The 1964 Freshman Basketball Team at USF lacked the abundant talent and depth of the previous years squad. Nevertheless, what they lacked in height and natural ability they made up for with hustle and desire. One member of this year's team, however, seems destined for stardom. He is Larry Blum. Larry broke the Frosh scoring records held by Bill Russell and Ollie Johnson as he finished the year with a 25,7 scoring average. He should be a definite contender for a starting spot on next year's varsity team.

Joe Gill had a fine season at the forward post. He was the second leading scorer on the team and gave the Dons a good effort on the boards despite a height disadvantage. Henry Berry and Jim Sheehan both rebounded well and played solid defensive games. Skip Schafer, Bill Nolan, Bob Miller and Gerry Pelletier all saw considerable action for the club (TheDon).
