1931 Cedrus Yearbook

CEDRUS Baseball Review of'30 C EDARVILLE COLLEGE can well be proud of the record her boys made on the baseball diamond last year. At the end of the season there were seven scores in the winning column for the Cedarville team and this far surpasses any base- ball record made in recent years. We more than broke even with our three neighboring rivals, Antioch, Wilming- ton and Wilberforce, and even held our own with the larger schools such as Dayton University. We lost a heartbreaker to Dayton to the tune of 5-2. Our boys outhit Dayton and outpitched Dayton, but one costly error and the breaks enabled Dayton to nose us out. Perhaps we would have had a couple more games in the winning column if the umpires had seen things as they really were, but you just ask Rife and Boyer about that, they know the inside dope. The hardest blow our team received was the loss of our new pitcher Garlow for the first month because of a rather serious automobile accident. But before the season was over Preston made a great comeback and pitched some fine ball. One of the high spots of the season was the defeat of the Ohio State Reserves. Sixty-fins
