BALTIC - A man-sized job is cut out for 1st-year Head Coach Armand H. Falace, Baltic High School's new basketball coach, if the Eagles are to occupy a high place in the sun of the County Class B Basketball Tournament this year. Coach Falace's team had only 2 lettermen returning from last year:
Senior Forward Walace Hahn
Junior Forward John Young (7)
They were the nucleus around which the mentor has built his team.
Last year Bill Lint (52) and Glenn Regula (63) were lost to the squad through graduation and a back injury took a 3rd veteran, Paul Huff (21).
Coach Falace, a graduate of Ohio University and who coached at Shade for 2 years and Henrietta last season, looks forward to improved tournament play. Last year Baltic placed 7th in the League standings with a 5-5 record under then 4th-year Head Coach L.P. Wartiainen. This year the Eagles finished in 10th at 1-9.
Other current members on this year's team are:
Junior Guard Junior Ackerman
Senior Center George Christner (4)
Junior Guard Jim Friend
Sophomore Forward Arthur Limbacher
Junior Forward Bob Regula
Freshman Center Max Regula
Sophomore Guard Bob Reidenbach
Guard M. Schlarb
