L
An influx of promising
newcomers brightens the
prospects for another win
ning season for basketball at
the University of Portland.
With school opening late.
Pilot roach Jack Avina wel
corned some bright new
prospects and five lettermen
back to The Bluff, along with
two other former varsity
members who'll return to
action after one year layoffs.
Heading the list of new
comers is 6 5 forward guard
Ric Hopkins, who earned
Junior College All America
honors last year at Gavilan
JC in Gilroy, California.
Hopkins averaged 27 points
and 16 rebounds per game to
earn national honors.
Another potential front
line member is 6 7 forward
Leonard Williams from Bir
mingham, Alabama.
He
averaged 21.6 points and 12.4
rebounds per contest, as he
led Glenn High to the 3A
State Championship.
Also new to the Pilots
roster are: Donald Dixon, a
6-2 guard from Fremont
High in Oakland, California;
Steve Severs, 6 7 forward
from Castro Valley, Cali­
fornia: and Ken O'Neal, 6 3
guard from Adams High
School in Portland.
All in all Avina says the
group of freshmen is one of
the best crop of yearlings
he's had in five years at UP.
Returning to action for the
Pilots this year will be guard
Frank Babcock, who was
red shirted last season, and
forward center Bruce Den
ton. who played for Avina
two years ago, but attended
a California Junior College
last year. Babcock is 6 1 and
saw limited action two years
ago, averaged 1.7 points per
game in varsity competition.
Denton, 6 6 and 225 pounds,
averaged 2 points per con
test in 1972 73 for the Pilots.
I«ettermen returning in­
clude four starters from last
year's team which posted a
15 11 mark and the first
winning season for the Pilots
in a decade.
The list of returnees looks
like this:
Quentin "Stretch" Braxton.
6 7 Senior forward who aver
aged 16.3 PPG to lead the
team in scoring, and also
pulled down a team leading
average of 6.9 rebounds per
game. Over two years of
play, the Tallahassee, Florida
contribution to the Pilots has
averaged 17.4 PPG
the
top mark in IIP hasketball
history. With more ronsis
tent play, Avina feels that
Braxton could dominate most
opposing towards this season.
Floyd "Tiny" Banks, a 6 3
guard, has averaged 16.4
points per game for 2 years
of play, plus has hauled down
just under five rebounds |vcr
game.
A Senior, he is a
tough defensive player, and
earned plaudits from Mar
quette officials for his fine
performance against the
Warriors last year.
Banks
currently ranks in 20th place
on the Pilot All Time scoring
list, with 653 career points.
The record is 1,406 scored by
Jim Winters in the early
1950's.
Ron Davidson, another 6 3
guard, was Most Valuable
Player on the Pilot team last
year. He led the squad in
steals with 70, tied for the
lead in assists with 125, and
led in field goal percentage, a
lofty 560 on 91 successes in
157 tries. He averaged 8.3
PPG. plus hauled down 93
rebounds, an av erage of 3.6.
With great jumping ability,
he consistently swatted away
enemy field goal attempts
last season. Davidson is also
a Senior.
Doug laiurirella, a Senior
6 9 center, came on strong
late last year.
laiurirolla
averaged 2.6 PPG, and 3.3
rebounds.
This, however,
does not indicate his im
provement in play over the
last third of the season.
The fifth returning letter
man is 6 7 Fred Woodard.
Woodard gave the Pilots
effective play as the third
forward last year. He aver
aged 2.8 PPG, anil 2.4 re
bounds.
Missing' from last year's
varsity are guards Gay
Strachan and Ken Hettrich,
forwards Elias Delgadillo,
Rich Mollerup and Curl
Roberts, and center Boh
Weis.
Strachan and Hettrich are
still with the team, however,
this year in coaching roles.
Strachan is the new assistant
coach to Avina, and Hettrich
will he a graduate assistant.
The Pilots will play 14
home games, eight in Howard
Hall on the campus, and six
at Memorial Coliseum. These
games include a contest with
Marquette University, which
lost in the NCAA finals last
season to champion North
Carolina State; University of
Hawaii; Seattle University,
and three games for the Al
Giusti Cup with Portland
State.
On the road, the Pilots
play in two tournaments
the Show Me Classic at
University of Missouri, and
the Evansville Classic in
Evansville, Indiana.
