Wash. (1 The Washington State Cougars are low on height, slow on speed and start Northern Division Dasnetoau as one of' the most dead cinch also pans the league has seen since the war. Coach Jack Fnel may even nave trouble improving much on the dis mal 3-13 record ot last year, out the season is likely to produce some kind of award for Ron Ben- nitk, one of six returning letter-men'. Bennink. the handsome, crew cut 6-foot-l junior from Lynden, shapes up as one oi me nest in tne ra cmc coast umierence. In the f 1 r s t five pre-season games, he held the team together and scored 120 points, almost as many as the 140 rung up by the next lour cougars oomoinea. Bennink played out front as a guard . as a soohomore but has been moved Into the post. now. He ' has learned to sink hook shots with either hand and has a nive jump shot. If they can get him MieMjall, the Cougars might be tough on oc casions. . ' 1 Any substantial help for Bennink Inside will have to come from Howard McCants, the 6-8 senior football end who is by far Hie big gest man on the team. McCants, who couldn't make his high school team back in River Rouge, Mich., has been coming along pretty well. He will have to improve his timing, though, to be tough on rebounds. He is good on defense but isn't muc of a shot. With MoOants and Bennink in the post, the Cougars should have a hot-scoring trio out front to be a title contender. They don't. Capt. Bob Swanson, 6-3, Modips; I Hon Kiock, 6-1, rioquiam; ana Bill Rehder, 6-4, Livermore, Calif., 1 maneuver the ball fairly well but i aren't Big scorers, rney seem to lack the poise as well as the eye to hit regularly. Swanson, one of only two sen iors on the team, is a good floor leader, however, and might bring the squad along if lie finds him self. ' The crafty Friel. startling his 26th year here, will again use the S la toon system he introduced to asketball. His second unit, how ever mav have to concentrate solely on ball control, keep the status quo until the regulars are rested. The reserves haven't been scoring and Friel said he mav have to use them as a "possession platoon." Al Perry, a 6-2 sophomore from Yakima, will be at center for the second five or take over on the lirst platoon if McCants doesn't pan out. Bert Underwood, 6-3 let terman from Davenport, is the third center. Jim Bauer from Wapat, the speedster at 5-11, and 5-U Jack irarton ot Chelan will be the sec ond platoon guards, with 6-2 Ron Aiken of Raymond and 6-2 Bob Lodge, Comptun, Calif. Junior Col lege transfer, the forwards. Ron Foisy, 5-9, Seattle; Jerry .Hanks, 5-10, Ellensburg; Bill Kiehn, 6-2, Pehastin; and Bob Mor gan, 6-1, Qarkston, fill out the squad and are likely to wind up on either of the first two units before it's over. WS, fortunately, opens at home Jan. 8 against Washington, one team it might be able to beat. From there it looks like a long season. The spirit is high but the material is about as low as fifth place, no better than fourth. (Friel likes Oregon to win It by a whisker over Oregon State and Idaho). Men.
