business of developing and marketing drug testing products. On June 16, 1997,
the Company sold substantially all of its assets, and thereafter had no formal

interest in the Company, to Michael J. Blumenfeld (9,800,000 shares) and Adam
Blumenfeld (200,000 shares), at $.20 per share (the average of the bid and ask
price of the Common Stock on August 18, 1997, the date of the Stock Purchase
Agreement between the Company and Michael and Adam Blumenfeld), or an aggregate
purchase price of $2,000,000, and (b) the sale by Michael J. Blumenfeld to the
Company, at cost, of all of the assets, including the corporate name, of
Collegiate Pacific Inc. f/k/a Nitro Sports Inc., a Texas corporation, which
company was formed in 1997 to engage in the catalog and mail order distribution
of sports equipment.
On February 24, 1998, the Company entered into an exclusive
Distribution Agreement with Equipmart, Inc., a manufacturer of rollers and
component parts for the tennis industry.
On March 7, 1998, the Company entered into an exclusive Distribution
Agreement with FunNets, Inc., a manufacturer of plastic frames and nets used as

On May 31, 1998, Vantage Products International, Inc., a distributor of
baseball netting and other related baseball products, merged with and into the
Company.
THE COMPANY
The Company is in the business of the mail order marketing of sports
equipment primarily to institutional customers located throughout the United
States. The Company's principal customers include country clubs, schools, YMCAs
and YWCAs (and similar recreational organizations), municipal recreation
departments, and other governmental agencies. The Company offers a broad line of
sporting equipment, including inflatable balls, nets for various sports,
standards and goals for sports, weight lifting equipment, and other recreational
products, and provides after sale customer service through toll-free numbers.
The Company believes that prompt delivery of a broad range of products at
competitive prices, coupled with prompt, accessible customer service,
differentiates the
4
<PAGE> 6
Company from its competitors. The Company currently markets approximately 500
sports related equipment products to over 200,000 potential institutional,
retail, mass merchant, and team dealer customers. Since commencing operations,
the Company has sold products to approximately 10,000 customers.
The Company currently has a master mailing list of over 200,000
potential customers and intends to distribute approximately 700,000 catalogs and
fliers to this audience during Fiscal Year 1999. This mailing list, which has
been developed under the supervision of the President of the Company, who has 25
years of experience in the industry, is carefully maintained, screened, and
cross-checked. The master mailing list is subdivided into various combinations
designed to place catalogs in the hands of individual purchase decision makers.
The master mailing list is also subdivided by relevant product types, seasons,
and customer profiles. The Company also uses other forms of solicitations such
as trade shows, telemarketing, broadcast fax programs, and the Internet.
The Company was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1987. The Company's
executive offices are located at 13950 Senlac, Suite 200, Farmers Branch, Texas
75235, and its telephone number at that location is (972) 243-8100.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The sale of the Shares offered hereby may be effected from time to time
directly or by one or more broker-dealers or agents in one or more transactions
on the Bulletin Board, in negotiated transactions, or through a combination of
such methods of distribution, at prices related to prevailing market prices or
at negotiated prices.
In the event one or more broker-dealers or agents agree to sell the
Shares, they may do so by purchasing the Shares as principals or by selling the
Shares as agent for the Selling Shareholders. Any such broker-dealers may
receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from
the Selling Shareholders or the purchasers of the Shares for which such
broker-dealer may act as agent or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which
compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary
compensation).
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any
person engaged in a distribution of the Shares may not simultaneously engage in
market-making activities with respect to the Company's Common Stock for the
applicable period under Regulation M of the Exchange Act prior to the
commencement of such distribution. In addition and without limiting the
foregoing, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without
limitation, Regulation M, which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and
sales of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders. All of the foregoing may affect
the marketability of the Shares.
In order to comply with certain states' securities laws, if applicable,
the Common Stock will be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or
licensed brokers or dealers. In certain states, the Common Stock may not be sold
unless the Common Stock has been registered or qualified for sale in such state
or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied
with.
