Schmidt 4th in
State Tourney
By Jeff Factor
WHS wrestling co-captain
Greg Schmidt (108) placed
fourth in the state championships last week before a
crowd of 7,500 in Princeton's
Jadwin Gym.
Schmidt, the only Westfield wrestler (out of four
who qualified) to get by (lie
preliminary round, defeated
two previously unbeaten
opponents before dropping a
heart-breaking 5-4 decision
in the semis to freshman
Kevin Jacoutot of Madison
Central.
In that match the score
was 4-4 at the end of the
third period yet Jacoutot
had accumulated exactly a
minute riding time and was
awarded a point and a 5-4
victory.
Schmidt's
quarter-final
victory came over Fair
Lawn's Leo Miller by a 5-4
overtime score.
At the end of regulation
the score clock registered 55 which forced the extra
period. In O.T. the lead
changed three times before
Schmidt escaped in the last
minute for one point and the
match.
64 on Devil Lacrosse Team, Newest Varsity Sport at WHS
In the consolations Schmidt lost a decision (5-2) to
John Browning of Cherry
Hill. Schmidt felt that he
"wasn't mentally in the
match after the close loss in
the semis."
PIN POINTS . . . Schmidt's
arch-rival Joe Spinazzola of
Seton Hall was the eventual
winner of the 108 pound division
...
Schmidt
finished his high school
career with a 19-0 j.v. record
and a 45-10 overall varsity
record. Next week, a season
wrap-up.
Swimmers "More
Than Successful"
By Dean A. Roth
The WHS boys' swimming
team had a "more than
successful season than
expected this year, although
the team placed only fourth
in the State Championships
and was not a major factor
in the Eastern Interscholastic
Swimming
Championshionships,"
according to junior merman
Dan Mofgan.
Although at the start of
the season, the general
consensus was that this
year's team was a wellbalanced team with depth,
but no stars. As the season
p r o g r e s s e d , however
sophomore Art Schmidt
emerged as the leading
merman.
Nothing stresses this point
better than the fact that
Schmidt turned in the
teams' best times this
season in five individual
events, and was on both of
the fastest relays
His times were: in the 200
yd. freestyle, 1:50.7; the 200
yd. individual medley,
2:08.8; the 100 yd. butterfly,
54.152; the 500 yd. freestyle,
5:10.3, and in the 100 yd.
backstroke, 1:01.4.
The year's best 200 yd.
medly relay team was that
of Kevin Byrnes - Tom
Rokosny - Art Schmidt •
Tony Meyers with a 1:43.9
time, and the swiftest 400 yd
freestyle relay team was
Tony Meyers - Mike Bacso Rob Davis - Art Schmidt
with a season's best 3:18.7
time.
Tony Meyers, a member
of both relay teams, also
turned In the year's best
time in the 50 yd. freestyle of
22,2. Mike Bacso took the
team crown in the 100 yd.
freestyle with a 50.021 time,
and
Tom
Rokosny
registered the quickest 100
yd. breastroke with a 1:07.4.
The Best in the 1 m. dive
goes to Mike Smith for his
point totals of 217.35 for 6
dives and 368.75 for 11 dives.
The mermen ended their
season with a 11 - 0 - 1
record, their only blemish
being an 86 - 86 tie with St.
Joseph's of Metuchen, a
team that captain Mike
Bacso feels "we could beat
if we swam them in the
latter part of the season."
The Westfield team's much
heralded meet with Cherry
Hill East was postponed
twice because of snow, and
finally canceled.
SWIM SHORTS - "Oops I
goofed" department: The
third place 400 yd. freestyle
relay team in the state
champoinships mentioned
Mar. 8 should include Mike
Bacso instead of Dan
Morgan . . . "Now it can be
known" department: Coach
Perry Coultas' secret to
championship swimming is
"Go quick." ..."Thanks
much" to all of the faithful
readers from the team . . .
and their writer!

p.m. Members not available for the photo were Jerry
Sherman and Fred Best of Westfield and Joe Allocco and
Walter Winburn of Scotch Plains.
Several Champs to Join
Runners In Adoption
Agency Benefit
The Run Committee for
Spaulding for Children, the
free adoption agency, is
anticipating a good number
of runners to log many miles
April 8 at Tamaques Park, 1
p.m. as they "take off" with
traffic on the outer road to
complete .8126 per lap to aid
"the kids who have no
families."
The run starts at the
parking lot near the tennis
courts where there will be a
water station and timing
device. There is no entry
fee. The participants will
run at the speed and
distance they choose since
the emphasis is geared to
the numbers of sponsors and
monies donated to help the
non-profit agency find
families for the children
with special needs who arc
waiting for adoption.
There will be champions
of note among the runners
including Austin Newman,
62 year old world record
holder for one mile and
National Indoor Champion
for the one mile and 1000
yard run, and Harold
Greenberg, New Jersey
champion of the one and
three mile run and National
Champion
of the 25
kilometer run. These two
veterans will be joined by
the men and women who run
for the joy of running and
helping a worthy cause
without any claim to
championship.
