Wohrman Will
Soon Finish
His Career
At Carolina
By SID BADGER
Gamecock Sports Writer
One of the most talented ath
letes to wear the Garnet and
Black will close out three fine years
here at the university at the close
of the current baseball team. Bill
Wohrman, presently roaming the
outfield for Gamecock baseball
team, will long be remembered for
his great feats on the gridiron as
well as the diamond. Not only will
he be remembered for his athletic
abilities but for his dynamic per
sonality, as a leader on the field,
his keen and spirited style of play,
and above all, the sincere modesty
that goes along in making a truely
fine athlete. Bill has been a friend
to all and will al-ays be remem
bered as such here at Carolina.
It is hard to find a better
blocker as he has been for the last
two years. He wvill be sorely
missed next season as he has been
a large factor in the success of
halfbacks Carl Brazell and Mike
Caskey as time after time his key
blocks have broken them loose.
For two consecutive years Wohr
man received high recognition for
his work as he received the Jack
obs Blocking Trophy in the state
and ACC (luring both years.
Knowvn better as a blocker, Bill
came into his own as a runner
(luring the latter part of the '54
season andi blossomed into one of
the most dangerous ball carriers
on the Gamecock squad, gaining
approxinmately five yards per try.
He has also been one of Coach
Petoskey's mainstays in the out
field for the past two seasons. Al
though his batting average was a
little below par at times, he has
always managed to hit the ball on
the nose and gets that base hit
when it counts most. He is a very
good diefensive outfielder.
We hate to lose an athlete of
Bill's caliber and we would like
nothing better than to see he and
his lovely wife remain in South
Carolina.
Gamecocks Have
Only Three More
Games At Home
The Gamecock baseball team
has five more games this season
after the game with the Clemson
Tigers tomorrow.
Three of these remaining gains
will be played in Columbia and the
other will be against The Citadel
at The Citadel.
The home games include North
Carolina, Wake Forest, and Clem
