)73 Bickerstaff Has USD five On Winning Path University of San ·ego has reached the halfway mark of ils 26-game basketball schedule. And all of a sucld('n Hl'rni<' Bickrrstaff has emerged as the fir ·t winning coach in the school'/> baskelball history which began wllh the 1955-56 season. The Toreros have compiled an impressive t0-3 rccorcl through their first 13 contcsls, lhe latest a 77-61 c·nnqu t of crosstown rival UC San !)iego Saturday night. And Bickerstaff, in the middle of his fourth season, has now coached the Toreros lo a 4!:i-43 career mark. And, al- though he no doubt looks for- ward to many more seasons at thP USD helm, Bicker taff now stands m good posllion lo im- prove upon his present won-lost figure. His starting five four juniors and a r an, providing good mater al tor al least another season With one minor ex< C'ption Bob McCutcheon · s 1 m his one campaign rn 7-5 , USD coaches have 1111 to have winning career . Phil Woolpcrt, whom Bic t,aff succeeded, finished a . ven- year span at an CVl'll 90-90. Four others all ended t h los- ing terms. So Bickerstaff, who played two years at USD before serving three years as Wool- pert's assistant, has a promis- ing future to consider as his club begins the secQ(ld half of its season in a game at Bak- ersfield State tonight. The Toreros return home to meet Cal Poly of San Luis Obispo Friday evening, then travel to Costa Mesa Saturda, for a return engagement wit Southern California College. Guard Stan Washington has closed m on leader Pinky Smith in the U, D coring statistics af- ter 13 games. In the last two ames, Washington has in- creased his average from 16.7 to 17.6 while Smith has dropped r.om 20. 7 to 19.8.
