They will join a nucleus from last year's team of six one-time starters who notched a 6-18rover- all record, 2-12 in the Western Conference. Heading the list is Tom Cole, a 6'7" center-forward from Springfield, Ill., who was .. g srysecond leading scorer with a 12.1 7><..iaverage last season. He also pulled down asteam-high 223 rebounds.

Left-hander Charlie Higgs, a 6'4" forward from Michigan City, Ind., also had his moments, espe- cially against Purdue when he tossed six straight shots through the hoop in the first half. He will add depth to the hotly-con- tested forward spot, Small Center Bob Brown, an aggressive but small (6'4") center, will be back to add his hustle, spirit and re- bounding ability to $track's second Michigan team. He nabbed 149 rebounds last year, third best. The last letterman who started a game is hot-shooting guard Steve Schoenherr, who amazed spectators with hissoft jump shot in spot perfornces. track said that the reasnihe didn't play more was a defensive one, as Hall had the edge in that department. Another name that could be added to the list of returnees is peppery guard Tom Eveland, not- ed for his ball-handling ability. Eveland didn't play much last dyear-because of anearly injury, but will be back at full strength this winter. Three other reserves that saw little action In'1961, Syl Jankow- ski, George Ginger and Joe Naam- eth, will also be back. The first two are football players and start- ed late last season. Ineligibility lpnded One last player that 8track hopes to see return is 6'4" for- ward Don Petroff, who wasaver- aging 10.5 for .15 games until be- ing declared. academically ineligi- ble for the second half of the season. Despite the return of these men, 'track is most enthusiastic about the new blood, especially two transfer students that will help out on the backboards. They are 6'4" John Oosterbaan who came from Dope Cillege, and 61," John Xjrris from Aj4~or Col- ee in 'Mississippi, both of whom would have seen much': actionn last yesr, freshnan coach- Tom Jor- genson says. Both are good shoot- ers andh mpers but could use more weight to battle the Big Ten boardinen. "Yep, a third transfer is Dan Hoag, whom. Strack thinks will help out at the guard position. ttuard iiipefulsc However, Sti'ack considers two hustlin~g gft, rds from the '61 fresh- man squad to be prime contenders this year. They' are Doug Herner and 13Q1 Cantrell, a pair of 5'1O0 speedsters. Both played for state champions. in their' high school years., the formner at Lansing- Sx- ton, two-time (lehigen' Class A winners, and the latter at Wash- ington of East Chicago, nd. Add a fourth guard newcomer in Hiram Jackson, a springy 6'l" converted pivotman from Spring- field, Ill., to combine with Hall, Schoenherr and Eveland, and Strackhas that much needed depth. Three other sophomores who can also be thrown into the battle for front court positions are 64" Barry Andrews from. Escanaba, 6'- 6" Doug Greenwold from Grand R~apids, and 6'3" Bob Yearout from Cincinnati. "These new, additions will make the competition keen, and that's good," Strack said, "and from all appearances we'll be much quicker than last year, both in the front and back courts."E Strack often said last season that lack of speed and depth were the main deficits, both of which seem to be on the way to correc- tion. The added rebounding power will also help, but strangely enough, Michigan's short team was rarely outrebounded last year but didn't have the speed to fast break. This year's squad will be a synthesis of last year's rugged, bulky, but slow quintet, and the speedy, thin, lithe newcomers. A disappointing freshman year in the Big Ten behind him, Dave Strack looks forward to the 1961- 62 season with some hard-earned valuable experience in his head and his hopes resting on an inex- perienced crop of fledglings.
