Racket From The Tennis World
MARVIN W. LUCAS
Our newest athletic team is faring quite well. The Bronco Tennis
Squad, under Coach Page Saunders, has made relatively good showing
during its premier season. The team is composed of juniors Jesse Wil
liams, Samuel Dove, and Marvin Stokes, sophomore Floyd Howard, and
freshman Wilber Wilson. All are expected to be back next season and
we anticipate a fine season. Through the first eight matches the Bronco
work-sheet looks something like this:
April 3 — Lost to North Carolina College — 6-0
April 8 — Won from Livingstone — 5-1
April 18 — Lost to Elizabeth City — 4-3
April 24 — Won from Livingstone — 4-3
April 26 — Lost to North Carolina College — 5-2
April 30 — Lost to Elizabeth City — 6-1
May 3 — Lost to Saint Augustine’s — 4-1
May 6 — Lost to Saint Augustine’s — 4-2

Support
M. WALKER
The non-support on the part of a
good number of students at Fay
etteville State Teachers College
has recently come to the attention
of several Bronco baseball players.
After losing to AUen University
of South Carolina, 13-3, a member
of the team asked me, “Walker,
did you notice how the students
stayed until the last out? Even
though their team seemed to have
had the game won, they stayed
anyway.” Questions like this have
come from several players and a
few student loyalists.
As a member of the team and a
lover of sports, I am asking on be
half of the FSTC teams that you
give us the support we need to rep
resent you as best we can.
Broncos Lose
MARLYN WALKER
The Broncos opened the 1962-63
Baseball Season by losing to Shaw
University and to Maryland State
by scores of 10-6 and 7-6 respec
tively.
Bronco pilot. Coach Hubert
Doub, sent his knuckle-balling
southpaw, James Whitted, against
the Shaw Bears. Whitted maintain
ed almost perfect control for six
innings. Coach Doub then called
curve-balling Johnny Largent. Then
Shaw unleased its heavy artillery
and took a 5-3 lead. The continu
ous drizzle of rain and the muddy
field had nothing to do with the
spirited Broncos. Trailing by two
runs going into the bottom of the
sixth inning, the Broncos got two
base runners by way of a walk and
a single. Then glue-fingered Willie
Woodard slammed a single to cen
ter field allowing both runners to
score and tie the score at 5-5. At
this point the rain fell harder and
the umpire threatened to call the
game. But unfortunately for the
Broncos, they agreed to continue
for at least another inning. That
additional rain-plagued inning was
just enough for the Bears to score
five runs and to take a 10 5 lead.
The never-say-die Broncos scored
one run in the last of the seventh
inning. Then both coaches and the
umpire agreed to stop the game
to prevent injuries that might have
been caused by the rain and the
muddy diamond.
In the second Central Intercol
legiate Athletic Association outing,
the Broncos lost a hear-breaker to
a scrappy Maryland State nine.
Fire-balling Willard Cotton pitched
superb innings. Although the Bron
co infield committed several costly
errors. Cotton was able to hold a
6-3 lead going into the ninth inning.
At one point, Maryland State load
ed the bases with one out. Then
Cotton settled down and ended
the inning by striking out the next
two batters.
The ninth frame proved fatal to
Cotton’s expert performance as
Maryland scored four runs on
two errors. So ends the story of
the hard luck Broncos. “But,” as
one team - member commented,
“we never give up.”
