Lacrosse Team Will Play Here

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The varsity lacrosse team should be in for "quite a rugged game" this afternoon when it faces a bruising, if not exceptionally talented, Holy Cross squad on the Business School field at 3 p.m., but Coach Bruce Munro expects his men to come out on top.

Actually, Holy Cross is somewhat of an unknown quantity, since the last time the Crimson met the Crusaders was in a scrimmage a year ago. The result of that unofficial encounter was a narrow victory for the varsity.

Dick MacKinnon will be at his usual spot guarding the goal but the ranks of the defensemen in front of him will be somewhat depleted by injury. In addition to Bob Fallon who suffered a serious eye injury. Dan Leary will be out for the next few games with an ankle sprain. Starting at defense wil probably be Captain Jim Herscot, John Baldwin, and Bob Shaunessy.

The first string midfielders will be Dick Parks, Dave Birch, and Karl Bjork, with Manuel Cabral, John Gould, and Jerry Cotter ready to take over when the starters tire. The attackmen will be Dub Mallonee, Jerry Pyle, and either Fran Loewald or Nick Lamont.

The Freshman lacrosse team will probably find the effects of only one week's practice insurmountable today when it faces a solid Deeerfield ten at Deerfield.
