The outlook for 1973 is a pleasant one. With six returning lettermen, the team should be strong. Coach McMillion is hopeful of winning a third straight district title. Mark Kozak, Robert Hurwitz, Jon Rivin and Robert Sumner all have done exceptionally well in the past. Additional help is expected from Terri Piland and Beth Silberstein. The newcomers are as yet untried and young, but show promise.

MANY NEWCOMERS LEAD VARSITY BASEBALL SQUAD
The outlook for the 1973 Baseball season appears cloudy going into practice. There are only three veterans, 8 returning. Keith Zirkle, John Moss, and Reginald Jones should make up the backbone of the team. Newcomers from the J.V., squad are Mike Lipford, Danny Brower, and Dickie Radar. There are several freshman prospects. They are Phil Harrell and Jim Topping. The Presidents will be hard-pressed to match last year’s 12-3 season record.

A SUCCESSFUL SEASON FOR THE GIRLS HOCKEY TEAM
This year’s team lacked skill, but they had a great desire to win which made a big difference in their play. The team was unified and they improved with each game. They ended with a record of 5-5-3, including games at the Tide- water Area Hockey Tournament in Williams- burg.
Coach Langston reviews some hopefully old records.

Coaches and players read the write up.
The 1973 track team will have many new faces. We will have five lettermen returning from Norcom and Wilson. They are: Elijah Jones, captain, Cecil Eley, co-captain, James Doughtie, Gary Hamlet and Phillip Mad Dog Freemen. We will be young as an over all team, but we are hopeful of having a good season. New people that seem to be bright spots are: James Whitehead, and
Anthony Armistead and many others we hope will soon come around. As soon as Basketball season is over we expect to get many of the Basketball players.
