Future shaping for Carl Thomas at Arizona with pro chance
Greeley Colorado special column explores Carl Thomas Arizona mastodon pitcher. If Arizona reaches the College World Series he could attract major league scouts and likely accept a strong pro offer. He may return to semipro ball in Minnesota if no deal, while eyeing a Wildcats basketball audition in 1954 55. Jim Savoini of Prescott also faces a tough injury year but remains anticipated for Colorado A M basketball and veterinary studies.
