Wildwood Hopes for Bachman Twist

by Jacob Schaad Jr. WILDWOOD - This could be the year of the Bachman Twist at Wildwood High School and they’re not talking about pretzels, either. Ben Bachman is the head football coach at Wildwood and he hopes to twttt last year’s H-7 record around to a winning one this year. Bachman has some things going for his team, awaiting Saturday’s opening gun in an 11 a.m. game at St. Joseph's. One of his pluses is impetus. Just when things were looking dismal last year, the Warriors finished the season with a major upset of Lower Cape May Regional at the opposition’s homecoming. He hopes that victory will inspire his

players to greater heights this year. IT IVJAY have had some effect, already. Some 45 players turned out for practice this month at the CapeAtlantic League’s smallest school. Last year there were 30 candidates. “We have a much more positive outlook this year,” said an optimistic Bachman. “It’s the best attitude I have seen here, even when I was just a fan.” Wildwood hasn’t had a good season since the 1960’s and one of the reasons is that the coaches have changed faster than the players. Bachman is in his second year and he, hopes to be around long enough to establish a viable program of continuity. Bachman has some

Quality players to help him achieve his goal this year. One is halfback Calvin Hayward, 5-8,155 pounds, a broken field runner who made all-conference last y§ar. Rowland Turner, six feet and 190 pounds, is a

hard running and swift fullback. Anchoring the offensive and defensive lines at tackle is 5-9, 210 pound Ralph Pietropaula who missed last year because of a knee operation he underwent as a result of an in-

jury he suffered at a football camp. THE QUARTERBACK chores will probably be handled by Bill Osborne, (6-1, 185 pounds) who started last year and is a double threat as a passer and runner. Gary Schmidt and Buddy De Costa, both strong but weighing only 150 pounds, are contending, for the center spot and Chris Coleman, a half miler and hurdler in track, will be at offensive end. Bachman decribes him as having "good hands and respectable speed.” Greg Bixler, \n the secondary last year, will be switched to linebacker and Butch Maxley. 6-1 and 205 pounds,

who saw some action last year, will be at defensive end. “I don’t think we’re weak." Bachman said in summing up his team. "We’re not strong everywhere, but we're not weak in any one area." It might well be, then, that Bachman will twist around his record to .500 or better. The schedule: Sept. 25, at St. Joseph’s. 11 am.; Oct. 2, Middle Township, at noon; Oct 9. at Ocean City. 10:30 a.rrf.; Oct 16, Buena, noon; Oct, 23. at Pleasantville, noon* Qct. 30, at Hammonton, noon ; Nov, 20, Lower Cape May Regional, 1 p.m.
