because of Bitting. "She had played for me five or six years ago in AYSO soccer," he said. "When she found out I was coming here, she asked me 1f she could play." "I talked to him about it," Pemper said, "and then I talked to our athletic director (Joanne Kellogg). "I thought it would be a neat experience." she said. "It gets the adrenaline flowing." And the clothes flying.

two older brothers, she was constantly join- ing in on the court, especially with her older brother, Steve, who graduated from Huntington Beach two years ago. '.' I was the biggest tag-a-long," said Pemper, who accompanied Steve to numerous pickup games. She was usually the last one taken, always by Steve. • "No one would pick me, be- cause I was a girl. It used to make me mad," she said. "Steve used to laugh, and say 'I knew they weren't going to pick you.'" But Pemper has hardly been unwanted at Huntington Beach, She grew up playing point guard, but was switched to forward by coach Kathy Doyle, who wanted to utilize her 5-11 heighth. This year, she was switched back to the pomt. her favorite position. - "I like controlling the game," she said. "I don't know why she switched me back, but I'm glad. It's funny because I'm listed in the program as a forward." As forthe future, there won't be any Bo-like indecision on which sport she will choose. She hopes t6 play basketball somewhere on the West Coast, and said the Univer- sity of San Diego is oiie of ffie ~(.1mols that hllnontacted her. Her hobby will remain just that, a hobby. Are you listening, Bo?

Pcm per has a hobby. But Pemper has it a little tougher than the Ro) al/Raider. t I ast the outfield r-running back gets a couple of weeks off in bctY.cen ports.

By batting Mark Trafton, Sean Baron and Dave Rolls third, fourth and fifth each game, Cunningham figures to get off to a good start. Trafton had 51 RBIs last year, and Baron, batting marked the first time that USO has had two players drive in 50 or more runs in the same season. Rolls had 34 RBIs last sea ;on and 13 extra- base hits. Chris Bwy (.368 average last season), Chuck Graham (.352) and Andy Roberts (,326) also return. "This 1s a season I'm looking forward to with a great deal of anticipation," Cunmngham said "We're as well-equipped offen- sively as we have ever been.'" fourth behind him, drove in 56 and hit 16 home runs.

Louis Skertich (a sophomore left-hander who is scheduled to ~tart today), right-hander Mike Newby (a transfer from Mt. San Jacinto Community College) and junior left-hander Tony Battilega are expectE.'d to be Cunningham's starters. Skertich was 6-3 last year despite a 5.70 earned-run a erage, and Battilega was 3-2 with a 5.11 ERA, USD's schedule, which is tough- er than it has been in re eflt.years, includes UCLA (here Friday) San Diego State (twice) and ~l tate Fullerton. Those games p ede the West Coast Athletic Confer- ence season, which will include games against nationally ranked Pepperdme and Loyola Mary- mount. ''I sull think we have a good shot at b mg quite successful this sea- son," Cunmngham !la\d. "On paper, we have the makings of a pretty fine team."

SAN DIEGO-It took John Cun- mngham 25 years and 549 career coaching vlctones to get a stadium named after him, something Uni- versity of San Diego officials took care of this year by renaming the school's baseball field Cunningham Baseball Stadium. Like its coach, the USO baseball team has toiled in relative obscuri- ty for many seasons, overshadowed by that other college baseball team m town-the one often nationally ranked-San Diego State. Last year. the Toreros had their best season in eight years of Divi- sion I baseball, with a 31-23-1 record that included a regular-sea- son victory over San Diego State. Now the team itself may not be far behind the coach in receiving recognition. Cunningham's team will open its season today at 2 p.m. at home against UC Irvine. And the Toreros could be quite successful. Six starters who hit
