Coach Sidney Drain has hopes for a good season. He said, "It's going to be a strong rebuilding year, using a lot of underclassmen." One of the team's 10 varsity members, Kevin Henderson '74, said, "The team is coming along very well. All we need is a little more spirit on the team and from the spectators."
Coach Drain commented, "We have good high scoring gymnasts but lack in the second and third place scorers. If Ken Heller is back competing and the team improves on some weak spots, they may have a chance."
