stepped to the
free throw stripe, they dusted 63%
of their tries, against the opposi
tion’s 58%. The tally on the shots
from the field, gave the locals the.
short end of the count.
Five losses for the locals, came in
games whose aggregate score differ
ences netted only 11 points, or less
than three points per game, as the
spectators were kept guessing until
the final horn.
Martin Stahl and Roger Howe
hung up their uniforms for the last
time, as members of the Varsity
squad, and leave two hard to fill
berths for the next year’s crew.
Both Martin and Rog have accepted
teaching and coaching positions in

Triplett’s victory over Ottoville
Tuesday night was marked by a
three-run uprising which gave the
locals a 5 to 4 victory, in a contest
that almost had been lost because of
early-inning errors.
Ottoville had scored one run in
the first inning on a walk and a
double, and added three more in
the third on one hit which followed
three errors.
Triplett broke the scoring ice in
the fifth when K. Moser walked, ad­

in turn scored on successive singles
by Herman and Lowry.
Trailing by two runs going into

Lowry walked and tallied on Wilch’s
double.

season.
With the close of the season, a
trio of Beaver players ended a
playing spree of more than eleven
years, which began when Rog Howe,
Rich and Russ Gratz were hitting
the board for Bluffton High school.
Rich and Russ will be playing
aj^ainst Rog next year when he
comes back with the Alumni for
the big event.
Rich Gratz and Dale Dickey led
the point parade for the locals by
piling up 235 and 164 points re
spectively, or better than a third
of the crew's total points.
Baseball
The Beavers, taking the field for
the opening day with seven letter
men, nevertheless were able to cop
only two out of ten decisions fiom
their opponents.
Erroritis plagued the Beavers
this season. Averaging 4.6 per
game, the Burckymen saw many
leads wiped out by fumbles afield.
The Beavers rang up 52 runs on 76
hits, while their opponents crossed
the platter 85 times on 99 safe
blows.
Leichty cracked out 18 base hits
in 31 trips to the plate, for a .580
batting average, to lead the Beav
ers. Fred also saw first line pitch
ing duty, and racked up both Bluff
ton victories.

The Beaver tennis squad found
the elements of Mother Nature play
ing against them this season. The
Beavers completed three matches,
losing two and winning one. To
ledo University and Albion College,
Albion, Michigan, won the courts
from Bluffton. The Beavers in turn
defeated Wilmington College. All
return matches were rained out.
Dale Dickey and Roger Howe
played the same consistent type of
good tennis they have always shown.