The shares being registered by Mr. Blumenfeld are not intended for
resale to the public. Instead, the shares are being registered for the purposes
of collateralizing commercial bank lines or other forms of credit for the
benefit of the Company.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the offering.

RISK FACTORS
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK
FACTORS AND CAUTIONARY WARNINGS BEFORE MAKING AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK
OFFERED IN THIS PROSPECTUS. THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES DESCRIBED BELOW ARE NOT
THE ONLY ONES FACING THE COMPANY. ADDITIONAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT THE
COMPANY IS UNAWARE OF OR THAT THE COMPANY CURRENTLY THINKS ARE IMMATERIAL MAY
ALSO IMPAIR THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS OPERATIONS. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS
ACTUALLY OCCUR, THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION, OR RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS COULD BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED. IN SUCH CASE, THE TRADING
PRICE OF THE COMMON STOCK COULD DECLINE, AND INVESTORS COULD LOSE ALL OR PART OF
ANY INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD ALSO REFER TO
THE OTHER INFORMATION SET FORTH IN THIS PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING THE COMPANY'S
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE RELATED NOTES.
LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY
The Company has a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of
the Company and its prospects can be based. The Company only recently entered
into the catalog and mail-order distribution of sporting goods and has incurred
losses of approximately $680,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998, which
includes operating losses, the merger, and developmental expenses. The
Company's prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and
difficulties frequently encountered by start up companies in the marketing
industry. To address these risks, the Company must, among other things,
effectively develop new relationships and maintain existing relationships with
its suppliers, advertisers and customers, provide products at competitive
prices, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain, and motivate
qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in
addressing such risks and the failure to do so could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition, or results of
operations.
Additionally, the limited operating history of the Company makes the
prediction of future operating results difficult or impossible, and there can be
no assurance that the Company's revenues will increase or even continue at their
current level or that the Company will attain profitability or generate cash
from operations in future periods.
COMPETITION
The sports related equipment market in which the Company participates
is highly competitive. The Company competes principally in the institutional
market with local sporting goods dealers, as well as other direct mail
companies. The Company is a new entrant in this market and had sales of
approximately $3,285,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998. Most of the
Company's direct mail competitors have substantially greater financial
resources, a larger customer base, and greater name recognition within the
industry than the Company. In addition, the Company's competitors may have
larger technical, sales, and marketing resources than the Company. The Company
competes on a number of factors, including price, relationships with customers,
name recognition, product availability, and quality of service. The Company
cannot assure investors that it will compete successfully against its
competitors in the future. If the Company fails to compete successfully, its
business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and
adversely affected.
POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS; SEASONALITY
The Company's quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly
in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside the
Company's control. The Company anticipates that its revenues will peak in the
first and second calendar quarters of each year due primarily to the budgeting
procedures of many of its customers, payment cycles, and the seasonal demand for
the products offered by the Company. The fourth calendar quarter generally
experiences lower revenues due to lessening customer demand as a result of
decreased sports activities, adverse weather conditions inhibiting customer
demand, holiday seasons, and school recesses. The Company does not believe that
quarter-to-quarter comparisons of operating results for preceding quarters are
necessarily meaningful. Investors should not rely on the results of one quarter
as an indication of the Company's future performance.
7
<PAGE> 9
MANAGING POTENTIAL GROWTH
The Company has rapidly and significantly expanded its operations, both
internally and through the acquisition of other companies, and anticipates that
further expansion of its operations and other acquisitions may be required in
order to address potential market opportunities. This rapid growth has placed,
and is expected to continue to place, a strain on the Company's management and
operational resources. There can be no assurance that the Company's current
personnel, systems, procedures, and controls will be adequate to support the
Company's future operations, that management will be able to identify, hire,
train, motivate, or manage required personnel, or that management will be able
to successfully identify and exploit existing and potential market
opportunities. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, the
Company's business, financial condition, and operating results will be
materially and adversely affected.
