The diamond nine had a short but hard schedule to play. They opened with Navy on April 19 and closed with Mt. St. Mary's on June 3. In the interim, they engaged Pennsylvania Military College. Penn State, University of Maryland. Mt. St. Mary's, and had a night game with George Washington University in Washington, D. C. Also, practice games were played with the Baltimore Firemen and other aggregations Coach "Molly" Twigg, former Western Maryland star pitcher, had a wealth of material from which to select his nine, but it appeared that he placed his dependence on the following men, though they could be replaced at a moment's notice: Captain Kopp, catcher; Shilling, pitcher; Hurley, first base; Willis, second base; Ransom or Cumber- land, short-stop: Shepherd, third base; and Doughty, Diksa, Lipsky, Tcllenger, and Fowble shared the outfield duties. The replacements who filled in when the necessity arose were Leitch, who played either at short-step or third base, plus Keyser and Moore who played in the outfield The pitchers who helped Shilling in shouldering that burden were Kimmey, Martin, Junkin, and Wright. Those Freshmen who participated in the games and showed promise were Cumberland, Wade, Pontecorvo, Fowble, Draper, and Norris Graduation took Captain Kopp. Martin, Junkin, Leitch, and Doughty whose places will be hard to fill. But with the promising Freshmen who will join varsity ranks, in addition to those who remain, Coach Twigg should be able to knit together a combina- tion which will give a splendid account of itself during the season of '34.
