University of San Francisco Athletics

This year, the USF Frosh baseball team should prove to be one of the finest that the school has ever produced. It is a well-balanced squad under the able direction of head coach Phil Vukicevich. There are many former high school stars on the team including two who were chosen on the All-Northern California squad last year. The two are, Ray Gale and Mike Green.

Gale is a shortstop from Palo Alto and should go on to become one of the finest glove men USF has ever produced. Mike Green is a pitcher who has already shown unusual maturity on the mound, as well as at the plate.

Frank Burch is another pitcher that USF can look forward to seeing in a varsity uniform for the next three years. Frank has fine poise and speed capable of overpowering almost any batter. Frank Ubhaus, Jim Beasley, Les Franco, and Pat Galloway are just a few of the remaining players on the team who should see a lot of varsity action in the future.

For the first time in recent years, the baseball outlook on the Hilltop is bright. With this team, it appears that US has insured itself a powerful position in Bay Area baseball circles for next few years (TheDon).
