Coach Joe Bedenk said his line-1
up will remain the same. Don!
Stickler will catch, Gary Miller;

bassi will be at shortstop, and'
Steve Baidy will corer third.
Captain Bob McMullen and his
brother, John, will cover leftfield.
and rightfield respectively, with'
Jim Lockerman in the centerfield
Spot.
The Mountaineers, with eight !
wins and three losses, will have
Jim Heise on the mound in the
first game. Heise. who led the
nation in strikeouts last year
with 111, is the workhorse of
the team and is considered an ,
outstanding pro prospect.
Carl Norman is the probable
starting pitcher in the second
game for West Virginia.
The Mountaineers have scored i
wins over Parris Island, Notre
Dame, Florida State, Brown. the!
Citadel, Fairmont State, West•
Virginia Wesleyan, and George
Washington. Their losses were to
Illinois and Wisconsin. The ll
lini scored two wins over them.

shortstop, Rod Shafer will play
third and bat sixth, Jim Dayoob,
in leftfield will bat seventh. and
John Blaiker will bat eighth*

Rabbits, who runs as his
name implies. is the leading
slugger on the learn. In 1855 he
banked 15 extra basehits in 15
games and this year his hitting
has been on par with the '55
performance.
Harrick lost only six men
from last year's squad, which
won 20 and lost 6. His leading
returnees, besides Rabbits, are
Firestone. who hit .409 last
year: McKown. Lenart, LaNeve,
Baliker. and Heise.
Each one of these men, with the ,
exception of pitcher Heise, is a
.300 or better hitter and tog ether'!
compose one of the strongest hit
ting Mountaineer squads in the!
past few years.

versity of Pennsylvania Saturday
where they will meet the Red and
Blue in a single game.
