Show Freshman Squad, First Row, left to right: Coach Ladell Anderson, Karl Miller, Jim Brittain, Carney Crisler, Dave Van Wagenen, Keith Ancell, Varsity Head Coach Jack Gardner; Second Row: Captain Norman Hubbard, Assistant Frosh Coach, Roger Tom-linson, Ben Cutler, Richard Madsen, Gary Chestang, Mark Rose, Reid Sanders, Equipment Manager, Lynn Bywater, Trainer, Walt Deland. Carney Crisler (7), outstanding frosh eager, goes high for shot against the B.Y.U. frosh. Coach LaDeli Anderson saw the dream of every basketball coach materialize this year - a team with talent, speed, height, aggressiveness and desire. Coach Anderson, a cage star in his own right at Utah State, assumed the responsibility of molding some 30 frosh hopefuls into a winner, and win they did. Coach Anderson and his Ute greenlings compiled an impressive 10-3 won-lost record through stiff competition with other conference frosh squads, junior college squads, and service teams. Blessed with good all round team height, LaDeli had one jump on Ute opponents - he could start a team with enough height to control both bankboards. It would be a mistake to single out stars from this year's squad. But the play of Carney Crisler and Gary Chestang, agile bankboard men, and the improved play of versatile Keith Ancell, undoubtedly pleased Head Coach Gardner who is looking for a lot of help from this year's frosh team.
