Disorbio last coached the Bulldogs in 1973. The new (old) Bulldog mentor said he will return to the basics, stressing fundamentals and pride. It was obvious we needed to make some changes. I realize it will take time. We have a long way to go, Disorbio said. Encouraging the pa- of good athletes who otherwise might not have played baseball because of the programs failures is one of Disorbios goals, rticipation he said. Disorbio also is looking into the possible development of a regulation-size- d dia- mond at St. Anns elementary. A complex for younger players is being constructed there. He also hopes to promote the youth feeder program. Disorbio, who is also Judges athletic direc- tor, coached the Bulldog baseball team in the late 60s and early 1970s after coaching the University of Utah freshman team.
