PULLMAN. 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).
