soccer. But the Teachers, probably a little more experienced than the Green and Gold. won the game 4-3 with a last minute drive. Suffering a let-down from a series of hard contests and badly jolted by an accident enroure, the Terror booters next met the Cadets at West Point. Sluggish play on a soggy field kept Western Maryland on the defense after an early score. Only a determined last minute attack averted a defeat. Two extra periods, played in fog and approaching darkness failed to break the 2-2 tie. At College Park, University of Maryland bowed to the Terrors 3-1. The Green and Gold then went after the scalp of the strong Johns Hopkins bcoters. Captained by Janna Randle, 1934 Terror captain, Hopkins put up a stubborn fight but it finally succumbed to a 2-1 defeat. Salisbury Teachers College was unable to stop the Terror onslaught in the final game of the season. and took the short end of a 6-2 score. There can be nothing but praise for the accomplishments of the soccer squad. A large amount of that praise goes to Coach Grimm who voluntarily assumed the position of coach in addition to his studies at the college. Coach Grimm worked long and hard with the team through- out the season. The winning of the state title was only a just compensa- c- // tion for those efforts. Captain Wayne Strasbaugh and John Elseroad, voted by his fellows dlate GhampJ. the most valuable man on the squad. also deserve considerable credit V both for their skill as players and for the splendid examples of determina- tion and spirit which they set.
