Cali-fornia. Local fans will have an opportunity oppor-tunity to see the Broncos in ac- j tion "in their first game Satur- j day and will further pet a taste, of what to expect this season the following Saturday whin they meet an always strong lompton College five of Complon, Calif, at the Memorial Fieldhouse. Returning Lettermen Five returning lettermen from last year's squad will pace the' attack this year. Petty indicated. John Wood," outstanding athlete, a four letterman of last year and a stalwart of the basketball squad will be on hand again this year in the guard spot. Other returning re-turning lettermen include Keith Cooley, a jump shot artist who saw action in every game last year; Hay Robinson, a speed merchant who plays in the forward for-ward position, and Douglas Stoker, Sto-ker, center, who gradually saw more and more action last year after a late start. Don Ray Moiling, Moil-ing, another Cedar Citv lad, will be back as a guard. Wood hails from Murray, Cooley from Cedar City. Robinson from Hinckley, and Stoker- from Panguitch. The 11 new squad members are as follows: Bob Davis, Piute; Steve Rozelle, Hurricane; Carl Winfield, Delta; Garry Jenkins, Cyprus; Gary Evans, Tooele; Dick Sylvester, Marysvale; Donald Klov'd. Delta; Dale Neilson. North Cache; Ted Atherley, Salt Lake City; Jerry Bertleson, Marysvale, and Ted Chidester, Panguitch. Promising Player One of the most promising of the new men is Neilson, according accord-ing to Petty. A transfer from the Utah State Agricultural College at Logan, Neilson has finest on the floor, is a good ball handler and a potentially strong scorer. Atherley, a rugged individual under un-der tlx basket with a hook shot with either hand, will be a valuable val-uable asset to the team. Not only has Tetty's team height 1 bqt it has speed as well. Win-field, Win-field, as many local fans will remember when Cedar and Delta met last year, is a capable shot i from outside and a good ball I handler. Garry Jenkins, Gary i Evans and Bob Davis are all comparatively small but add speed and a lot of hustle to the well rounded squad. Petty has been plagued with a couple of injuries already this season. Sylvester has sustained a rather severe ankle sprain and Wood has been out of the practice prac-tice lineup this week with the flu. Rozelle, a lad of Hurricane fame, will bolster the team this year. He is a capable shot, an 'outstanding rebound artist and ;is a capable passer from the "key hole" position. |
