Ottawa Braves Set For Opener Here Saturday
Ottawa University braces for the season opener against Southwestern College Moundbuilders at Wilson Field House. Coach Dick Frear lists 31 lettermen including seniors Moor and Pemberton, juniors Bender and Knight, and sophomores Day and Elder. Injuries and doubtful status hover over Bettin Lewis and Barnes while Frear plans a seven-man reserve split and previews a fast break style. The Moundbuilders arrive with two games played, led by Maynard and O Neil, and Frear notes the visitors are tall and capable rebounders.
