Although not in contention for the conference playoffs, the Knights reached many of their goals. They established a new record for wins, breaking the old school mark at 17. Another positive objective was reached when the Knights defeated arch-rival Methodist (7- 2) earlier this year. At the time, Methodist was ranked #2 in Division III, and had a winning streak of 22 games. This was the first victory over Methodist since 1978, and only the second victory in the school’s history against them. In total, the Knights broke 41 school records for the ’88 season. Leaders for the baseball team were; Jim Isenhart - batting average (.404), and stolen bases (31), Kent Smith -battingaverage (,403)andRBIs(33), and Sean Hassel - win-loss record (11-4) and era (2.96). Seniors on the team playing their last year of college baseball were Gary Garber (1st base and pitcher) and Ralph Paradiso (left field). The Knights were coached by Gary Swanson, Brian Atchison, and Stewart Carmichael. Elizabeth Crawford “It’s at a standstill,” said Jill Vamos, a member of Baseball Boosters. The newly formed club to support the base ball Knights is still working on drawing up clubby-lawsfor approvalby baseball team members and the athletic department Once the by-laws are passed and legal funds are obtained. Baseball Boosters’ next step consists of electing officers. “Once the club is established offi cially we can get the ball rolling, but as for now, with the end of the academic year and baseball season coming to an end, I don’t think much will be accomplished until next year,” said Vamos.
