Flanking Shean in the outfield will be two Varsity newcomers, Rud Hoye in right and Jo-Jo Soltz in left. Both are rated as heavy hitters with Soltz batting clean-up and Hoye sixth. While Soltz is an average fielder, Hoye has been mediocre to date and will have difficulty filling the shoes of Jim Sullivan...
Lead off man is the portside hitter, Bob Gannett, who will also take his station in centerfield. Next will come shortstop Art Johns and then Captain Lupien.

Sixth on the order is the veteran and second sacker, Dave Shean, with third baseman Dick Grondahl, backstop Paul Doyle, and sophomore right fielder Rud Hoye filling out the list.

Coach Doneghy's men collected 12 base blows, including a homer by Jo-Jo Soltz and a triple by Bob Regan...
