With the loss of only five players to graduation, and the return of nine veterans, the Don baseball, team proved to be a substantial threat this season. Joe Gualco headed the pitching staff, backed up by returning Dave Holquin and Roger Strack, Frank McGee, Rich Hinkle, Ron Dinslage, and Mike Delagnes up from the Frosh team. First baseman Bob Pindroh led the infield with Rick Kuhta on second, Biff Barnes at short-stop, and Mike Delagnes at third. Dan Quinn guarded home plate. Phil Wanlin put down his football helmet to work in the outfield with Nick Willard and Joe Gill.

Head Coach Dan Benedetti moved up from Frosh coach to take over the reins from George McGlynn (TheDon).