FUTURE CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Company's cash flow from existing operations may be insufficient to
support the Company's intended expansion of operations or to support future
acquisitions. The Company incurred losses of approximately $680,000 for the
year ended June 30, 1998. The Company has been funding its operations primarily
from the sale of stock to Mr. Blumenfeld and others in February and March of
1998 and working capital loans from Mr. Blumenfeld. The Company may be required
to seek third-party financing to raise additional capital needed to support any
future growth. There can be no assurance that such additional funding will be
available on acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available
from third parties and if Mr. Blumenfeld is unwilling or unable to make
additional loans, the Company may be required to forego strategic decisions or
delay, scale back, or eliminate certain aspects of its operations, which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition,
and results of operations.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
The Company's performance is substantially dependent on the skills,
experience, and performance of its President and Chief Executive Officer,
Michael J. Blumenfeld, as well as on the Company's ability to retain and
motivate its other officers and key employees. The Company does not have an
employment agreement with Mr. Blumenfeld. The Company does not have "key person"
life insurance policies on any of its officers or other employees.
RISKS RELATED TO INTERNATIONAL SUPPLIERS
The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from sales of
products purchased directly from suppliers in the Far East. In addition, the
Company believes that many of the products it purchases from domestic suppliers
are produced by foreign manufacturers. Accordingly, the Company is subject to
the risks of this international component to its business, including shipment
delays, fluctuation in exchange rates, increases in import duties, changes in
custom regulations, adverse economic conditions in foreign countries, and
political turmoil. The occurrence of any one or more of the foregoing could
materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and
result of operations.
RELIANCE ON THIRD PARTY CARRIERS
The Company's operations depend upon third party carriers to deliver
its catalogs and products to its customers. The operations of such carriers are
outside the Company's control. Accordingly, the Company's business reputation
and operations are subject to many risks, including shipment delays caused by
such carriers, labor strikes by the employees of such carriers, increases in
delivery cost, postage rate increases, and other adverse economic conditions.
The occurrence of any one or more of the foregoing could adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
CONTROL BY MAJOR STOCKHOLDER
Michael J. Blumenfeld, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
of the Company, currently owns 9,800,000 shares of Common Stock, or 57.6% of
the Company's outstanding voting Common Stock. Upon completion of this
offering, Mr. Blumenfeld will own 9,800,000 shares of Common Stock, or
8
<PAGE> 10
57.6% of the Company's outstanding voting Common Stock. As a result, Mr.
Blumenfeld has the power to initiate or block corporate actions such as an
amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the consummation of any
merger, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. In
addition, Mr. Blumenfeld may control the election of directors and any other
action requiring stockholder approval.
POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE
Historically, the market price of the Common Stock has been highly
volatile and it is likely to continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in the
future. The price of the Common Stock is determined in the marketplace and may
be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity of the market
for the Common Stock, investor perception of the Company and the industry within
which it competes, quarterly variations in operating results, and general
economic and market conditions. Historically, the weekly trading volume of the
Common Stock has been relatively small. Upon completion of the offering, the
public float of the Common Stock (the amount of Common Stock held by persons who
are not officers and directors of the Company) will substantially increase. The
increase in public float could have a significant impact on the price of the
Common Stock. In addition, the stock market has, on occasion, experienced
extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often particularly affected
market prices for smaller companies and that often have been unrelated or
disproportionate to the operating performance of the affected companies, and the
price of the Common Stock could be affected by such fluctuations.
THE COMPANY
BUSINESS
The Company is in the business of the mail order marketing of sports
equipment primarily to institutional customers located throughout the United
States. The Company's principal customers include country clubs, schools, YMCAs
and YWCAs (and similar recreational organizations), municipal recreation
departments, and other governmental agencies. The Company offers a broad line of
sporting equipment, including inflatable balls, nets for various sports,
standards and goals for sports, weight lifting equipment, and other recreational
products, and provides after sale customer service through toll-free numbers.
