The purpose of this school is twofold.

First, to provide a training broad enough to prepare boys for any Col­ lege or Scientific School. Second, to give every boy a thorough mental training with the hope of securing for him a generous and liberalizing devel­ opment, whatever his ultimate course may be.

Despite the return of only four lettermen, King Varsity Soccer enjoyed its second consecutive winning season, tallying a 10-8-1 record. It was, ac­ cording to Coach Brian Denyer, "the team which developed the most in one season that I have coached." We used the 4-2-4 formation this year.

With early injuries, lack of experience and confidence, the team was quickly 1 and 4. However, tri-captains Bill Clark, Bryan Nahrwold and Kent Oswald worked relentlessly to come back with good victories over Storm King, Rye and Wright Tech. Although losing twice to Brunswick and to Hackley, this year's league winners, King was a finalist in the Storm King Tournament, where two disputed penalties gave a badly outshot Brunswick a 3-2 overtime win. Nahrwold was the Tourney's M.V.P. Other highlights of the season were the 8-0 rout of Hamden Hall, a 5-2 win over McBurney with only ten men, Paul Stanley's four shutouts as a rookie goalie, fullback Peter Deering's four penalty goals, and Bill Clark's 15 goals in 19 games. As for the King J.V.'s, they beat St. Lukes Varsity, twice, by 3 goals.

The recent years of incessant defeat had little effect upon the performance of the varsity football team of 1974. The disheartening losing tradition of football at King is now behind us.

As a result of the winless teams of '72 and 73, this year's squad did lack in experience as a unit. But training, led by Head Coach Buzz Stanley and Assistants Dave Sample and Bud Calabrese, began early for the competitive ten game season. The unit's organization and skills steadily improved during practices, and the highly spirited athletes were thirsty for victory.

King lost the opening game to Brunswick, but came right back with a decisive win over Rye. This see-saw pattern was constant throughout the season.

The team dominated their opponents in first downs, scoring, and in total offense by an overwhelming margin. The offensive spark was provided by the running of Mick Koczeniak, Cam Sillars, Ralph Esposito, and Co-captain Jim Wilson, and by the pass receiving of John Daum and Sam Doe. Defensively, Co-captains Paul Le Blanc and Jim Wilson had an impressive 126 tackles, 57 assists between them. Cam Sillars contributed 52 tackles, 28 assists; Mick Koczeniak had 54 tackles, 18 assists; Greg Anderson had 44 tackles, 28 assists; and Steve Chananie added 49 tackles, 31 assists.

Ending the season with 5 wins in 10 games, 5 freshmen, 3 sophomores, and 4 juniors will be returning for more.

VARSITY BASKETBALL

At the beginning of the 1974-1975 season, speaking optimis­ tically yet seriously, coaches Buzz Stanley and David Sample re­ garded the team as a potential threat to the league title. They had good reason to do so because four of the original starting team were all lettermen from last year. Aided by a strong bench, the team won two of their first three games, and the coaches' prediction seemed very probable.

Then, slowly, problems began to occur. In early January Head Coach Buzz Stanley slipped a disc in his back and could not coach the team for the remainder of the season. Secondly, in late January, the team's high scorer and leading rebounder, Mickey Kozceniak, was expelled from school. With the loss of senior Sam Boe for the season due to an injury, Coach David Sample began using new plays and having them run by differ­ ent combinations of players. King's main problem would occur usually early in the game when they would hit a cold spell and for one quarter would be outscored significantly. This serious problem led to an embarassing ten game losing streak, broken with a solid win over Wright Tech.

Overall, King finished with a record of 315, with a 2-12 mark in the league. High scorer was sophomore Tony Vaamonde with 11.2 points per game. Leading in rebounds was senior and Co-Captain John Daum, averaging a little more than eight rebounds per game. Two juniors having a very fine season finishing very strongly were Co-Captain Kent Oswald and Dave Reynolds, who came off the bench in the middle of the season to become a regular starter. One final statistic; King averaged forty five points per game while allowing their opposition to score sixty one points

per game.

Despite their poor record, the team pro­ vided excitement for its fans and hopefully looks forward to a very successful season next year.

VARSITY WRESTLING

Varsity Wrestling produced a near perfect record this year by winning seven of their eight matches. The season began Dec. 6 with the W.C.P.P.S.S.A. Tournament held at Haddey. King placed third with 41 points, defeating five schools. N.Y.M.A. won the tournament with 87 points and second place was awarded to McBurney with 60 pts.

King wrestlers won 3 medals. Bill Isaacs and Peter Goldstein both gained gold medals and Mark Barrett received a silver medal. Dave Donahue and Peter Vogt each took a third place.

The first dual meet was at Trinity. King lost by a score of 36-18 and it was here that they learned they needed better conditioning. Bill Isaacs pinned his man in 2:30 and Dave Donahue, Ralph Esposito, Tom Kaplan, and Peter Vogt won on decisions. After a tough week of long practices King went up against Storm King and demolished them 42-19. Mar Barrett's :47 sec. pin turned out to be the quickest pin on the team all year.