T-shirts
have
been
donated by "Adidas" with
the Spaulding logo and
"Run-Walk/a-thon on one
side and the "Adidas"
emblem on the other. They
will be given to the first 50
pre-entry runners who
submit their sponsor forms
with a minimum of 10
sponsors listed. "Mail ins"
are accepted and sponsor
forms are available at the
Spaulding
office,
36
Prospect St. and the Rorden
Realty, 44 Elm St. For
further information, call the
Spaulding ; office.
There are 64 members on
this year's Westfield High
School lacrosse team. The
1979 season will see the Blue
Devils field both a varsity
and junior varsity team. It
was only three years ago
that 19 boys and Coach
Shaun Cherewich started
the Weslfield Lacrosse Club.
Now lacrosse
is
an
established part of Westfield
with a summer league, a fall
program and the high school
teams in the spring.
This year's varsity team
is again youth-oriented with
only eight seniors on the
squad. Leading the team artTom Gilday, Mark Frega,
Jim Belcher, Jim Tadlock
and Bruce Roberts. Junior
standouts include Mike
Scacifero, Gary Turi, and
Fred Kessler. Sophomores
Shawn
Flaherty
and
returning letter winner Matt
McDermott. Goal tending
chores will be shared by
Greg Smith, Glenn Johansen, along with sophomore
prospect Tim lenders.
The lacrosse Blue Devils
are members of the Garden
State Lacrosse League, but
have seven of 13 games
against the (ougher and
more experienced Pitl-Filch
League. Home games,
played at the Memorial Pool
Field, will feature such
outstanding teams
as
Summit, Clark, Pingry,
Livingston, St. Joseph's and
Edison. There are two
Saturday games on Apr. 14
and 21. beginning at one
o'clock. All other games
begin at 3:45. The varsity
and junior varsity games
will
be
played
simultaneously.
Coach Cherewich
and
Junior
Varsity
Coach
George
Kapner
are
The 197!) Laeross* Team
preparing the squads for the
coming season,. "Of course,
our main concern is
leaching the fundamentals
of the game. Unlike others
sports, most boys come to
our
program
totally
ignorant of the basic concepts of the rules, skills and
understanding of the game
of lacrosse. We are finally
getting a nucleus of boys
who have played for a
couple of years and know
the game. We should be
competitive," states Coach
Cherewich.
Coach Kapner is pleased
to be coaching the younger
boys on the first junior
varsity squad at Weslfield.
"The experience these ninth
and tenth graders will get
this year will improve the
varsity next year. Only
game experience will teach
the intricacies of play."
There will be a series of
scrimmages during the last

Premier Divfeion III4
Springfield 1
In its opening game of the
1979 Spring Soccer League,
the division 3 premier team
travelled to Springfield
Sunday to play a tough
Mountainside squad, and
came back as 4-1 victors.
Scoring for Westfield were
Mike Shuvart with two
goals, and Nikhil Singh and
Danny Fitzgerald with one
goal apiece. Although the
score didn't show it, it was a
very close game and the
defenses were kept busy
throughout the 90 minutes.
Making some fine plays on
defense were Dominick
Frasso, Brad Upham and
Billy Macaluso. Joe Longo
had a great day in goal,
making outstanding saves.
Tom Miller, Ron Johnson
and Mike Chin distributed
some nice balls to the wings
and kept the Mountainside
defense off balance.
Mountainside was held
scoreless until their forwards,
who
were
threatening all games,
finally broke through to
score in the third quarter.
Mountainside's goalie was
outstanding, making 50 and
65 yard kicks during the
game.
It was a well deserved win
for the Westfield team in its
first game of the season.
Premier Division II 7
Hahway4
In the opening game of the
1979 Spring Soccer League,
the Westfield Premier
Division II team downed
Rahway 7-4 in a hard fought
game on a sunny but very
windy day. For early in the
season Westfield showed
good fundamental passing
which led to a number oi
goals. The scoring was led
by J.C. Dilorio with a 3-goal
hat-trick ably assisted by
fellow forwards Tony Valles
(2 goals) and Mark Bleiweis
(1 goal).
Outstanding
centering passes throughout
the game were made from
the wings by both Valles and
Bruno DiDario.
The first goal of the game
by Dilorio was set-up by
center halfback Joe DiBella,
who along with half-backs
Frank Blanchette and Cam
Dunnan not only put up a
strong defense but added to
the offense. The second goal
was scored by halfback
Dunnan, a 25 foot shot into
the upper corner of the goal.
The fullbacks led by Drew
Kronick played a strong
game and added to the offense by containing Rahway
in their own end of field for
most of the first half, which
ended with Westfield ahead
3-0.
On many
occasions
fullbacks John Coates and
Bobby O'Herron skillfully
cut-off
Rahway's
fast
breaks greatly assisting
goal tenders Pete Kellogg
and Glenn Bleiweis. Rahway scored four times in the
second half, in which the
wind was a factor, but the
Westfield offense matched
the Rahway tallies with 4 of
their own. Adding depth to
the Westfield team with fine
play were John Schwartz on
the line and Joe Dazzo on
defense.
