1965 Memories

George Santoni, Danny Santoni and Glenn Wyrostok are the last of the original 1962 North Stars that remain with the team due to age restrictions.

Gary Simmons stays with the team as pitching and baserunning coach (must have been that triple that convinced coach McLean we needed his expertise).

The last of the Shaughnessy recruits, Ron Tratch - Larry's brother, joins the team as well as a number of players from the previous year's North Stars Juvenile team.

We beat up on Calgary in the first game of the provincials, then beat out Edmonton two games to one to keep the title for the third straight year.

Danny Santoni wins the batting title, the home run title and the league MVP for the 1965 Lethbridge Major Men's Fastball League season.

George Santoni, Danny Santoni, Merlin Wyllie and Glenn Wyrostok are named to the All-Star team for the 1965 Lethbridge Major Men's Fastball season.
