Mighty Proud!
Aggie Keglers Impressive Record
" We're mighty proud ol
our girls," is the way Dr.
Charles Laffin, Jr., President
of State University at
Farmingdale, summed up the
impressive championships,
the New York State and South
Eastern Region Athletic Association
for Junior Colleges'
bowling crowns, captured by
the Long Island Aggies keglers
the past Saturday.
Coach Sofia Ellsworth, a
resident of Farmingdale,
was also mighty proud of her
charges and rightfully so.
For in capturing the coveted
honors, the Green and White
representatives turned back
the challenges of 11 other
colleges in amassing a winning
total of 2208 pins for
three games. Queensboro
was runner- up with 2173, then
came Nassau with 2166.
For the Aggies, the top
performer was Miss Donna
Sciales who had a high
score of 190 and the State
high series of 525. Other
members of the victorious
squad included Rochelle Res-ervato,
Mayra Torres, Barbara
Sturz, Wendy Surkis
and Rose Mary Matice. The
championships were made
sweeter by the fact that
Farmingdale turned back
the only teams to beat it
during the regular season,
Nassau and Queensborough.
Much activity looms for
the Aggies in the competitive
picture in the next few
days. Coach George Matola's
basketball team will host
Dutchess C. C. of Poughkeep-sie
on Saturday, then will
tackle Manhattan CC, at
Manhattan on Monday. The
Aggies are looking forward
to the Christmas tournament,
December 27- 28, with
Essex, Cobleskill, and Ulster
C. C, the other members
of the holiday competition
at Kingston, N. Y. Ma-tola
is impressed with the
Green and White's performances
thus far but still is
anxious to uncover more reserve
strength from the
bench.
For the Aggies' wrestlers,
Coach Hartman's charges
also will tackle Dutchess on
Saturday at home starting at
2 p. m. He has lined up his
varsity team with the following:
Paul Terembes or
George Dlugolonski, 123-
pound class; Carlos Toro or
Lee Isabell, 130; Jim Vio-lante,
137; Steve Taddeo,
145; Ed DePace, 152; Al
Petermann, 160; Ray Marshall
or Wayne Hoffman,
167; Walt Searing, 177; and
Jerry Quist or Gary Ches-bro,
heavyweights. The grap-plers
need more strength in
the lightweight classes, says
Hartman, the first Easterner
to be named President of
the National Junior College
Wrestling Coaches' Association.
The bowling array, under
Coach Harry Schwarze, with
five victories and two reverses,
is prepared for the
final position week of play
at Nassau C. C. on Saturday.
Nassau and Queensborough,
only keglers to beat the Aggies,
and Farmingdale are
other contenders for the Region
XV crown.
The unofficial ice hockey
squad skates against St.
Francis Saturday at Can-tiague
Park and the women's
basketball team, led by
Coach Chris Marasa, launched
its season against Suffolk
two days ago, and is now
marking time until the return
to school when Manhattan
C. C. visits Farming-dale,
January 9, in the second
clash of a seven- game schedule.
The massive recreational
intramural program with
more than 1000 students and
faculty competing in a dozen
events is moving in high
gear with Recreation Supervision
Seniors out in front
with Faculty and Recreation
Freshmen right behind.
Qliftstrrios * Cheer
Joy and peace he
with you during
this Yule season.