The Company believes that prompt delivery of a broad range of products at
competitive prices, coupled with prompt, accessible customer service,
differentiates the Company from its competitors. The Company currently markets
approximately 500 sports related equipment products to over 200,000 potential
institutional, retail, mass merchant, and team dealer customers.
The Company currently has a master mailing list of over 200,000
potential customers and intends to distribute approximately 700,000 catalogs and
fliers to this audience during Fiscal Year 1999. This mailing list, which has
been developed under the supervision of the President of the Company from his 25
years of experience in the industry, is carefully maintained, screened, and
cross-checked. The master mailing list is subdivided into various combinations
designed to place catalogs in the hands of individual purchase decision makers.
The master mailing list is also subdivided by relevant product types, seasons,
and customer profiles. The Company also uses other forms of solicitations such
as trade shows, telemarketing, broadcast fax programs, and the Internet.
The Company's revenues are not dependent upon any one or a few major
customers. The Company's institutional customers typically receive annual
appropriations for sports related equipment, which appropriations are generally
spent in the period preceding the season in which the sport or athletic activity
occurs. While institutions are subject to budget constraints, once allocations
have been made, aggregate levels of expenditures are typically not reduced.
A majority of the Company's products are purchased from suppliers in
the Far East. In addition, the Company believes that many of the products
purchased from domestic suppliers are produced by foreign manufacturers. The
international supply of products is subject to risks, including shipment delays,
fluctuation in exchange rates, changes in custom regulations, adverse economic
conditions in foreign countries, and political turmoil, which may affect the
Company's ability to deliver its products in a timely and competitive manner.
Although the vast majority of products to be distributed are purchased
in final form, a small percentage of the items require minor fabrication to
complete. The Company has welding machines and an assortment of tools to aid in
this fabrication process. The raw materials used in this process are in the form
of shipping supplies,
9
<PAGE> 11
nuts and bolts, and other commercially available products. The Company believes
there are multiple suppliers for these products nationwide.
SEASONAL NATURE OF BUSINESS
The Company anticipates that its revenues will peak in the second and
third calendar quarters of each year due primarily to the budgeting procedures
of many of its customers and the seasonal demand for the products offered by the
Company. The fourth calendar quarter generally experiences lower revenues due to
lessening customer demand as a result of decreased sports activities, adverse
weather conditions inhibiting customer demand, holiday seasons, and school
recesses.
COMPETITION
The Company competes in the institutional market with other direct mail
marketers of sporting equipment, local sporting goods dealers, and retail
sporting goods stores, which collectively dominate the institutional market. The
Company competes in the institutional market principally on the basis of price,
product availability, and customer service. The Company believes that it has an
advantage on the institutional market over traditional sporting goods retailers
because its selling prices do not include comparable price markups attributable
to wholesalers, manufacturers, and/or distributors. In addition, the Company
believes that it has an advantage over other direct mail marketers of sporting
goods because it believes that it offers superior products, coupled with prompt
and accessible service, at the most competitive prices.
EMPLOYEES
The Company currently employs 14 persons. None of the Company's
employees are represented by a union, and the Company believes its relations
with such employees are good.
PROPERTIES
The Company leases an approximately 30,000 square foot corporate
headquarters and warehouse facility located in Farmers Branch, Texas. The
facility is under a lease that expires in Fiscal Year 2003. The Company believes
that this facility will be adequate for its business needs for the foreseeable
future. The Company does not own any real property.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company was incorporated on April 10, 1997 and began business
during the latter part of June 1997. Effective February 7, 1998, Collegiate
Pacific Inc. entered into a reverse acquisition agreement with DSSI, Inc.
("DSSI"), a publicly held shell corporation. On April 14, 1998, the Company
acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of another entity. This
transaction was accounted for as a purchase, and, accordingly, the results and
operations of this entity have been included in the Company's results of
operations commencing on April 14, 1998. The Company also completed an
acquisition of another entity on May 31, 1998 by issuing common stock for all of
the issued outstanding common stock of that entity. This acquisition was
accounted for as a pooling of interests and, accordingly, the results of
operations of the Company include the results of operations of the pooled entity
for the entire fiscal year.
