Here is the '95-96 version of the Wildcats. Heights and weights of
returning veterans reflect what they were at the end of the 1994-95
season. I've also included a pronunciation guide for those who may wonder
how to say some of these names (there are some beauties this year).
Number changes: Erik Johnson was 23 (now 2), Tom O'Brien was 15 (now 16)
Non-seniors (athletic eligibility) not returning:
Corey Cash, Jeff Lenz, Scott Robison, Dean Woodman
