Philadelphia, Pa. – The 1960's Drexel Lacrosse All-Decade Team was announced on Tuesday. Each decade team was selected by the Drexel University Men's Lacrosse Committee.
The 1960's All-Decade team features Dave Van Dyke, Gene Hoak, Nick Falcone, Alan Dietz, Tom O'Connor, Jack Geary, Samuel Wilson, John Daskalakis, Glenn Cannon, John Guzik, William Stevens, Murray Rosenberg, Dave Eberhart, Russell DeLuca, William Wittorff, Norman Shotwell, William Hall, Frederick Reever, Henry Nowak, James Deckman, Ron Leopold, John Hawk, Michael Quinn, George Myers and John Buckley.
Drexel started the 1960's with a number of All-America selections and continued play in the Middle Atlantic Conference. Herman "Eppy" Epstein retired in 1968, setting the stage for Tom Hayes to take over on the sidelines for the 1969 season.
The All-Decade teams are part of a celebration that will take place throughout the year. The 75th anniversary festivities will culminate in Drexel's final regular-season home game against Delaware on Saturday, April 22 at 3 p.m. The Dragons will wear throwback jerseys during the season-finale. The 75th anniversary team will be honored during halftime of the contest against the Blue Hens. The All-Decade teams will be recognized at the postgame reception.
A celebratory reception and dinner for the 75th anniversary will follow the conclusion of the game at the Vidas Athletic Complex from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Drexel Lacrosse letterwinners plus one guest will receive free admission to the game and reception. The cost of the game and reception for all other guests will be $40 and $5 for children 12 and under. To RSVP, please click here.