Returning from Christmas recess King faced N.Y.S.D. and Storm King. King crushed both teams 44-17 and 39-18 respectively. The following two matches marked the peak of the season. The first match was against Monclair Academy, a team that King had never beaten in 10 years of wrestling. The team had been preparing for this match for two months. Led by outstanding performances by all of the wrestler King won 30-23. Dave Donahue pinned a veteran senior, Bill Isaacs won by a superior decision of 11-0, Jim Goldman tied 9-9 in his finest match of the season, and Ralph Esposito pinned his adversary assuring the team a victory. Kenny Baye pinned his opponent and Peter Vogt and Tom Kaplan won by decisions. The second peak match was against Collegiate. Collegiate was out for revenge because they had lost the previous year to King 28-27. Their efforts failed and a superior Viking team won 31-24. Dave Donahue turned his even match around with :42 sec. remaining by pinning his man. Mark Barrett took his man down 5 times and won 13-9. Tom Kaplan reversed his man with :15 sec. remaining and won 7-5.

Another first for the team was wrestling Stamford Catholic H.S. In thi match Dave Donahue pasted a tough opponent 12-2. Bill Isaacs had a 17-2 victory. Barrett and Goldstein had pins, Jim Goldman got his first win of the season in an excellent match. The dual meet season ended when King put away Hackley 54-3.

On February 22 King hosted the Fairchester Invitational Tour nament and won it with 891/2 points, defeating N.Y.S.D. (73) Hopkins Grammar J.C. (54), Hackley (35) and Daycroft (24). Baye, Donahue, Isaacs, Barrett, Gold­ stein, Kaplan and Esposito won their weight classes. An outstanding effort was made by Tom Kaplan in defeating the MVW of the Westchester Tournament in overtime. The following week Barrett, Donahue, and Goldstein wres­ tled in the New England Tournament. Donahue, having great endurance, won 4 of his 6 matches to get a fourth place. The next week Co-captains Barrett and Kaplan, Donahue, Esposito, and Isaacs participated in the National Prep School Wrestling Championships at Lehigh University. Here 66 of the finest wrestling schools gathered to compete for two days in the top prep school wrestling in the country. Mark Barrett reached the semi-finals at 129 lbs. after defeating 3 adversaries—one of which was won in overtime 11-1. Mark lost, but the fact he reached the semi's is an outstanding accomplishment.

Outstanding individual records were notched by Donahue, 16-3, Isaacs 13-1, Goldstein 12-3, T. Kaplan 10-2, Vogt 7-2-2, and Esposito with 8-6 in his first year wrestling.

The 1975-76 season looks to be the best ever as all wrestlers will be returning. Next year the team will have tri­ captains, Dave Donahue, Mark Barrett, and Tom Kaplan. The great success of the season was due to various things such as dedication and long workouts but without the excellent coaching of Mr. Burns the season would not have turned out the way it did.

Front row: John Kaplan, Jamie Lineberger, Gregg Franklin; Back row: Marshall Walker, Paul Cole, David Pollack, Nelson Zindell (coach).

This was the initial year for Junior Varsity Wrestling. Under the capable instruction of Mr. Zindell, the J.V. grapplers competed against Trinity, Daycroft and Stamford Catholic. Paul Cole, with a 4-1 record, Mike Rasmussen, Dave Pollack, Marshall Walker, Gregg Franklin and Jamie Lineberger all saw action. Hopefully, the coming years will bring an expanded schedule and a better complement of wrestlers.

Totally inexperienced, except for a few wrestlers, the Middle School Wrestling Team compiled a record of 3-6 and placed sixth in the Fairchester Wrestling Championships.

With the coaching of Greg Grote, and the assistance of Bob Burns, the Varsity coach, the team profited greatly.

Captain Richard Goldman placed first in his weight class in the Fairchester Tournament for the second year in a row, and completed the season with a perfect 12-0 record. Peter Mitchell had a strong second season and earned a third place in the tournament. Among the new prospects for the team were Steve Simmons, who placed third in the tournament, and Donald Harrington, Drake Dubin and Mark Franklin, who finished fourth in their weight divisions at the Fairchester Championships.

Many other wrestlers contributed to the team's success. Bert Upson ended with a 3-2 record, Henry Molwitz finished with a 4-0-1 mark, and Peter Bonnesen completed a 2-0 season. Other wrestlers in team matches included Greg Apicella, Leo Landers, Greg Paolini, Bruce Clark, Carl Schoenwald, Tom Gregory, Fred Kaynor, Robert Green, and Derek Griffiths.

THERE'S NOTHIN' LIKE A GOOD BUZZ Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed and in such desperate enterprises?

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

Henry David Thoreau

A man bent over his guitar, A shearsman of sorts. The day was green.

They said, "You have a blue guitar, You do not play things as they are!"

The man replied, "Things as they are Are changed upon the blue guitar."

And they said then, "But play, you must, A tune beyond us, yet ourselves."

A tune upon the blue guitar of things exactly as they are.