The Company solicits customers from a variety of catalogs designed for
specific uses, including summer camps, baseball, and general sports and
recreation. The Company intends to distribute approximately 700,000 catalogs to
current and prospective customers during Fiscal Year 1999. The Company also
solicits customers through trade shows, road salesmen, broadcast fax programs,
telemarketing, and the Internet.
There were no operations prior to June 30, 1997, and accordingly this
discussion covers the year ended June 30, 1998, only.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company generated $3,283,825 in revenue for Fiscal Year 1998. The
gross margin and gross margin percentage for Fiscal Year 1998 were $1,177,244
and 36% respectively. The gross margin percentage is expected to improve in
Fiscal Year 1999. $1,900,000 of the Fiscal Year 1998 revenues were generated in
the last three months of Fiscal Year 1998. The Company expects that its current
business will produce Fiscal Year 1999 revenues of $8-10 million.
The Company incurred selling, general and administrative ("SG&A")
expenses of $1,704,859 during Fiscal Year 1998. A portion of these expenses were
incurred prior to any significant start up in operations. The Company expects
the ratio of SG&A to revenue to decrease as the revenue volumes continue to
increase.
Interest expense for Fiscal Year 1998 amounted to $172,027. All of
this interest relates to interest payable on the note to Mr. Blumenfeld. (See
"Liquidity and Capital Resources," below)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash used in operations amounted to $2,761,611. The significant
components of the cash used in operations includes: (a) funding an increase in
accounts receivable of $634,862; (b) funding an increase in inventory of
$2,149,020; (c) an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of
$645,528; and (d) a net loss of $678,905.
The Company generated $246,434 in cash from financing activities.
Significant components included: (a) $582,660 in cash in the public entity upon
completion of the reverse acquisition; (b) $182,963 used in a business
acquisition; and (c) $128,263 used to purchase property and equipment. The
Company expects to spend comparable amounts on property and equipment for Fiscal
Year 1999.
The Company generated cash of $754,671 from financing activities from a
note payable to Mr. Blumenfeld, and cash of $2,275,000 from the sale of common
stock, such stock being sold in connection with the recapitalization of the
Company.
Management believes that the Company has adequate resources to satisfy
its cash requirements over the next 12 months. There are no material capital
commitments planned or pending. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had no
commercial bank debt, approximately $514,000 in cash, and approximately $686,000
due from customers in accounts receivables. Since its inception in 1998, Michael
J. Blumenfeld has made loans to the
14
<PAGE> 16
Company in an aggregate amount approximating $755,000, which are payable on
demand and bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum. As of June 30, 1998, the
aggregate amount outstanding for such loans (including accrued interest) was
$899,836. The Company is in various stages of discussions with several
commercial lenders to arrange financing of inventories and accounts receivables
as the situation merits. The Company is actively involved in seeking expansion
through acquisitions and/or joint ventures, and the success of such efforts may
require additional bank, debt, or equity financings.
The Company currently employs 14 people and believes that this
employment is satisfactory for its financial performance during Fiscal Year
1999.

INDEMNIFICATION
The Company's Bylaws provide that officers and directors who are made a
party to or are threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any
action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or
investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she
is or was an officer or a director of the Company or is or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director or an officer of another entity shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by
the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law ("PBCL") against all expense,
liability, and loss reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection
therewith. The right to indemnification includes the right to be paid by the
Company for expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its
final disposition. Officers and directors are not entitled to indemnification if
such persons did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the
PBCL for officers and directors.
PBCL Section 410 provides, among other things, that the Company may
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than
an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, agent or employee of the Company or who serves or
served at the Company's request as a director, officer, agent, employee, partner
or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding. The power to indemnify applies (a) if such
person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit
or proceeding, or (b) if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in the best interest, or not opposed to the best
interest, of the Company and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The power to
indemnify applies to actions brought by or in the right of the Company as well,
but only to the extent of defense expenses (including attorneys' fees but
excluding amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred and not
to any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself, and with
the further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in
the event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct in the performance of
his duties to the Company, unless the court believes that in light of all the
circumstances indemnification should apply.
