Eau Claire State's Roger Scherer will be honored in the 1970 volume of Outstanding Athletes of America.

Nominated by the school earlier this year, Roger was chosen to appear in this publication on the basis of his sports achievements, leadership ability, athletic recognition and community service, and also for proving himself outstanding in campus activities and curriculum.
