The indoor season, played at Tah- Cum-Wah recreation center, was labeled as, respectable by Martin Blundall, soccer coach. Although Blundall was a bit disappointed by varsity play, he was ex- cited over the reserves ' performances. The outdoor season was tremendous for Northrop. Their regular season record of 8-1 led the city and drew the first real attention to Northrop soccer in a long time. In the city tournament Northrop brushed through the first two rounds with victories over Huntington North and Bish- op Luers. Homestead then blocked Nor- throp 4-0 in the semifinals. Although Blundall and the team were disappointed with their play they were happy because this tournament marked the first time in soccer club history to make it to the semi- finals. Three players were voted to the city all- star team by a coaches poll. Dan Mer- chant, goalie; Jason Miller, defender; and Jeff Fox, halfback all made first team. — Jeff Lovell SOCCER CLUB 209

Positive Peer Pressure Partying, alcohol, and sex are all things teens are faced with during high school. These things have become a major con- cern for parents. An organization that helps teens find answers for their prob- lems is Campus Life. Campus Life, a branch of Youth for Christ, brings high school teens together to talk about their problems. Senior Mark Roussey explains, We meet every week at a different person ' s house. We talk about parents, drugs, anything we might have problems facing. We also do things like hayrides and bananna split parties. Students don ' t lead the discussions completely by themselves. They get help from Greg Crim, Campus Life Sponsor. Campus Life isn ' t exclusive to Nor- throp. There are branches at various high schools throughout the community. Meet- ings are open to all high school students from freshmen to seniors. — Shannon Hagerty Pass the chocolate!