The indemnification provisions contained in the Company's Bylaws are
not exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be entitled by law,
agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Insofar as indemnification by the Company for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons
controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has
been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

Collegiate Pacific Inc. ("CPI") was incorporated on April 10, 1997 and began
business in June 1997. The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation and is
primarily engaged in the mail order marketing of professional sports equipment
to schools, colleges and other organizations throughout the United States.
Effective February 17, 1998 CPI entered into a reverse acquisition agreement
with DSSI, Inc. ("DSSI"), a publicly held "shell" corporation. DSSI issued
9,800,000 (approximately 62.5%) shares of DSSI's voting common stock in exchange
for all of the outstanding shares of CPI (a tax free organization). The public
entity then changed its name to Collegiate Pacific, Inc. The year end was
previously December 26, but changed to June 30, the public entities year end.
For accounting purposes, the reorganization of CPI and the public company is
regarded as an acquisition by a public company of all of the outstanding stock
of CPI and is accounted for as a recapitalization of CPI, with CPI as the
acquirer (a reverse acquisition). Accordingly, the financial statements prior to
the reverse acquisition date included herein are those of CPI.
Of the $678,905 loss for the year ended June 30, 1998, $50,026 related to
non-cash charges resulting from amortization and depreciation expense. As the
result of the February 17, 1998 reverse acquisition with DSSI, the Company
incurred acquisition related expenses including the operating losses incurred by
DSSI. The Company also expensed approximately $337,000 of advertising, postage
and catalog expenses incurred during the year ended June 30, 1998.
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CPI and its wholly
owned subsidiaries Product Merchandising, Inc. ("PMI") and Vantage Products,
Inc. ("VPI") (collectively referred to as the "Company"). Significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CREDIT RISK CONCENTRATIONS
Financial instruments which are potentially subject to concentrations of credit
risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. Cash deposits are
placed with high credit quality financial institutions to minimize risk.
Accounts receivable are unsecured.

2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing consolidated financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates used in
preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market using the average cost
method.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives (5 to 7 years). The cost of
maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant renewals
and betterments are capitalized.
GOODWILL
Goodwill is the difference between the purchase price paid and liabilities
assumed over the estimated fair market value of assets acquired from PMI.
Goodwill acquired in connection with this acquisition amounted to approximately
$552,000 and is being amortized using the straight-line method over 15 years.
Amortization expense amounted to $7,590 for the year ended June 30, 1998. On an
on-going basis management reviews recoverability, the valuation and amortization
of goodwill. As a part of this review, the Company considers the undiscounted
projected future net earnings in evaluating the goodwill. If the undiscounted
future net earnings were less than the stated value, goodwill would be written
down to fair value.
LICENSE AGREEMENTS
License agreements represent amounts paid to acquire exclusive distribution
rights for specific products and are amortized over their estimated useful life
ranging from 3 to 15 years. Amortization expense was $12,408 for the year ended
June 30, 1998.

2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company measures compensation cost for its stock based compensation plans
under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"),
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". The difference, if any, between the
fair value of the stock on the date of grant over the amount received for the
stock is accrued over the related vesting period. Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,"
("SFAS 123") requires companies electing to continue to use APB 25 to account
for its stock-based compensation plan to make pro forma disclosures of net
income and earnings per share as if SFAS 123 had been applied.
INCOME TAXES
The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach to financial accounting
and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in
the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in
which the differences are expected to affect taxable income, valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the
amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or
refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred
tax assets and liabilities.
ADVERTISING
The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred or when such
advertising initially takes place. No advertising costs were capitalized at June
30, 1998. Advertising expense approximated $337,000 for the year ended June 30,
1998.
LOSS PER SHARE
Loss per common share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The effect of outstanding
options on the computation of net loss per share would be anti-dilutive and
therefore is not included in the computation of weighted average shares.