Gone to Hell

The people sang and the people drank Ah, the sweetness of a cellar dank, The floor so cold and yet so warm, Insulated from the bitter storm.

The dark and deep, ah, a protection, Indeed, from man's cynical detection.

Oh, the pretense of smooth and song, Got to just evade that painful throng.

Seems we're all detecting a noxious smell, That this old world has gone to hell.

This year's Varsity Baseball team had a very long and frustrating season. After fourteen games, the squad had managed only four wins, only two of which coming in league play. Despite the losing effort, both Coach VanVechten and Coach Hudson have done an excellent job work­ ing with the team.

Individually, the team was led by co-captains Dave Reynolds and Tom Shahnazarian. Reynolds aptly handled all of the catching duties and batted in the cleanup position most of the Spring.

Shahnazarian had an outstanding year batting .400-plus and leading the team in most every hitting category while playing solidly on the field.

Also performing well were Jay McDermott, the team's number two batter and mainstay in left field; Kent Oswald, a strong hitter and fine short­ stop and pitcher; returning letterman Paul Cole who shored up the infield at second base; and ace pitcher Bob Hitchcock, who had the unfortu­ nate role of absorbing losses due to his team­ mates' errors.

Among this year’s most improved players were Junior Mike Rasmussen, who hit better than .300 all season, and Freshman Ken Fay, doing a superb job at the plate and in the field.

Despite a losing season, most players agreed that participating on the Varsity Baseball team was a worthwhile adventure this season and many look anxiously to next year as the year of the Vikings!

This year's King golf squad got off to a rough start with many returning players plagued with injury and illness. Led by Matt Gormly, Crawford White and Tom Walsh, they scored a 4-1 victory over St. Luke's in their first match. Fighting off cold winds and a thirty degree temperature, they managed only a tie with Brunswick, but won con­ vincingly over Wright Tech 6-0 in their third match. With many players shooting well in previous matches, hopes were high for an upset victory over perennial rival Hackley. But the Vikings bowed to Hackley with only Matt Gormly and Crawford White being victorious.

The next week saw King again triumph over St. Luke's by a 6-0, margin. Hot on the heels of this victory came a tie with Rye to again dampen King spirits. In a crucial encounter against Brunswick at Stanwich Country Club the following week, the Vikings bowed to tough opposition and rough layouts 6-0.

At midseason, King participated in the W.C.P.P.S.A.A. Tourna­ ment. Tom Walsh fired a blazing 75 to win the individual title, followed by teammate Matt Gormly at 79 for a third place tie. King placed third in team play behind Brunswick and Horace Mann.

The highlight of the season was a stunning victory over Hackley, the first for King in many years, with match victories by Crawford White, Tom Walsh, Tom Markiewicz and Hank Jones providing the win­ ning margin. The final match of the year was a King victory over Rye at Woodway Country Club, ensuring the Vikings second place in the Fairchester League and increasing the team record to 5-2-2 for the season.

The best individual team record was held by Crawford White, 7-1-1, followed by All League golfer Matt Gormly who compiled a 6-2-1 record. Special thanks should be given to Coach Carlson and to seniors Tom Walsh and Tom Markiewicz, whose presence and leader­ ship will be missed by next year's squad, which will be bolstered by up and coming golfers like freshman Mark Franklin

MIDDLE SCHOOL BASEBALL This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Middle School baseball team improved greatly as the season progressed. Our season was a total team effort with everyone contributing to our victories.

Poor hitting and too many fielding errors caused us to lose our first few games, but with the help of our coach Mr. Grote and the pitching of John Antonelli and Ken Corbin we found the right combination that "helped us to win the next few games.

There were many outstanding players on the squad. Team members from the eighth grade, returning for their third year of Middle School baseball, were John Antonelli and Chris Cavanna. Other players from the eighth grade were: Rob Abbott, Jeff Caldwell, Scott Cizek, Robert Dann, Chris Dyer, Bob Kelly, Pete Mitchell, and Roger Revel. Seventh grade teammates included: Ken Corbin, Doug Luther, Gary Morrell, Rick Nelson, and Adam Vicinus.

The entire team would like to thank Mr. Grote for an enjoyable season.

MIDDLE SCHOOL TENNIS The Middle School Tennis Team has had a great season this year. They have gone undefeated thus far with victories over New Canaan Country School and two wins each over Fairfield Country Day School and Hamden Hall. The team plans to be undefeated if they can conclude their season with victories over Hackley and Harvey schools.

Coached by Mr. Zindell and managed by Mark Lerner, the team is comprised of thirteen members.

The top five singles players were Paul Crispi, Bill Fleckner, Mike Meyer, Mark Bast and Todd Jacobs.

The doubles team consisted of Drake Dubin and Billy Aron, Fred Kaynor and Don Cochran, Charles McGarry and James Hare, and Gary Briggs and Lee Boroson.

Singles players have lost only three matches and doubles teams have been undefeated thus far; the team has enjoyed a great season. In addition to scheduled interscholastic matches, the team has asked for a special challenge match against the school Varsity Tennis Team.