3 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
VANTAGE PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL, INC.
On May 31, 1998, the Company issued 400,000 shares of its common stock in
exchange for all the outstanding shares of VPI common stock. This transaction
was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and, accordingly, common stock,
additional paid-in capital and accumulated deficit at June 30, 1997 have been
adjusted.
PRODUCT MERCHANDISING, INC.
On April 14, 1998, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of PMI for $200,000 cash and 137,500 shares of CPI common stock
valued at a fair market value of $2.00 per share. The acquisition has been
accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the net assets and results of
operations of PMI have been included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements commencing on April 14, 1998. The total acquisition cost exceeded
the fair value of the net assets acquired by approximately $552,000.

6 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of
approximately $680,000 to offset future federal and state taxable income. The
loss expires in 2013. No deferred tax asset for the net operating loss has been
included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet due to the uncertainty
of future results of operations. As of June 30, 1998, there are no other
significant deferred tax assets or liabilities.
As of June 30, 1997, DSSI had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$14,200,000. The utilization of such net operating losses is subject to
limitation due to a change in the ownership of DSSI during the year ended June
30, 1998 of greater than 50%. The utilization of net operating losses may be
further limited should future ownership changes occur.
7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Included in accounts payable at June 30, 1998 is $100,000 due to the prior owner
of PMI. This amount was paid subsequent to June 30, 1998.
8 - STOCK OPTIONS
On September 22, 1994, DSSI established a non-qualified stock option plan which
provides for the granting of non-qualifying stock options to purchase up to
500,000 shares of common stock at the fair market value at the date of grant.
There were 345,000 options outstanding at June 30, 1998. No shares were granted,
exercised or cancelled during the year ended June 30, 1998.

PART II
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The Company's Bylaws provide that officers and directors who are made a
party to or are threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any
action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or
investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she
is or was an officer or a director of the Company or is or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director or an officer of another entity shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent authorized by
the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law ("PBCL") against all expense,
liability, and loss reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection
therewith. The right to indemnification includes the right to be paid by the
Company for expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its
final disposition. Officers and directors are not entitled to indemnification if
such persons did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the
PBCL for officers and directors.
PBCL Section 410 provides, among other things, that the Company may
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than
an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, agent or employee of the Company or who serves or
served at the Company's request as a director, officer, agent, employee, partner
or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding. The power to indemnify applies (a) if such
person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit
or proceeding, or (b) if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in the best interest, or not opposed to the best
interest, of the Company and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The power to
indemnify applies to actions brought by or in the right of the Company as well,
but only to the extent of defense expenses (including attorneys' fees but
excluding amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred and not
to any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself, and with
the further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in
the event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct in the performance of
his duties to the Company, unless the court believes that in light of all the
circumstances indemnification should apply.
The indemnification provisions contained in the Company's Bylaws are
not exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be entitled by law,
agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

ITEM 27. EXHIBITS.
The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Index to
Exhibits on page II-5 of this Registration Statement, which Index is
incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act.
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the registration statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the
form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
statement.
(iii) To include any material information with respect
to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at
the termination of the offering.
(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

Collegiate Pacific Inc.
13950 Senlac, Suite 200
Dallas, Texas 75235
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Collegiate Pacific Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), of 2,537,500 shares
(the "Shares") of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share, as
described in the Registration Statement of the Company on Form SB-2 (the
"Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined and relied upon executed
originals, counterparts, or copies of such documents, records, and certificates
(including certificates of public officials and officers of the Company) as we
considered necessary or appropriate for enabling us to express the opinions set
forth herein. In all such examinations, we have assumed the authenticity and
completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to
originals and completeness of all documents submitted to us as photostatic,
conformed, notarized, or certified copies.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized and are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
This opinion may be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
We also consent to the reference to this firm as having passed on the validity
of such Shares under the caption "Legal Matters" in the prospectus that
constitutes a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do
not admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is
required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.
Very truly yours,
